1835216 - Support non-UTF8 headers / cookies in network events

Status: NEW

(Remote Protocol :: WebDriver BiDi, task, P3)

Description

[Julian Descottes [:jdescottes]]

At the moment, all headers/cookies are returned with a value field, we don't attempt to create a binaryValue field for non-UTF8 headers/cookies.

Note that there is an issue in progress to change the encoding of those values to use base64 and potentially stop using binaryValue but instead consistently use value with an additional type field: https://github.com/w3c/webdriver-bidi/issues/432

For reference, the following web platform test can be used to get some examples: http://wpt.live/fetch/api/headers/header-values.any.html

I might add support for non utf8 values while addressing Bug 1994996. We would still have to add tests here.
