"""
Efficient data structure for manipulating HTTP headers.
A :class:`list` of ``(name, values)`` is inefficient for lookups.
A :class:`dict` doesn't suffice because header names are case-insensitive
and multiple occurrences of headers with the same name are possible.
:class:`Headers` stores HTTP headers in a hybrid data structure to provide
efficient insertions and lookups while preserving the original data.
In order to account for multiple values with minimal hassle,
:class:`Headers` follows this logic:
- When getting a header with ``headers[name]``:
- if there's no value, :exc:`KeyError` is raised;
- if there's exactly one value, it's returned;
- if there's more than one value, :exc:`MultipleValuesError` is raised.
- When setting a header with ``headers[name] = value``, the value is
appended to the list of values for that header.
- When deleting a header with ``del headers[name]``, all values for that
header are removed (this is slow).
Other methods for manipulating headers are consistent with this logic.
As long as no header occurs multiple times, :class:`Headers` behaves like
:class:`dict`, except keys are lower-cased to provide case-insensitivity.
Two methods support manipulating multiple values explicitly:
- :meth:`get_all` returns a list of all values for a header;
- :meth:`raw_items` returns an iterator of ``(name, values)`` pairs.
