A data structure that stores a single header field.
HTTP headers can be thought of as tuples of ``(field name, field value)``.
A single header block is a sequence of such tuples.
In HTTP/2, however, certain bits of additional information are required for
compressing these headers: in particular, whether the header field can be
safely added to the HPACK compression context.
This class stores a header that can be added to the compression context. In
all other ways it behaves exactly like a tuple.
