New description:
This proposal is to replace `HttpResponse._headers` with
`HttpResponse.headers` as a public interface using a variation of
`django.utils.datasctructures.CaseInsensitiveMapping`.
It also includes updating tests and documentation to use this, rather than
the old dict-like interface, i.e. `response.headers['Content-Type'] =
'application/json'` `response['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'`.
The dict-like interface won't be deprecated, but will become undocumented,
and tests added purely for backwards-compatibility.
