Hello!

I'm in the process of testing an api endpoint that handles image uploading 
and renders back json. It requires a Content-Type header of 
multipart/form-data and an Accept header of application/json. The as option 
allows both to be set at the same time by supplying the desired mime type, 
which is great, but if I want them to be different, I have to manually 
specify them in the headers hash.


Right now, my test request looks something like this:
     
 post avatars_path, params: avatar_params, headers: { "Accept" => 
"multipart/form-data", "Content-Type" => "application/json" }



I want it to look like this:

     
 post api_account_v1_avatars_path, params: avatar_params, content_type: :
multipart_form, format: :json

I would keep around as, since surely the most common use case is to have 
the two headers match, but I would add two new options, content_type and format 
(makes sense to match the name to what's in ActionController::TestCase 
now). 

Since content_type and format are more specific, they should override as if 
it's also given. Another option is to throw an error if both are supplied.

Is this a common enough use case to warrant adding this feature to 
ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest?

Thanks in advance for the feedback!
