Description

When removing headers from a HeaderGroup, the header is only removed if the header you are trying to remove is an object in the header list. It seems it would be better if headers were removed that matched the name and value of one of the objects in the list. To accomplish this, I have overridden the equals and hashCode methods in BasicHeader.
