These changes are in the Git branch at
<URL:https://notabug.org/bignose/debian_apt/src/wip/issue/824908/terminology-header-fields>.

For consistency, the function names and other API should be changed
(so that, for example, the collection of header fields is not named
‘headers’, or that an individual field is not named ‘header’).

If desired, I can come up with a change set to bring those names into
line also.
