More control to response headers

[DonKeyHot1]

Subsystem Server. Authentication feature.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm implementing basic authentication. When wrong username/password pair is send to the server, server responds with code 401 and WWW-Authenticate header. The problem is that in chromium-based browsers it leads to native username/password prompt appear. This is also described here

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like to intercept authentication AFTER all AuthenticationPipeline.RequestAuthentication interceptions is finished. Inside that interceptions i'd like remove headers. (Now I'm only allowed to add headers)

Motivation to include to ktor This feature will give more control to all possible flows including authentication flow
