Hi,

Thanks for the great repository. I am new to this repository, I was curious to know if there is any support to change the language before I crawl a certain page?

Thank you for your interest in language support! While browsers don't directly support changing the language of web content, our library does support setting the Accept-Language header, which many websites use to serve content in different languages.

You can set the language preference in a few ways:

1. When creating the crawler:

   crawler = AsyncWebCrawler(
       crawler_strategy=AsyncPlaywrightCrawlerStrategy(
           headers={"Accept-Language": "fr-FR,fr;q=0.9,en-US;q=0.8,en;q=0.7"}
       )
   )
   

2. Before crawling:

   crawler.crawler_strategy.headers["Accept-Language"] = "fr-FR,fr;q=0.9,en-US;q=0.8,en;q=0.7"
   

3. When calling the arun method:

   result = await crawler.arun(
       url,
       headers={"Accept-Language": "fr-FR,fr;q=0.9,en-US;q=0.8,en;q=0.7"}
   )
   

Please note that the effectiveness of this method depends on the website you're crawling and whether it supports serving content in different languages based on the Accept-Language header.

We're also considering adding more language-related features in future updates. Could you provide more details about your specific use case? This would help us prioritize the most useful approaches for our users.
