[CMake] Setting a HTTP header when uploading test results

[Maciej (Matchek) Bliziński]

Hello everyone,

I tried running "gmake Experimental" in cmake-2.8.7 on a host that
needs to use a HTTP proxy to communicate with the outside world. The
tests ran, but the upload phase has failed.

98% tests passed, 5 tests failed out of 210

Label Time Summary:
Label1    =   0.24 sec
Label2    =   0.24 sec

Total Test time (real) = 1370.63 sec

The following tests FAILED:
         36 - COnly (Failed)

         74 - Simple_KDevelop3Generator (Failed)

The HTTP 417 problem is something I've already seen, and it's related
to the proxy.

In another piece of code, I've worked around it, by manually setting
the "Expect:" header to empty.

+    c.setopt(pycurl.HTTPHEADER, ["Expect:"]) # Fixes the HTTP 417 error

Is it possible to do the same thing in cmake's test result uploader?
