feat:$xhr: provide access to $xhr header defaults

$xhr header defaults are now exposed as $xhr.defaults.headers.common and
$xhr.default.headers.<httpmethod>. This allows applications to configure
their defaults as needed.

This commit doesn't allow headers to be set per request, only per
application. Per request change would require api change, which I tried
to avoid *for now*.

* # HTTP Headers
* The $xhr service will automatically add certain http headers to all requests. These defaults can
* be fully configured by accessing the `$xhr.defaults.headers` configuration object, which
* currently contains this default configuration:
*
* - `$xhr.defaults.headers.common` (headers that are common for all requests):
* - `Accept: application/json, text/plain, *\/*`
* - `X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest`
* - `$xhr.defaults.headers.post` (header defaults for HTTP POST requests):
* - `Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded`
*
* To add or overwrite these defaults, simple add or remove a property from this configuration
* object. To add headers for an HTTP method other than POST, simple create a new object with name
* equal to the lowercased http method name, e.g. `$xhr.defaults.headers.get['My-Header']='value'`.
*
*
* # Security Considerations
* When designing web applications your design needs to consider security threats from
