Add custom headers for refresh call

[n0-m4d]

Describe the feature

I'd like to be able to send custom headers when nuxt sends a request to the refresh endpoint.
Why?
Besides sidebase-auth, applications might be protected by Basic Auth (especially during development or staging areas).

Side note:
while /refresh does not send the Basic Auth header i setup for my regular api-calls, /getSession does. not sure why.

Would this be of interest? Or is there already a way to achieve this (besides configuring web server setup)?

How would you implement this?

Something like this would be sufficient, although a hook/callback might be more flexible:

// nuxt.config.ts
[...]
refresh: {
        isEnabled: true,
        endpoint: { 
          path: 'refresh', 
          method: 'POST', 
          headers: {
            'Authorization': 'Basic Yml0asFkZW46a3VuZGVuY2VqdGVy',
          }, 
        },
[...]

(I replaced the default token.headerName with another header name).

Hi @n0-m4d , adding hooks for all the methods has been a feature many people anticipate and I personally want to implement.

I did an initial prototype a couple months ago already and wasn't satisfied by it. I would definitely come back to it in the next year, probably for the next minor release even if nothing else pops up 🙂

I created #964 to gather all the usecases
