If a request repeats the same header name multiple times, merge the header values into a comma separated string. Previously, only the last header specified would be used. For header fields that are defined as a comma-separated list, a client may choose to send it as multiple headers instead of one header with comma-separated values. The specification says that these are equivalent, so we can therefore join the headers into a comma-separated string. This is specified at https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7230#section-3.2.2 which says: A sender MUST NOT generate multiple header fields with the same field name in a message unless either the entire field value for that header field is defined as a comma-separated list [i.e., #(values)] or the header field is a well-known exception (as noted below). A recipient MAY combine multiple header fields with the same field name into one "field-name: field-value" pair, without changing the semantics of the message, by appending each subsequent field value to the combined field value in order, separated by a comma. The order in which header fields with the same field name are received is therefore significant to the interpretation of the combined field value; a proxy MUST NOT change the order of these field values when forwarding a message.
