    A data structure that stores a single header field.

    HTTP headers can be thought of as tuples of ``(field name, field value)``.
    A single header block is a sequence of such tuples.

    In HTTP/2, however, certain bits of additional information are required for
    compressing these headers: in particular, whether the header field can be
    safely added to the HPACK compression context.

    This class stores a header that can be added to the compression context. In
    all other ways it behaves exactly like a tuple.
