// C.1.  Default Test
// 
//    If a list of headers is not included, the date is the only header
//    that is signed by default.  The string to sign would be:
// 
//    date: Sun, 05 Jan 2014 21:31:40 GMT

// C.2.  Basic Test
// 
//    The minimum recommended data to sign is the (request-target), host,
//    and date.  In this case, the string to sign would be:
// 
//    (request-target): post /foo?param=value&pet=dog
//    host: example.com
//    date: Sun, 05 Jan 2014 21:31:40 GMT
// 
//    The Authorization header would be:

//    headers="(request-target) host date", signature="qdx+H7PHHDZgy4
//    y/Ahn9Tny9V3GP6YgBPyUXMmoxWtLbHpUnXS2mg2+SbrQDMCJypxBLSPQR2aAjn
