(This is now done, more or less, but noting that it is not a
machine-consumable API.)

Well, we have gone some way into this on PR28284, on various branches
including nsanci/pr28284-webapi. It's not complete, yet the "raw http
headers" aspect is still there, because what headers are available is
unpredictable. But now this is made even more wordy by forking the
_find_ functions into a _describe_ triplet and all the other leftover
work elsewhere.
IMHO it's not an improvement over a single function that returns
headers associated with the lookup. Please let's discuss this again.
