fix(auth): Handle when authorization header is lowercased (#10442)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In one of the PRs I did for last release, I switched getting the header
using the new `getEventHeaders` function.

This function will check for two cases:
```
getEventHeaders('Authorization') 
=> 
a) header['authorization']
b) header['Authorization']
```

**BUT** if you passed it a lowercase header in the first place:

```
getEventHeaders('authorization') 
=> 
a) header['authorization']
b) header['authorization']
```

I actually didn't change the logic it's the same as before, but
in`parseAuthorizationHeader`, we used to call it with the capital case.

I know the _full_ solution is to grab the headers, and convert them all
to lower-case, but I'm intentionally avoiding this because I don't want
to slow down handling of every request by looping over all the headers.

---


This PR makes a minor change, and adds some extra tests. 🤞 we'll move
everything to Fetch API soon and won't have to deal with this sillyness!
