`X-Dashboard-Uid`, `X-Datasource-Uid`, `X-Grafana-Org-Id`, `X-Panel-Id` are very useful headers set
by Grafana front-end that we would like to see on the data source as
well. This is so that it would be possible to pinpoint from where slow
queries are coming in Mimir/Thanos/Cortex/etc., for example. Relevant
Mimir code lines:
0a94f26203/pkg/frontend/transport/handler.go (L182-L184)
Tested manually that with these changes the headers are visible.
Automatically forward core plugin request HTTP headers in outgoing HTTP requests.
Core datasource plugin authors don't have to specifically handle forwarding of HTTP
headers, e.g. do not have to "hardcode" the header-names in the datasource plugin,
if not having custom needs.
Fixes#57065
Grafana would forward the X-Grafana-User header to backend plugin request when
dataproxy.send_user_header is enabled. In addition, X-Grafana-User will be automatically
forwarded in outgoing HTTP requests for core/builtin HTTP datasources.
Use grafana-plugin-sdk-go v0.147.0.

Adding support for backend plugin client middlewares. This allows headers in outgoing
backend plugin and HTTP requests to be modified using client middlewares.
The following client middlewares added:
Forward cookies: Will forward incoming HTTP request Cookies to outgoing plugins.Client
and HTTP requests if the datasource has enabled forwarding of cookies (keepCookies).
Forward OAuth token: Will set OAuth token headers on outgoing plugins.Client and HTTP
requests if the datasource has enabled Forward OAuth Identity (oauthPassThru).
Clear auth headers: Will clear any outgoing HTTP headers that was part of the incoming
HTTP request and used when authenticating to Grafana.
The current suggested way to register client middlewares is to have a separate package,
pluginsintegration, responsible for bootstrap/instantiate the backend plugin client with
middlewares and/or longer term bootstrap/instantiate plugin management.
