AssetHelper fopen and assetDownloadCurl additional HTTP headers

[jamesmacwhite]

Description

I have a feed which provides CDN image paths, we have these linked to an asset field to import but the origin server throws a 403 Forbidden error on requests for the image which are lacking a User-Agent value. I confirmed it locally by running wget/curl with and without.

Example error

thumbImage - Asset error: https://cdn.ticketsource.co.uk/images/promoter/banner/66148-1713969775145-m.png - fopen(https://cdn.ticketsource.co.uk/images/promoter/banner/66148-1713969775145-m.png): Failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden .

The setting assetDownloadCurl exists, but the issue is there is no way to set additional curl options on the asset download request

fopen can also provide HTTP headers as well, but this is currently not possible to define without forking or using FeedMe events to fetch the image with a client that provides the required headers.
