Instead of sending it in query parameters. This way it is not printed in the logs on errors. Also refactored the download code a bit. We still respect the user's `download.file.method` option. We have tests now for the various download methods. Closes #364.
We need to unset the `download.file.method` while running the tests, in case the user running the tests has a default set.

@jimhester do not merge yet pls, tests on Windows are failing.... |

OK, there is a slight problem. We cannot send headers with the wininet method on R versions older than R 3.6.0. Apparently the user agent trick does not work there. |
|
Since 3.2.x the Windows builds have libcurl, so this is not a major issue. I will add a warning if the user selected "wininet" on an older version of R and headers are needed. |
Need to double quote, single quote is not special on Windows.
|
Actually, we always require the curl package if R is older than 3.2.0, so this hardly ever comes up. Still, I'll add a warning for this rare case. |
Older R versions cannot send headers with the wininet method.

OK, I think this is ready. The download code is pretty clean now. |

Cool, looks good, thanks for working on this! |
