Interally within WMF we do not access the API servers via external hostnames, but we need to access the APIs for a given wiki via our internal appserver endpoint. Currently this is not possible as using the appserver hostname directly doesn't set a valid Host header for a wiki. This change adds an `origin` parameter to the Session object which allows the host to be used as the HTTP Host header while connecting to the IP or hostname of the given `origin`.
