Authenticate agent requests using Gitlab-Agentk-Api-Request header

Tiger Watson requested to merge 406582-add-dedicated-agent-auth-header into master

What does this MR do and why?

Authenticate agent requests using Gitlab-Agentk-Api-Request header

Currently requests from agentk use an Authorization header, which contains the agent token. In some contexts this header is assumed to contain an OAuth token, not an agent token, which can lead to errors being misreported. To solve this we will migrate to a new header, Gitlab-Agentk-Api-Request, that will be specific to agent tokens.

See #406582 (closed).
