Returns a list of additional headers that will authenticate 
 the passed call for this session. (This is usually only one
 header, <code class="code">authorization</code>.)
<p>

 If the call is authenticated in advance, it does not contain
 any authentication information. If the call is authenticated
 in reaction to a 401 status, the response header contains 
 the <code class="code">www-authenticate</code> field(s).<br>

The session is notified that authentication failed. (This
 method is not called for authentication-in-advance, but only
 if an authentication attempt after a 401 status failed.)
 The method can return <code class="code">true</code> if another authentication should
 be started immediately.
<p>

 Note: By returning <code class="code">true</code> the session can indicate a "stale"
 condition in the sense of RFC 2617.<br>
