url-fetch with referer

Hi,

I've hit a source archive which won't get downloaded properly with
url-fetch.

This is because the hosting site requires a "referer", and url-fetch
does not seem to provide any.

For instance

  wget https://foo/bar.zip

fails, while

  wget --referer https://foo https://foo/bar.zip

works.

Can we set a referer in url-fetch, or at least provide an option?  Thoughts?
