#873 closed enhancement (fixed)

(patch included) Add user-agent field to trackbacks

Description

This patch (made against 1.5 but should apply to 1.2 with some fuzz/offset) adds a User-Agent: field to outgoing trackbacks. Some users use User-Agent field to determine if the client making the connection is valid, and will treat blank user agents more harshly. This lets people identify incoming trackbacks as WordPress software.
