Description

Many upstream repositories such as PyPI [0] request that all mirroring tools provide a User Agent to identify themselves. Pulp does not currently do this.

Here is an example of the User Agent that Bandersnatch provides:

'bandersnatch/4.1.0.dev0 (cpython 3.8.3-final0, Linux x86_64) (aiohttp 3.6.2)'

And the code that produces it:

https://github.com/pypa/bandersnatch/blob/d816a853b57b1eb38643c4d32a371e67d5fc55a3/src/bandersnatch/master.py#L50
