#21991: make headerregistry params property MappingProxyType.

It is unlikely anyone is using the fact that the dictionary returned
by the 'params' attribute was previously writable, but even if someone
is the API is provisional so this kind of change is acceptable (and
needed, to get the API "right" before it becomes official).

Patch by Stéphane Wirtel.
