Preparing requests

[arosen32]

In regular requests one can prepare a request using parameters from a session to be sent later:

req = Request('GET', 'http://example.com')
prepped = session.prepare_request(req)
checksomething()
session.send(prepped)

When I attempt to use an OAUTH1 session to prepare the request, it won't sign it and apply necessary headers/params.

It's been a while since I've looked at this but as I recall there was a fundamental limitation around prepared requests: I think that Requests itself does some things after the prepared request object is created which could invalidate parts of the signing process. Therefore we don't use prepared requests at all in the implementation. Instead we implement our own session.
