Description
When using arvados-cli with ruby 2.3.7 or above, it errors out with the following error message:
Failed to connect to Arvados API server: header field value cannot include CR/LF
The issue is caused by the fact that newer versions of Ruby don't accept \n on header fields, and the google-api-client gem we're using sometimes adds it.
One option is to upgrade the google-api-client gem to version 0.20.0 or above (see https://github.com/google/google-api-ruby-client/pull/648/commits/ee8c922dbf9cef79284d4b83d16d4d73008a6e8f) but that's isn't trivial because from version 0.9 onwards, this gem significantly changed its way of working, and it's not compatible with our arvados gem.
The other option would be to monkeypatch the google-api-client gem from our own arvados gem.
How to test:
1. Build the new arvados gem
2. With rvm install ruby 2.3.7 or 2.4.4
3. Create a gemset and install the newly created arvados gem and then install arvados-cli gem
4. Set up vars to access some arvados instance
5. Execute "arv user current", it should work without issues.
