What's the best way to send POST multipart/form-data, basically replicate this python code in a NR module?

```auto
session = requests.session()
response = session.post(URL, verify=False, data={"username": user, "password": pword}, files={"foo": "bar"})

```

I can set the content of data from a function node with...

```auto
msg.payload = { username: user, password: pword};
msg.headers = {'content-type':'multipart/form'};
return msg;

```

Then send this to a 'http request' node. But I can't find any examples how I'd add the 'files' part...
