When FollowRedirects is true, credentials (Authorization header, Cookie headers set via HTTPHeaders) were forwarded to any redirect target, including cross-host redirects. Fix by marking cross-host redirects in the request context inside CheckRedirect, then having each credential round-tripper (bearer, basic auth, OAuth2) skip adding credentials for marked requests. A new sensitiveHeadersStripRT also strips sensitive headers added by headersRoundTripper on cross-host redirects. This aligns to Go's HTTP client behaviour.
