XHR options should be added and passed to vast-client

[PidaPan]

There should be an option to define some xhr options for each vast config (or in general) and pass them to the vast-client. The current version of vast-client (not the version used within this repo) seems to offer the following options for vast requests.

• timeout
• withCredentials

My current problem is, that cookies will not be send with the request to a foreign vast url. I figured out that this is because of the withCredentials option which is set to false by default.

This limitation avoids e.g. any kind of cookie targeting and frequency capping using the majority of adservers.
