You write in the API Export docs

that a curl like this

curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: 9koXpg98eAheJpvBs5tK" \
  --remote-header-name \
  --remote-name \
  https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/export/download

would result in a downloaded file named like this

ls *export.tar.gz
2017-12-05_22-11-148_namespace_project_export.tar.gz

However this is not the case for the api_url only for the web_url.

It seems that the response from api_url does not include the Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="2017-12-05_22-11-148_namespace_project_export.tar.gz" like the response from the web_url.

I'd like to kindly ask you to add the response header also to the api_url request and maybe only fix the docs in the meantime.
