Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

I have multiple environments and some need a header key with a header value. But my requests collections are the same. To handle it, all my environments have the header key and the header value as variable, but for the environment or is not useful, these values are empty.
The problem is, having empty header key/value prevent the request to be sent by Hoppscotch.

Example without the header:

Example with the header:

This is working with Postman, so skipping empty headers may be interesting to add.

Steps to reproduce

Create a environment variable with no data
Use it as header parameter
The request is not sent

Environment

Release (Desktop app v2023.12.6)

Version
