How to complete the challenge `GET /todos XML (200)`

When we issue a GET request we can use the Accept header to request a specific format of result from the API. In this case we will ask for XML to successfully GET all the todos in XML format.

GET /todos XML (200)

Issue a GET request on the /todos end point with an Accept header of application/xml to receive results in XML format

GET request will receive a response with all the todo items
- e.g. GET /todos to get all the todo items
200 is a success code, in this case it means the end point exists and the `todo items were returned
Accept means that an Accept header was added to specify that the todos should be returned in XML format
add the X-CHALLENGER header to track progress

Basic Instructions

Issue a GET request to end point "/todos"
- if running locally that endpoint would be
  - https://apichallenges.eviltester.com/todos
The request should have an Accept header specifying XML format by using a value of application/xml
The request should have an X-CHALLENGER header to track challenge completion
The response status code should be 200 when all the details are valid.
