It looks like add_header documentation doesn't have our usual
clause for array-like directives, and something like this should
be helpful:

--- a/xml/en/docs/http/ngx_http_headers_module.xml
+++ b/xml/en/docs/http/ngx_http_headers_module.xml
@@ -56,6 +56,14 @@ the response code equals 200, 201, 204,
A value can contain variables.
