url copy function should duplicate host fields
----------------------------------------------

                 Key: TS-236
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-236
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Manjesh Nilange
            Assignee: Manjesh Nilange
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.0.0a


The change for https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-185 makes sure that 
url_host_set() doesn't free/reallocate new memory on every call, but optimally 
grows the buffer. The old approach used to work as a copy-on-write mechanism 
when a URL object was cloned. A url_host_set() on either object decoupled the 
the host pointers from both objects pointing to the same location. The new 
approach however does not free/reallocate on every url_host_set() and there is 
a chance that upon cloning (which url_copy_onto() does) that both objects' host 
pointers will continue to point to the same location. To fix this, 
url_copy_onto() should duplicate the host string.

Also from TS-185, the addition of m_capacity_host has to be changed. The new 
member should be added towards the end of the class as this affects 
unmarshalling new classes from old cache files.
