    The HttpHost InetAddress constructor will use the InetAddress#getHostNam...

    ...e (rather than InetAddress#getHostAddress) when provided with an 
InetAddress.
    
    System.out.println(new HttpHost(InetAddress.getByAddress("127.0.0.1", new 
byte[] {127,0,0,1}), 80, "http"));
    System.out.println(new HttpHost(InetAddress.getByAddress(new byte[] 
{127,0,0,1}), 80, "http"));
    System.out.println(new HttpHost(InetAddress.getByAddress("somehost", new 
byte[] {127,0,0,1}), 80, "http"));
    
    Produces:
    http://127.0.0.1:80
    http://localhost:80
    http://somehost:80
    
    This ensures that HttpHost#getHostName reflects the name wish to use 
(rather than the IP address).  Which can be important, for example with Cookie 
domains and HTTP Host: headers.
