> Need host interceptor for hdfs bucket path escape sequence

> The Flume NG docs specify that %{host} can be used in the HDFS bucket path.
> This means that the 'host' header must exist within a Flume event. But Flume
> events don't have it by default. So some users (including myself) have
> resorted to writing a custom interceptor that adds it.
> It would be beneficial to have a built-in HostInterceptor that adds a 'host'
> header to all events passing through that interceptor. The interceptor should
> have properties that allow an existing 'host' header's value to be preserved,
> and that allow to choose between including the hostname or host IP for the
> 'host' header value.
> The built-in HostInterceptor would serve the same purpose as the built-in
> TimestampInterceptor, which is to allow all bucket path escape sequences
> specified in the docs to be used without each user needing to write their own
> custom interceptor for this common case.
