Makes sense. I had a feeling that we might have cared about NULL versus
the empty string somewhere, but I did not see it in the patch below, so
I think it is fine.

Not a big deal, but do we want to rename sanitize_client_strbuf to
sanitize_client? It only had the unwieldy name to distinguish it from
this one.

The equivalent of free() is strbuf_release(). I think it is reasonable
to strbuf_reset here, since we are about to write into it again anyway
(though I doubt it happens much in practice, since that would imply
multiple `host=` segments sent by the client). But later...

These probably want to all be strbuf_release(). Again, I doubt it
matters much because this is a forked daemon serving only a single
request (so they'll get freed by the OS soon anyway), but I think
freeing the memory here follows the original intent.
