HTTP CONNECT gives bad request line
-----------------------------------

                 Key: TS-920
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-920
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HTTP
            Reporter: M. Nunberg


An HTTP CONNECT tunnel request such as:
CONNECT foo.com:443 HTTP/1.1
....

is translated into:
CONNECT https://foo.com:443/ HTTP/1.1
....

and is sent as such to a parent proxy when ATS is configured to forward 
requests to parent proxy. This can break the parent proxy in some (all?) cases, 
since the semi-standard for CONNECT is a host specification, not a URI.

In practice, for most applications, this issue is quite rare since it is often 
pointless to forward CONNECT requests, unless the parent proxy does some 
special handling or man-in-the-middle operations etc.
