TS-4747: make marking parent proxies down in hostdb configurable.
For the use case where a parent in parent.config has multiple ip's for
failover, TS-4747 added marking the parent down in hostdb so that subsequent
requests to the parent would go to another ip/host. For parent proxies listed
in parent.config tat are not using multiple ips for failover, it is not
desirable to mark the parent proxy down in hostdb as the parent selection
system will manage the availability of the parent.
This PR reverts to the original behavior where parent proxies are not
marked down in hostdb but adds a configuration option so that need parent
proxies marked down in hostdb may enable it.
