UPDATE: just the updated clone fix and minimal url.cc changes it depends

This patch includes two bug fixes in URL handling which were uncovered
during testing of the URL logging update:

  * URL re-write handling was not correctly creating its adapted request
copy. The code here is much reduced by using the clone() method. Still
not completely satisfactory (marked with XXX) since on invalid URL there
is a wasted cycles cloning and deleting almost immediately. Future
cleanups moving the URL parts outside HttpRequest will fix that.

  * URL parsing needs to set the canonical field to unset whenever the
URI is re-parsed into a request. This field is an optimization for later
display speed-ups. This has been causing incorrect canonical URL to be
used following re-write. When the cloning above was corrected it caused
asserts in the server-side.

  * To prevent memory leaks the urnParse() function internal to URL
parsing is adjusted to accept and update an existing request in
identical API semantics to urlParse() instead of always generating a new
one.

=== modified file 'src/client_side_request.cc'
+            HttpRequest *new_request = old_request->clone();
+            if (!(new_request = urlParse(old_request->method, result, 
new_request))) {


This is not a bug anymore, but I would still either remove the
new_request assignment inside the if-statement (to remove the
implication that new_request may change there) OR assign it to a
different variable and assert that both are the same:

A:

     HttpRequest *new_request = old_request->clone();
     if (urlParse(old_request->method, result, new_request))
     ...


Changed. This is acceptable for now, given that this will all change again when URL class is polished up. Meanwhile if clone() or its rename ever produces NULL it will leak for the same reasons urnParse() used to.

Commit time?
