Willy Tarreau 1c8d32bb62 MAJOR: stream: store the target address into s->target_addr
When forcing the outgoing address of a connection, till now we used to
allocate this outgoing connection and set the address into it, then set
SF_ADDR_SET. With connection reuse this causes a whole lot of issues and
difficulties in the code.

Thanks to the previous changes, it is now possible to store the target
address into the stream instead, and copy the address from the stream to
the connection when initializing the connection. assign_server_address()
does this and as a result SF_ADDR_SET now reflects the presence of the
target address in the stream, not in the connection. The http_proxy mode,
the peers and the master's CLI now use the same mechanism. For now the
existing connection code was not removed to limit the amount of tricky
changes, but the allocated connection is not used anymore.

This change also revealed a latent issue that we've been having around
option http_proxy : the address was set in the connection but neither the
SF_ADDR_SET nor the SF_ASSIGNED flags were set. It looks like the connection
could establish only due to the fact that it existed with a non-null
destination address.
