The goal is to move calls to getaddrinfo() and connect() into net_http_update(). This will make it possible for them to be replaced with non-blocking alternatives later. The net_http calling pattern right now allows callers to create the http_connection_t, call net_http_new() which creates the http_t from the http_connection_t, free the http_connection_t, and then start calling net_http_update(). In order to preserve that, the http_t needs to copy the values out of the http_connection_t on create. This also preserves the http_connection_t values instead of freeing them, so the connection would be able to be used later.

There are a few little improvements that should help both with avoiding blocking the task queue excessively as well as hopefully slightly improving performance and reducing calls to realloc:
This doesn't change any of the APIs or usage. Hopefully it makes the function that does all the work,
net_http_update, a little easier to read and understand; it doesn't really change any of the logic from it though.
