Allow for setting the source address for the connection to the origin server
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: TS-692
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-692
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: TS API
            Reporter: M. Nunberg


It would be nice to have the ability to set the source address of the socket 
which will connect to the origin server. Useful when fetching pages using 
geo-targetting and when many different IPs are at one's disposal.

Any way would be a good way to do this, but it seems that per 
http://trafficserver.apache.org/docs/v2/sdk/HTTPTransactionFunctions.html,
something like HttpTxnSourceIPSet(txn,ip) should do, but really anything should 
be sufficient.

{
 /*Just to be clear: under the hood, something like this should happen:*/
 int sock = socket(...);
 /*I need control for this line:*/
 bind(sock,...);
 /*Connect to the origin server*/
 connect(sock,...);
}
