Work Description: Github user SolidWallOfCode commented on the issue:
https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/1167
Yeah, we had a problem at Y! this fixed. The plugin writer set the `HOST`
header in order to control subsequent remapping, a reasonable thing to do. But
if the request comes in with the host in the URL then remap prioritizes that
over the `HOST` header and things don't work right for non obvious reasons.
Better to have a real "set the host" method that does the right thing.
Technically this could be done by the plugin but the point of the CPP API is to
make writing plugins easier by taking care of these pesky details that would be
the same in every plugin.

> Just setting the host in the URL or in the headers can create a malformed
> request. The {{Request}} object itself should support at {{setHost}} method
> that takes care of the details of updating both without adding the host to
> the URL if it's not already present.
