HostDBHash::set_host(): null termination (and lifetime) of string parameter ambiguous.

[ywkaras]

The prototype,

trafficserver/iocore/hostdb/HostDB.cc

Line 172 in bfd5265

HostDBHash::set_host(const char *name, int len)

, implies the string is not null terminated. But it seems to assume the string is null terminated. in line 180.

We also seem to be sending a pointer to a string into deep call stacks and multiple source files, with no clear mechanism to guarantee that it doesn't go stale.
