'Host' Header cannot be set

[nielsole]

What version of bombardier are you using?

v1.2

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (if relevant)?

linux/amd64

What did you do?

I need to send a custom Host header. E.g.

bombardier http://localhost:8000  -l -o json -p r -c 1 --header="Host: somethingelse" -d 2s

What you expected to happen?

Request 'Host' header would be replaced with my cusotm header

What actually happened?

The Hostname from the URI was taken into the Host header field.

This has been discussed upstream:
valyala/fasthttp#318

@nielsole, thanks for pointing out that there is a way to send Host header correctly with fasthttp. I pushed the fix to the host-header branch. See if it works as expected now and then I can merge it.
