Usernames in the http_URL

[Scott Chacon <schacon@gmail.com>]

I just ran into a stupid client that put the username in the http_URL
field, making the first line of the HTTP request look like this:

GET http://username@localhost:8080/mojombo/grit HTTP/1.1

Unicorn 500s on this, saying it can't parse the headers.  I'm
including a unit test that will die on this, but my question is should
Unicorn handle this gracefully by just stripping off the username -
parsing it as a 'server' instead of a 'host'?  It seems that most
other webservers do, even though it doesn't appear to be the spec.

Thanks,
Scott
