>Summary: check_http: extra headers and redirect doesn't work

Initial Comment:
Patch against Plugin Version (-V output):
check_http v1991 (nagios-plugins 1.4.12)
Plugin Name: check_http
Example Plugin Commandline:
./check_http -u "http://somewhere" -f follow -k "header: value"
Tested on operating system: Ubuntu
Tested on architecture: x86
Tested with compiler: gcc version 4.1.3 20080623 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-23)

When adding extra headers and doing a redirect, mayhem occurs. The extra headers are free'd in the first check_http() call, making the second check_http() call after the redir() create a faulty request.
Drop the free(http_opt_headers) .
