Summary: httplib/HTTPConnetion: wrong HOST header

Initial Comment:
h = httplib.HTTPConnection('blabla.xx.com:5000")
h.request('GET','/',{},{'host':'www.foo.com'})

should produce a HTTP header "HOST: www.foo.com".
Instead HTTPConnection sends two HOST headers:

HOST: blabla.xx.com:5000

and 

HOST:www.foo.com

A host header in the headers dictionary should override
the default host header in any case.
