Don't add the host to the target name if it wasn't given originally #23

Currently, the target_name is updated to include the host the first time a request header is generated if the target_name is a string without an '@'. This locks the user into using only a single host, defeating the purpose of storing the contexts on a hostname basis.

I've updated the code to not update the target_name inplace and instead just use it to create the security context.

Hmm. This is a bit scope creep, but I wonder if we ought to have some docs for how to use a context on multiple hosts, or maybe a test. Unfortunately I didn't have this use case in mind when porting, so target_name is poorly named - it should probably mention the behavior with respect to "@" for clarity.

Let me know if you'd prefer me to make those changes.

It's half designed already multiple hosts, so I would say it's probably best to support it completely. Feel free to make the changes when you have time, I'm definitely not an expert on that part.

Previously, the Name was stored the first time the request header was
generated.  This locked the user into using only a single host,
defeating the purpose of storing the contexts on a hostname basis.  Fix
this by not storing the Name object.
