For a request to the given HOST1:PORT1 pair, connect to HOST2:PORT2
instead. This option is suitable to direct requests at a specific server,
e.g. at a specific cluster node in a cluster of servers. This option is only
used to establish the network connection. It does NOT affect the hostname/port
that is used for TLS/SSL (e.g. SNI, certificate verification) or for the
application protocols. HOST1 and PORT1 may be the empty string, meaning
"any host/port". HOST2 and PORT2 may also be the empty string, meaning
"use the request's original host/port".
A hostname specified to this option is compared as a string, so it needs to
match the name used in request URL. It can be either numerical such as
127.0.0.1 or the full host name such as example.org.
