access/http: log redirect destination and handle HTTP 308
Previously, the HTTP access module would return VLC_ACCESS_REDIRECT
with no log messages for redirects (301, 302, 303, 307). If a
developer tried to debug a faulty redirection chain, they had to rely
on trial-and-error because they had no way to know where VLC was
being redirected.
A msg_Dbg statement is added to provide a clue about the redirect
destination and the associated HTTP status code.
Also, there is no HTTP 308 check here; it has the same semantics as
301 but preserves the request method. It is covered by RFC 7538 and
