proposal: curl_easy_setopt should copy argument strings

Hi,

Perusing the libcurl sources I noticed that curl_easy_setopt just
stores the pointers to its char* arguments. So everyone who uses that
procedure should maintain the storage for that strings.

Had curl_easy_setopt() copy the strings with strdup() would solve that
problem.
