MINOR: tcp-act: Add set-src/set-src-port for "tcp-request content" rules
If it possible to set source IP/Port from "tcp-request connection",
"tcp-request session" and "http-request" rules but not from "tcp-request
content" rules. There is no reason for this limitation and it may be a
problem for anyone wanting to call a lua fetch to dynamically set source
IP/Port from a TCP proxy. Indeed, to call a lua fetch, we must have a
stream. And there is no stream when "tcp-request connection/session" rules
are evaluated.
Thanks to this patch, "set-src" and "set-src-port" action are now supported
by "tcp_request content" rules.
This patch is related to the issue #1303. It may be backported to all stable
versions.

The "set-var" is used to set the content of a variable. The variable is
declared inline. For "tcp-request session" rules, only session-level
variables can be used, without any layer7 contents.
