MEDIUM: patterns: the hdr() pattern is now of type string

This pattern previously was limited to type IP. With the new header
extraction function, it becomes possible to extract strings, so that
the header can be returned as a string. This will not change anything
to existing configs, as string will automatically be converted to IP
when needed. However, new configs will be able to use IPv6 addresses
from headers in stick-tables, as well as stick on any non-IP header
(eg: host, user-agent, ...).
