Rework how hostname/SNI info is saved (#1330)
Looking at `struct ndpi_flow_struct` the two bigger fields are `host_server_name[240]` (mainly for HTTP hostnames and DNS domains) and `protos.tls_quic.client_requested_server_name[256]` (for TLS/QUIC SNIs). This commit aims to reduce `struct ndpi_flow_struct` size, according to two simple observations: 1) maximum one of these two fields is used for each flow. So it seems safe to merge them; 2) even if hostnames/SNIs might be very long, in practice they are rarely longer than a fews tens of bytes. So, using a (single) large buffer is a waste of memory for all kinds of flows. If we need to truncate the name, we keep the *last* characters, easing domain matching. Analyzing some real traffic, it seems safe to assume that the vast majority of hostnames/SNIs is shorter than 80 bytes. Hostnames/SNIs are always converted to lowercase. Attention was given so as to be sure that unit-tests outputs are not affected by this change. Because of a bug, TLS/QUIC SNI were always truncated to 64 bytes (the *first* 64 ones): as a consequence, there were some "Suspicious DGA domain name" and "TLS Certificate Mismatch" false positives.
