Willy Tarreau 6a03a0d86d BUG/MINOR: http-act: initialize http fmt head earlier
In github issue #1850, Christian Ruppert reported a case of crash in
2.6 when failing to parse some http rules. This started to happen
with 2.6 commit dd7e6c6 ("BUG/MINOR: http-rules: completely free
incorrect TCP rules on error") but has some of its roots in 2.2
commit 2eb539687 ("MINOR: http-rules: Add release functions for
existing HTTP actions").

The cause is that when the release function is set for HTTP actions,
the rule->arg.http.fmt list head is not yet initialized, hence is
NULL, thus the release function crashes when it tries to iterate over
it. In fact this code was initially not written with the perspective
of releasing such elements upon error, so the arg list initialization
happened after error checking.

This patch just moves the list initialization just after setting the
release pointer and that's OK.

This patch must be backported to 2.6 since the problem is visible
there. It could be backported to 2.5 but the issue is not triggered
there without the first mentioned patch above that landed in 2.6, so
it will not bring any obvious benefit.
