Subject: Several reads out-of-bound in mplayer 1.1

Some reads out-of-bound in functions asf_mmst_streaming_start and
http_build_request are present in Mplayer 1.1-4.8 (tested in Ubuntu 14.04).
Other versions are probably affected. Upstream is notified.

How to reproduce:

First, launch a dummy server:

$ true | netcat -l 127.0.0.1 5002

Then, mplayer using valgrind:

$ valgrind mplayer mms://127.0.0.1:5002
