Proxy: made proxy_pass with variables more consitent.

If proxy_pass were used with variables and there were no URI component,
nginx always used unparsed URI.  This isn't consistent with "no variables"
case, where e.g. rewrites are applied even if there are no URI component.

Fix is to use same logic in both cases, i.e. only use unparsed URI if
it's valid and request is main one.

This makes Nginx's rewriting behavior consistent with a statically configured proxy_pass backend where rewriting of the URI gets honored. Right now if a backend is configured per variable to allow dynamic DNS lookups (in case the hostname of the backend changes during runtime), any rewriting gets ignored and the unparsed URI gets passed to the backend.
