stand/efihttp: Work around a bug in edk2 http instance reconfiguration
A bug in the EFI HTTP driver of TianoCore EDK2 causes memory
corruption when an http instance that uses tls is reconfigured,
leading to a crash.
Work around this by forcing a new http instance for each request
instead of reconfiguring the existing one.
The upstream bug report is https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1917
(cherry picked from commit d455cd5ac36f4c1ac76f04e2c2bb4bfb00fe8bcd)
