What did you do?

When dumping an outgoing HTTP request with httputil.DumpRequestOut, a goroutine is leaked for each call when the URL is empty or somewhat invalid.

Non-complete? list of URL:s triggering this bug:
"" (empty string)
"http://" (no host)

https://play.golang.org/p/SVU8lqvL0JL

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"net/http"
	"net/http/httputil"
	"runtime"
)

func main() {
	fmt.Println("start", runtime.NumGoroutine())
	
	for i := 0; i < 100; i++ {
		req, err := http.NewRequest(http.MethodGet, "", nil)
		if err != nil {
			panic(err)
		}
		_, err = httputil.DumpRequestOut(req, true)
		if err != nil {
			fmt.Println(err)
		}
	}

	fmt.Println("end", runtime.NumGoroutine())
}

What did you expect to see?

start 1
end 1

You are ignoring the error from DumpRequestOut btw. Not that it makes a difference though. I updated your example to print the error.

When an invalid URL was passed to DumpRequestOut, it would directly return
without gracefully shutting down the reader goroutine.

So we create a channel and signal the reader goroutine to exit
if an error occurs during roundtrip.

Fixes golang#32571
