Describe your issue here

Upon running some code like this:

    Http http;
    Http::Request request;
    http.setHost("garbage");
    request.setMethod(Http::Request::Method::Get);
    request.setUri("");
    request.setHttpVersion(1, 1);
    Http::Response response = http.sendRequest(request, seconds(0.5));
    err() << response.getBody() << endl;
    err() << endl;

at the sendRequest line, the code crashes with the following error:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_optional_access'
  what():  bad optional access

which happens at this line:

    if (m_connection.connect(m_host.value(), m_port, timeout) == Socket::Status::Done)

in Http.cpp
