similar to http_connect for http/post, however the data parameter is not PV parsed this way json and any other content can be used without any escaping

#### Description I have ran into the issue, where a dollar sign was present in the data :
https://lists.kamailio.org/pipermail/sr-dev/2009-March/000898.html ``` Try to replace $ with $$ inside the $var(data), something like:
$var(m) = "$"; $var(r) = "$$"; $var(newdata) = $(var(data){s.replace,$var(m),$var(r)}); ``` This fix is working, but I thought others could fell into this pitfall and have builtin way to send raw data over http could be best.
By adding a module command to send `http_connect_raw()`
I wonder if this should be called something else ... You can view, comment on, or merge this pull request online at:
