[En-Nut-Discussion] Bug #1799374: NutRegisterCgi() Parameter 1

[Nathan Moore]

The point of this was that the strings that are passed aren't guaranteed to
be constant or even there at all after the call to NutCgiRegister.
They do tend to be constant and stay put wit normal use, but it's not
guaranteed and won't work as expected if you do something like:
   char foo[] = "web_page.cgi";
   NutCgiRegister(foo, bar);
   sprintf(foo, "I like kittens"); // <-- this is the silliness

If this silliness isn't done then you still have the issue that if the
thread that registered the cgi pages exits you lose it's local variables so
char foo[] above would go away.
