Installation fails if using a virtual host

Description

Occurs on: install/install.php in alpha_1.0
Problem: Provider account not created during installation process with error "failed to serialize server result" if using a virtual host

Additionally, the install attempt creates .kinstalled despite the error.

Workaround: change install/install.php:560 to your particular server name.
remove logs/.kinstalled to reinstall.

Context:
Partner registration is an xml rpc call that occurs in KalturaClientBase:hit()
The address is given as 127.0.0.1/relative_path install/install.php:560
If the site doesn't respond to 127.0.0.1, the rpc fails.

Additional:
Supporting virtual hosts is probably outside requirements, but it is very useful for developers.

local registration is now done according to server URL as inserted in step 3 of the installation wizard.
Server URL field is ajax-validated (using CURL) to verify that the server URL specified really exists and contains kalturaCE.

This allows the installation as a virtual host.

Code updated, will be included in next release.
