What does this PR aim to accomplish?:

Allows SERVER to be the full API path, eliminating the need for the extra DNS lookup. This also allows multiple APIs on the same server (like https://pi.hole/pihole1/api and https://pi.hole/pihole2/api). PADD will still work even if the DNS record doesn't work.

This fixes my original problem I specified on discourse

How does this PR accomplish the above?:

Check if SERVER starts with https:// or http:// and sets chaos_api_list to SERVER.

This is a good Idea and will also avoid potential issues with the functionality I introduced in #450, since it assumes SERVER is an IP.
