[Catalyst] Bug with POSTs using cat 5.7007, and parse_on_demand = 1

[Mark Zealey]

After spending the past two hours looking through code etc, I finally 
discovered this was a bug of my own making. Basically, I've written a custom 
little FormBuilder controller module that loads .pm files with formbuilder 
specs. As part of that, it specified that it wanted { params => $c->req }, 
which wouldn't normally be a problem except that then in the base class, I do 
a Hash::Merge with some other values that I want. This by default does a 
Clone on the hashes, hence cloning $c->req. This meant that $c->req->{_body} 
was read in the cloned version when ->param was called, but it was then 
called again in the non-cloned version which caused it to want to read the 
data again. Pfew!
