Cancel request by TAG

[eGorets]

I think it would be a good feature for manage queries workflow. Just like in picasso project.

Thank you, that's actually neat idea, I'm keeping it as feature request into 1.5 branch.

@smarek cool, thanks, but in some case I think it would be better to set 'Object' as a TAG, for example, in activity we can use 'setTag(this)' and 'cancelQueriesByTag(this)' in lifecycle methods without String tags.

@eGorets that's what the purpose of Context as first param of every AsyncHttpClient call is. You pass the context, and then you can cancel requests for context using cancelRequests(final Context context, final boolean mayInterruptIfRunning) (here: https://github.com/loopj/android-async-http/blob/master/library/src/main/java/com/loopj/android/http/AsyncHttpClient.java#L760 )

@smarek oh, sorry, you are right. This is a really good job.
