[cgiapp] Calling redirect under CA::Dispatch and mod_rewrite

The problem was that I had my application to use CGI qw/:cgi/ in my
cgiapp_get_query.

I changed it to use CGI::Simple and everything works as expected. 

I had mistakenly assumed that importing the :cgi set from CGI would be
OK, but it seems to break many things.

Thank you for your attention
