Redirected request uses same download slot when domain changes

Redirected requests keep the request.meta['download_slot'] value set by the downloader in the original request, making subsequent requests use the same download slot even if the domain changes between redirects.

This causes redirected requests to be treated as if they were all belonging to the original domain for per-domain concurrency.
