Description
I implemented the subdomain example provided in the [route_headers.go file](https://github.com/go-chi/chi/blob/master/middleware/route_headers.go).
Unfortunately the example provided is not working. The issue is that sub.example.com goes to the main domain page instead of sub domain page.
Can anyone please let me know how to fix the issue ? Or if the below code is working for them ?
I was testing on my local Ubuntu PC and following are the contents of /etc/hosts
_$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 example.com
127.0.0.1 sub.example.com_
```
package main
import (
"fmt"
"net/http"
"github.com/go-chi/chi/v5"
"github.com/go-chi/chi/v5/middleware"
)
func main() {
r := chi.NewRouter()
rSubdomain := chi.NewRouter()
r.Use(middleware.RouteHeaders().
Route("Host", "example.com", middleware.New(r)).
Route("Host", "*.example.com", middleware.New(rSubdomain)).
Handler)
r.Get("/", h)
rSubdomain.Get("/", h2)
http.ListenAndServe(":8080", r)
}
func h(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
fmt.Fprintf(w, "Main domain")
}
func h2(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
fmt.Fprintf(w, "Sub domiain")
}
```

Research direction
Inspect middleware/route_headers.go and run the supplied program using the listed /etc/hosts entries; first compare the request Host values for example.com and sub.example.com with the documented routes. Done means the root request reliably reaches the main handler for the main domain and the subdomain handler for the subdomain, with coverage or a clarified example for both hosts.
