clear buffer after backend dechunk if not sending chunked to client
x-ref:
"Memory fragmentation with HTTP/2 enabled"
https://redmine.lighttpd.net/issues/3084
remove redundant waitpid() on each backend
(performed each second during periodic maintenance)
Doing so is redundant with handle_waitpid hook since lighttpd 1.4.46
cgi.limits += ("tcp-fin-propagate" => "<signal>") (e.g. "SIGTERM")
send specified signal to CGI if TCP FIN is received from client
(default: do not send signal to CGI)
If chunkqueue size grows large enough in memory to use tempfiles,
write all MEM_CHUNK in chunkqueue to tempfiles to free up memory.
If earlier chunks in chunkqueue are MEM_CHUNK, then a prior attempt
to write was not able to proceed, or items are being added to
chunkqueue as they are decoded from TLS. In either case, choose to
free up memory sooner. This may result in some cases where lighttpd
soon reads data back from disk to send to the backend, but since some
(now all) of the data is in tempfiles, sendfile() will avoid reading
back into userspace, though sendfile() will not be used if lighttpd
needs to read data back into memory to encrypt data using TLS.
previously undocumented server.upload-temp-file-size in lighttpd 1.4.38
preceded introduction of lighttpd streaming options in lighttpd 1.4.40
(server.stream-request-body and server.stream-response-body)
init global config for server.bindhost and server.port after
initializing $SERVER["socket"] so that if bindhost and port matches
another $SERVER["socket"], the $SERVER["socket"] config is used,
as the $SERVER["socket"] config inherits from the global scope and
can the be overridden.

Preemptively cap the max number of arenas that might be created by glibc
Each thread attempts to use the previously-used arena.
lighttpd is single-threaded, so in general, only one arena is used.

also remove some now-redundant tests from request.t
and reduce scripts and directories under tests
(because automake is sloooow and the fewer dirs, the better)
rename log_error_multiline_buffer() to log_error_multiline()
and take (char *)ptr and (size_t)len instead of (buffer *)b
When debug printing request and response headers,
print each header on separate line for readability
and omit '\r' if "\r\n" ends line
improve CGI offloading when not streaming request body
If not streaming request body, collect request body into single tempfile
and use fd to tempfile as stdin to CGI (in lieu of input pipe()).
For prior behavior, set the following config option, enabled by default:
server.feature-flags += ("cgi.tempfile-accum" => "disable")
If there is no request body, open /dev/null instead of creating pipe().
RFC4648 base64url pad char is '='; change from '.' in lighttpd
The base64url encoding was introduced in lighttpd 1.4.38 in 2015,
but at the time, does not appear to have been used in base64url
decoding where padding might be present.
In lighttpd 1.4.50, base64url decoding was possible with %{decb64u:...}
potentially used in mod_redirect and mod_rewrite rules. However, this
is not believed to be widely used, and even if used, it is strongly
recommended that the URLs contain a base64url-encoded string WITHOUT
padding, since padding of '=' might be %-encoded and require decoding
before base64url-decoding.
Note: this change may affect %{decb64u:...} substitution in
mod_redirect and mod_rewrite, but *ONLY* in case where URL contains
a base64url-encoded string *WITH* padding, and that padding had been
created specifically for use with lighttpd, using '.' as padding char

ignore 1xx return code from lua in response start phase.
Since response is about to start, send any added/modified headers
along with final response. (If we did not ignore, then 1xx return
code from lua would incorrectly overwrite the final response status.)
reset config cache for changes to
lighty.r.req_attr["request.remote-addr"]
Changes might affect subsequent modules when those modules patch config,
but does not affect the core config options which have already been
processed.
If lighttpd config needs to be reprocessed after making changes, then
return lighty.RESTART_REQUEST from lua script to tell lighttpd to
restart the request, including reprocessing the core config options.
reset config cache after modifications to uri components
lighty.r.req_attr["uri.scheme"]
lighty.r.req_attr["uri.authority"]
lighty.r.req_attr["uri.path"]
lighty.r.req_attr["uri.query"]
Changes might affect subsequent modules when those modules patch config,
but does not affect the core config options which have already been
processed.
If lighttpd config needs to be reprocessed after making changes, then
return lighty.RESTART_REQUEST from lua script to tell lighttpd to
restart the request, including reprocessing the core config options.
rename magnet_cgi_* to magnet_envvar_* to be less confusing
The (array *)r->env is populated with connection-level env (e.g TLS)
but is not populated with CGI/1.1 environment variables.
Values similar to most CGI/1.1 environment variables are already available
from lighty.r.req_attr[] (or lighty.env[]) which are prepared on demand.

refuse excess h2 streams up to stream id 199 within 1-2 seconds of
establishing connection. This attempts to more gracefully handle
excessively agressive browsers sending too many new requests *before*
processing the initial SETTINGS frame sent by the server.
lighttpd HTTP/2 support limits SETTINGS_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS to 8
and communicates this in the initial SETTINGS sent by the server.

lighty.r.req_header[] allows get/set of request headers
If modifications would affect config processing, script should return
lighty.MAGNET_RESTART to have lighttpd restart the modified request
This differs from the older lighty.env[] table, which (previously) did
not permit modification of request headers.
lighty.r.resp_header[] allows get/set of response headers
(certain connection-level headers such as Connection and
Transfer-Encoding are restricted from modification)
This differs from the older lighty.header[] table, which is
collected and deferred, being applied after the script exits.
lighry.r.resp_body.* adds/sets response body content.
This differs from the older lighty.content[] table, which is
collected and deferred, being applied after the script exits.
e.g.
r = lighty.r
resp_header = r.resp_header
resp_header["Content-Type"] = "text/html"
or
lighty.r.resp_header["Content-Type"] = "text/html"
older syntax (less clear)
lighty.header["Content-Type"] = "text/html"
