use global rather than passing around (server *) just for that
li_itostrn() and li_utostrn() return string length
(rather than requiring subsequent strlen() to find length)
convert all log_error_write() to log_error() and pass (log_error_st *)
use con->errh in preference to srv->errh (even though currently same)
avoid passing (server *) when previously used only for logging (errh)
specialized buffer_eq_icase_ssn func replace strncasecmp()
in cases where string lengths are known to be at least as
large as the len being compared case-insensitively
validate UTF-8 in url-decoded paths obtained elsewhere than from request
(burl_normalize(), if enabled with server.http-parseopts, checks url for
overlong encodings of ASCII chars in the HTTP request-line)
quickly clear buffer instead of buffer_string_set_length(b, 0) or
buffer_reset(b). Avoids free() of large buffers about to be reused,
or buffers that are module-scoped, persistent, and reused.
(buffer_reset() should still be used with buffers in connection *con
when the data in the buffers is supplied by external, untrusted source)
fix bug resulting in status code being overwritten from 301 to 302 if
Location response header is returned by a backend which is not mod_proxy
(regression in lighttpd 1.4.51)
(thx shochodev)
x-ref:
"lighttpd is not obeying the http status code sent by our application (302 sent by lighttpd when 301 is sent by application)"

reject Transfer-Encoding from backend for mod_proxy.
mod_proxy currently sends HTTP/1.0 requests to the backend,
for which Transfer-Encoding: chunked is not a valid response header.
Additionally, there is no value to Transfer-Encoding: chunked from
backend since lighttpd mod_proxy sends HTTP/1.0 request along with
Connection: close, so the backend closing the socket is the end of
the response from the backend.

handle CGI partial write of first response header
e.g. gSoap stdsoap2.c might inefficiently write "Status" to response
pipe and lighttpd might read that prior to the backend writing the
subsequent ": " which marks "Status:" as a response header.

provide standard types in first.h instead of base.h
provide lighttpd types in base_decls.h instead of settings.h
reduce headers exposed by headers for core data structures
do not expose <pcre.h> or <stdlib.h> in headers
move stat_cache_entry to stat_cache.h
reduce use of "server.h" and "base.h" in headers
fix rare race condition from backends with server.stream-response-body=2
(thx abelbeck)

"fastcgi and stream-response-body=2 hangs on last chunk"

When backend returns an invalid response header which is exactly a
blank line (\n or \r\n), adjust the offset so as not to discard the
first character following, which is probably intended to be the
beginning of the response body.
