lws_dll2 removes the downsides of lws_dll and adds new features like a
running member count and explicit owner type... it's cleaner and more
robust (eg, nodes know their owner, so they can casually switch between
list owners and remove themselves without the code knowing the owner).
This deprecates lws_dll, but since it's public it allows it to continue
to be built for 4.0 release if you give cmake LWS_WITH_DEPRECATED_LWS_DLL.
All remaining internal users of lws_dll are migrated to lws_dll2.
Generic sessions has been overdue some love to align it with
the progress in the rest of lws.
1) Strict Content Security Policy
2) http2 compatibility
3) fixes and additions for use in a separate process via unix domain socket
4) work on ws and http proxying in lws
5) add minimal example
This is aimed at allowing a stride to optionally be
given for the parameter name array... this will allow
use of lws_struct metadata as the parameter name
array.
Also introduce the option to put all allocations in
an lwsac instead of via lws_mallocs.
lws has been able to proxy h2 or h1 inbound connections to an
h1 onward connection for a while now. It's simple to use just
build with LWS_WITH_HTTP_PROXY and make a mount where the origin
is the onward connection details. Unix sockets can also be
used as the onward connection.
This patch extends the support to be able to also do the same for
inbound h2 or h1 ws upgrades to an h1 ws onward connection as well.
This allows you to offer completely different services in a
common URL space, including ones that connect back by ws / wss.
