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

thanks to Bruce Perens for noting it.
This doesn't change the intention or status of the CC0 files, they were
pure CC0 before (ie, public domain) and they are pure CC0 now. It just
gets rid of the (C) part at the top of the dedication which may be read
to be a bit contradictory since the purpose is to make it public domain.

rx flow control needs to handle the situation that it is draining from
a previous rx flow control period, and the user code reasserts rx flow
control partway through that.
The accounting for the used rx then boils down to only trimming the
rxflow buflist we were "replaying" to consume however much we managed
to deliver of that this time before the rx flow control came again.
"Normal" rx consumption is wrong in this case, since we accounted for
it entirely in the rxflow cache buflist.
The patch recognizes this situation, does the accounting in the cache
buflist, and then lies to the caller that there was no rx consumption
to be accounted for at his level.
1) update the logos to svg
2) add svg icon for strict security policy where used
3) define new vhost option flag to enforce sending CSP headers
with the result code
4) add vhost option flag to minimal examples to
enforce sending CSP where applicable
5) Go through all the affecting examples confirming they
still work
6) add LWS_RECOMMENDED_MIN_HEADER_SPACE constant (currently
2048) to clarify when we need a buffer to hold headers...
with CSP the headers have become potentially a lot
larger.

If you vhost->options has the flag LWS_SERVER_OPTION_VHOST_UPG_STRICT_HOST_CHECK,
then if the server is sent an upgrade request, the content of the Host: header is
required to match the vhost name + port. The port is set to the well-known values
of 80 and 443 if no :port on the host: value, depending on tls or not on the
connection.
minimal-ws-server can now take a -h flag to set this. lejp-conf (eg, lwsws) can now take
a flag strict-host-check on the vhost to enable it as well.
You can build lws without support for ws, with -DLWS_ROLE_WS=0.
This is thanks to the role ops isolating all the ws-specific business
in the ws role.
Also retire more test apps replaced by minmal-examples.
This replaces the old test-app for echo with separate client and server
minimal versions.
The autobahn test script is made more autonomous and tests both
client and server.
This adds an lws cmake option that builds all the minimal examples as part of lws,
it's useful for QA.
It adds a macro to examples that depend on a particular lws configuration to understand
they should just null out their project definition in builds where the lws configuration
requirement is not met, and we are building as part of lws.
It also adapts all the example library additions to select the just-built-but-not-yet-installed
library in the case it is built as part of lws. If built standalone, it now uses the cmake
platform-abstracted way to add the library requirement too.
