Until now lws only parses headers it knows at build-time from its
prebuilt lexical analyzer.
This adds an on-by-default cmake option and a couple of apis
to also store and query "custom", ie, unknown-to-lws headers.
A minimal example is also provided.
At the moment it only works on h1, h2 support needs improvements
to the hpack implementation.
Since it bloats ah memory usage compared to without it if custom
headers are present, the related code and ah footprint can be
disabled with the cmake option LWS_WITH_CUSTOM_HEADERS, but it's
on by default normally. ESP32 platform disables it.

This allows the client stuff to understand that addresses beginning with '+'
represent unix sockets.
If the first character after the '+' is '@', it understands that the '@'
should be read as '\0', in order to use Linux "abstract namespace"
sockets.
Further the lws_parse_uri() helper is extended to understand the convention
that an address starting with + is a unix socket, and treats the socket
path as delimited by ':', eg
http://+/var/run/mysocket:/my/path
HTTP Proxy is updated to allow mounts to these unix socket paths.
Proxy connections go out on h1, but are dynamically translated to h1 or h2
on the incoming side.
Proxy usage of libhubbub is separated out... LWS_WITH_HTTP_PROXY is on by
default, and LWS_WITH_HUBBUB is off by default.
Several new ops are planned for tls... so better to bite the bullet and
clean it out to the same level as roles + event-libs first.
Also adds a new travis target "mbedtls" and all the tests except
autobahn against mbedtls build.
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.
1) Remove the whole ah rxbuf and put things on to the wsi buflist
This eliminates the whole detachability thing based on ah rxbuf
state... ah can always be detached.
2) Remove h2 scratch and put it on the wsi buflist
3) Remove preamble_rx and use the wsi buflist
This was used in the case adopted sockets had already been read.
Basically there are now only three forced service scenarios
- something in buflist (and not in state LRS_DEFERRING_ACTION)
- tls layer has buffered rx
- extension has buffered rx
This is a net removal of around 400 lines of special-casing.
This converts several of the selftests to return a status in their exit code
about whether they 'worked'.
A small bash script framework is added, with a selftest.sh in the mininmal
example dirs that support it, and a ./minimal-examples/selftests.sh script
that can be run from the build dir with no args that discovers and runs all
the selftest.sh scripts underneath.
That is also integrated into travis and the enabled tests must pass now for
travis to pass. Travis does not have a modern libuv so it can't run a
couple of tests which are nulled out if it sees it's running in travis env.
Since new roles may be incompatible with http, add support for
alpn names at the role struct, automatic generation of the
default list of alpn names that servers advertise, and the
ability to override the used alpn names per-vhost and per-
client connection.
This not only lets you modulate visibility or use of h2,
but also enables vhosts that only offer non-http roles,
as well as restricting http role vhosts to only alpn
identifiers related to http roles.
