On lwsws, incoming ws connections to the default vhost
are not rejected by the dummy protocol handler and not
really serviced either, leading to bots connecting to it to
get immortal, idle ws connections with no timeout (since it's an
established ws connection).
Rejecting these connections by default by adding a handler
for ESTABLISHED in the dummy handler will solve it nicely,
but it will break an unknown number of dumb. protocol-less
user implementations that rely on this behaviour by using
break; from their own ESTABLISHED handler and calling
through to the currently NOP dummy handler one.
Add support to assertively disable the default protocol
index used for subprotocol-less ws connections instead.
Normalize the vhost options around optionally handling noncompliant
traffic at the listening socket for both non-tls and tls cases.
By default everything is as before.
However it's now possible to tell the vhost to allow noncompliant
connects to fall back to a specific role and protocol, both set
by name in the vhost creation info struct.
The original vhost flags allowing http redirect to https and
direct http serving from https server (which is a security
downgrade if enabled) are cleaned up and tested.
A minimal example minimal-raw-fallback-http-server is added with
switches to confirm operation of all the valid possibilities (see
the readme on that).
Until now basic auth only protected http actions in the protected
mount.
This extends the existing basic auth scheme to also be consulted for
ws upgrades if a "basic-auth" pvo exists on the selected protocol for
the vhost. The value of the pvo is the usual basic auth credentials
file same as for the http case.
The retry stuff for bind failures is actually aimed at the scenarios the interface
either doesn't exist yet, or is not configured enough (having an IP) to be bindable yet.
This patch treats EADDRINUSE as fatal at vhost init.
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.
Audit all lws_hdr_copy() usages inside lws and make sure we
take care about it failing.
Also since the patch around aggregation of headers by ',',
lws_hdr_copy() needs a little more space in the output buffer,
adjust one place where that caused it to start failing in an
exact-sized buffer.
Until now the uv watcher has been composed in the wsi.
This works fine except in the case of a client wsi that
meets a redirect when the event loop is libuv with its
requirement for handle close via the event loop.
We want to reuse the wsi, since the originator of it has
a copy of the wsi pointer, and we want to conceal the
redirect. Since the redirect is commonly to a different
IP, we want to keep the wsi alive while closing its
socket cleanly. That's not too difficult, unless you are
using uv.
With UV the comoposed watcher is a disaster, since after
the close is requested the wsi will start to reconnect.
We tried to deal with that by copying the uv handle and
freeing it when the handle close finalizes. But it turns
out the handle is in a linked-list scheme in uv.
This patch hopefully finally solves it by giving the uv
handle its own allocation from the start. When we want
to close the socket and reuse the wsi, we simply take
responsibility for freeing the handle and set the wsi
watcher pointer to NULL.
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.
