fdevent.c no longer directly uses struct server *srv
srv->srvconf.max_fds (if set) is used to set rlimits
set max_conns in server.c after fdevent_init(), which sets srv->max_fds
using srv->srvconf.max_fds (if set) as input hint
e.g. different server.errorlog for different virtual hosts
Also, support different server.breakagelog to have separate script
error logs, applicable to mod_cgi and mod_ssi exec.
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)
array_get_element_klen() is now intended for read-only access
array_get_data_unset() is used by config processing for r/w access
array_get_buf_ptr() is used for r/w access to ds->value (string buffer)
When the output of include_shell calls include_shell itself,
that second invocation must not truncate the buffer used for the
outer include_shell.
This might sound like a pathological setup in itself, but with
e.g. debian's include-conf-enabled.pl, which outputs a list of
include statements for all files in /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled,
if any of the *.conf files in that directory invokes include_shell,
the parsing of the rest of the files in that directory is effectively
aborted.
This fixes a regression since commit
a46bc4f5de in such setups.

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)
server.chunkqueue-chunk-sz = 4096 (default)
Can be configured any integral value greater than 0.
Value is rounded up to next 1024 if not an even multiple of 1k.
Sites with large request or response headers may benefit from
an 8k or 16k chunk size. Embedded systems might choose to minimize
memory use by using a 1k chunk size.
controls whether default and compatibility modules are loaded,
including default modules mod_indexfile, mod_staticfile, mod_dirlisting
and if mod_authn* modules are loaded when mod_auth in server.modules
and if mod_openssl is loaded when ssl. directives are seen
default: server.compat-module-load = "enable"
(preserve existing behavior)
recommended config: explicitly load desired modules in desired order
enable server.log-request-header-on-error when either
server.log-request-handling or server.log-request-header
are enabled in the global scope.
server.log-request-header-on-error is a global directive since it must
be set prior to parsing of request, and errors parsing request might
otherwise occur before lighttpd config conditions are parsed and set
(i.e. based on the parsed request headers)

server.http-parseopts = ( ... ) URL normalization options
Note: *not applied* to CONNECT method
Note: In a future release, URL normalization likely enabled by default
(normalize URL, reject control chars, remove . and .. path segments)
To prepare for this change, lighttpd.conf configurations should
explicitly select desired behavior by enabling or disabling:
server.http-parseopts = ( "url-normalize" => "enable", ... )
server.http-parseopts = ( "url-normalize" => "disable" )

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
