use crypt() instead of crypt_r() to save stack space,
as struct crypt_data might be very large.
While crypt() is not thread-safe, lighttpd is single-threaded

mod_gnutls supports most ssl.* config options supported by mod_openssl

mod_mbedtls supports most ssl.* config options supported by mod_openssl
thx Ward Willats for the initial discussion and attempt in the comments

./configure --with-nettle to use Nettle crypto lib for algorithms,
instead of OpenSSL or wolfSSL. Note: Nettle does not provide TLS.

NB: r->tmp_buf == srv->tmp_buf (pointer is copied for quicker access)
NB: request read and write chunkqueues currently point to connection
chunkqueues; per-request and per-connection chunkqueues are
not distinct from one another
con->read_queue == r->read_queue
con->write_queue == r->write_queue
NB: in the future, a separate connection config may be needed for
connection-level module hooks. Similarly, might need to have
per-request chunkqueues separate from per-connection chunkqueues.
Should probably also have a request_reset() which is distinct from
connection_reset().
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)
add public domain SHA1() if not linking with crypto lib

memcpy() may be a macro and gave error for missing arguement when
CONST_STR_LEN() macro is used (which expands to two arguments)

HTTP Basic auth backends now do both authn and authz
in order to allow provide a means to extend backends to optionally
support group authz
x-ref:
"LDAP-Group support for HTTP-Authentication"
https://redmine.lighttpd.net/issues/1817
Note: http_auth_backend_t digest interface returns result as a
binary MD5 (16-bytes) so that caller consistently converts to
lowercase before using it in further digest calculation.
(Alternatively, the http_auth_backend_t digest interface could have
taken a 33-char buffer and returned an explicitly lowercased hex str)
create new, extensible interface for (additional) auth backends
attempt to handle HANDLER_WAIT_FOR_EVENT returned by auth backends
to allow for async auth backends (e.g. to mysql database)
separate auth backends from mod_auth and http_auth
mod_authn_file.c htdigest, htpasswd, plain auth backends
mod_authn_ldap.c ldap auth backend
add http_auth.c to common_sources for auth backend registration
(mod_authn_file could be three separate modules, but no need for now)
