(subsequently incrementally updated using git rebase)
huge props and many thank yous to writers of testing tools used while
developing HTTP/2 support in lighttpd:
h2spec - conformance testing tool for HTTP/2 implementation
https://github.com/summerwind/h2spec
h2load - HTTP/2 benchmarking tool
https://nghttp2.org/documentation/h2load-howto.html
curl - command line tool and library for transferring data with URLs
https://curl.haxx.se/
move code from connections-glue.c back into connections.c
move code from connections-glue.c to http-header-glue.c
rename connection_response_reset()
to http_response_reset()
rename connection_handle_read_post_error()
to http_response_reqbody_read_error()
r->con->reqbody_read() replaces connection_handle_read_post_state()
future: might provide different callbacks for request body with
Content-Length versus request body sent via Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Note: rrdtool counts do not include HTTP/2 protocol overhead.
Continue to count mod_rrdtool per request rather than per connection
so that data is updated after each request, rather than aggregated
to the end of a potentially long-lived connection with many keep-alives.
reset connection counters per connection, not per request
adjust mod_accesslog and mod_rrdtool usage
continue to count mod_rrdtool per request rather than per connection

Even though request headers are per-request, update the proto on the
connection level for trusted (proxy) clients. Note: the proxy must use
each connection only for a single connection from a single client
(typically true in practice), and not for multiple clients.
proto was previously saved on connection level for mod_extforward with
HAProxy PROXY protocol, but did not occur with X-Forwarded-Proto or the
Forwarded request header with proto=...
Before this change, modules which returned HANDLER_COMEBACK could lose
HTTPS=on if the resulting request was for a backend such as mod_fastcgi.
This was reported in mod_rewrite, but could also affect mod_magnet if
MAGNET_RESTART_REQUEST, or mod_cgi with cgi.local-redir = "enable"

gamin should be used instead of fam; fam is no longer maintained
This patch makes it safe to build lighttpd with gamin, but run on
systems with the (deprecated) fam installed, which can happen due
to historical package dependency declarations on some platforms
(Debian, Ubuntu).
gamin and fam are not 100% binary compatible.
(Among other things, fam does not provide FAMNoExists())
