Implemented the "-i" option on ACLs to state that the matching
will have to be performed for all patterns ignoring case. The
usage is :
acl <aclname> <aclsubject> -i pattern1 ...
If a pattern must begin with "-", either it must not be the first one,
or the "--" option should be specified first.
hdr(x), hdr_reg(x), hdr_beg(x), hdr_end(x), hdr_sub(x), hdr_dir(x),
hdr_dom(x), hdr_cnt(x) and hdr_val(x) have been implemented. They
apply to any of the possibly multiple values of header <x>.
Right now, hdr_val() is limited to integer matching, but it should
reasonably be upgraded to match long long ints.
Some fetches such as 'line' or 'hdr' need to know the direction of
the test (request or response). A new 'dir' parameter is now
propagated from the caller to achieve this.
ACLs now support operators such as 'eq', 'le', 'lt', 'ge' and 'gt'
in order to give more flexibility to the language. Because of this
change, the 'dst_limit' keyword changed to 'dst_conn' and now requires
either a range or a test such as 'dst_conn lt 1000' which is more
understandable.
This framework offers all other subsystems the ability to register
ACL matching criteria. Some generic matching functions are already
provided. Others will come soon and the framework shall evolve.
