mod_proxy changes for httpd 2.0.18-dev

  *) Reverse previous patch since the core reverted.
     [Chuck Murcko <chuck@topsail.org>]

  *) Remove indirection on number of bytes to read for input filters.
     [Chuck Murcko <chuck@topsail.org>]

  *) Fixed a problem with directory listing corruption in the
     PROXY_DIR filter.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) mod_proxy and the proxy submodules now build properly as DSOs.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Stopped the HTTP proxy from trying to read entity bodies when there
     wasn't one (response was 1xx, 204, 205 or 304).
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Made sure dates were canonicalised correctly when passed to the client
     browser through the HTTP proxy.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Split each individual proxy protocol into separate modules.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Added Max-Forwards support for all request types so as to prevent
     loops.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Fix warnings about byte count type on Darwin (connect handler).
     [Chuck Murcko <chuck@topsail.org>]

  *) IPV6 EPSV support for IPV6 in FTP proxy.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) FTP directory filter works now.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Fixed some thread-safety issues with the HTTP proxy in mod_proxy.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) PASV FTP works now.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Reworked the line-at-a-time read from the control connection to
     workaround a stray empty bucket returned by the HTTP_IN filter.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Stopped the CORE filter from sending off an HTTP response when a
     CONNECT tunnel was closed.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Fixed the poll() loop in proxy_connect.c -> it works now!!!
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Converted send_dir() to ap_proxy_send_dir_filter() in proxy_ftp.c.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Major rework of ap_proxy_ftp_handler() to use filters (begone foul
     BUFF!!!). It compiles, but is untested, and the build environment needs
     to be fixed to include proxy_ftp.c.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Cleanup of dead functions within proxy_util.c.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Reworked the storage of the client socket between keepalive connections
     to fix some nasty problems with the socket lasting longer than the
     memory pool it was allocated from.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Fixed bug where a hostname without a "." in it (such as "localhost")
     would not trigger an IP address check with ProxyBlock.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Fixed ProxyBlock bugs with ap_proxy_http_handler() and
     ap_proxy_connect_handler().
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Updated ap_proxy_connect_handler() to support APR, while
     moving some common code between http_handler and connect_handler
     to proxy_util.c.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Updated mod_proxy.html docs to include v2.0 configuration.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Fixed problem where responses without entity bodies would cause
     the directly following proxy keepalive request to fail.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Added support for downstream keepalives in mod_proxy.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Changed mod_proxy ap_proxy_http_handler() to support APR properly.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Fix problem where incoming response headers were not being returned
     to the client in mod_proxy.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Added X-Forwarded-For, X-Forwarded-Host and X-Forwarded-Server to
     reverse proxied request headers in mod_proxy.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) replace INADDR_NONE with APR_INADDR_NONE [Ian Holsman <IanH@cnet.com>]

  *) Fix problem with proxy configuration where globally set
     configuration options were overridden inside virtual hosts.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Fix ProxyReceiveBufferSize where default value was left
     uninitialised.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]

  *) Some small changes:
     - Ensured hop-by-hop headers were stripped as per
       RFC2616 13.5.1.
     - Upgraded version code to HTTP/1.1.
     - Added Connection: close until Keepalives come.
     - Some cosmetic fixes and commenting.
     [Graham Leggett <minfrin@sharp.fm>]
