The gRPC module context has connection specific state, which can be lost
after request reinitialization when it comes to processing early hints.

The fix is to do only a portion of u-&gt;reinit_request() implementation
required after processing early hints, now inlined in modules.

Now NGX_HTTP_UPSTREAM_EARLY_HINTS is returned from u-&gt;process_header()
for early hints.  When reading a cached response, this code is mapped
to NGX_HTTP_UPSTREAM_INVALID_HEADER to indicate invalid header format.

The change implements processing upstream early hints response in
ngx_http_proxy_module and ngx_http_grpc_module.  A new directive
"early_hints" enables sending early hints to the client.  By default,
sending early hints is disabled.

Example:

    map $http_sec_fetch_mode $early_hints {
        navigate $http2$http3;
    }

    early_hints $early_hints;

    proxy_pass http://example.com;

<title>Upstream: fixed passwords support for dynamic certificates.</title>

Passwords were not preserved in optimized SSL contexts, the bug had
appeared in d791b4aab (1.23.1), as in the following configuration:

    server {
        proxy_ssl_password_file password;
        proxy_ssl_certificate $ssl_server_name.crt;
        proxy_ssl_certificate_key $ssl_server_name.key;

        location /original/ {
            proxy_pass https://u1/;
        }

        location /optimized/ {
            proxy_pass https://u2/;
        }
    }

The fix is to always preserve passwords, by copying to the configuration
pool, if dynamic certificates are used.  This is done as part of merging
"ssl_passwords" configuration.

To minimize the number of copies, a preserved version is then used for
inheritance.  A notable exception is inheritance of preserved empty
passwords to the context with statically configured certificates:

    server {
        proxy_ssl_certificate $ssl_server_name.crt;
        proxy_ssl_certificate_key $ssl_server_name.key;

        location / {
            proxy_pass ...;

            proxy_ssl_certificate example.com.crt;
            proxy_ssl_certificate_key example.com.key;
        }
    }

In this case, an unmodified version (NULL) of empty passwords is set,
to allow reading them from the password prompt on nginx startup.

As an additional optimization, a preserved instance of inherited
configured passwords is set to the previous level, to inherit it
to other contexts:

    server {
        proxy_ssl_password_file password;

        location /1/ {
            proxy_pass https://u1/;
            proxy_ssl_certificate $ssl_server_name.crt;
            proxy_ssl_certificate_key $ssl_server_name.key;
        }

        location /2/ {
            proxy_pass https://u2/;
            proxy_ssl_certificate $ssl_server_name.crt;
            proxy_ssl_certificate_key $ssl_server_name.key;
        }
    }

This simplifies merging protocol values after ea15896 and ebd18ec.

Further, as outlined in ebd18ec18, for libraries preceeding TLSv1.2+
support, only meaningful versions TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 are set by default.

While here, fixed indentation.

TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 are formally deprecated and forbidden to negotiate due
to insufficient security reasons outlined in RFC 8996.

TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 are disabled in BoringSSL e95b0cad9 and LibreSSL 3.8.1
in the way they cannot be enabled in nginx configuration.  In OpenSSL 3.0,
they are only permitted at security level 0 (disabled by default).

The support is dropped in Chrome 84, Firefox 78, and deprecated in Safari.

This change disables TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 by default for OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
newer, where TLSv1.2 support is available.  For older library versions,
which do not have alternatives, these protocol versions remain enabled.

Previously chain links could sometimes be dropped instead of being reused,
which could result in increased memory consumption during long requests.

A similar chain link issue in ngx_http_gzip_filter_module was fixed in
da46bfc484ef (1.11.10).

Based on a patch by Sangmin Lee.

To ensure optimal use of memory, SSL contexts for proxying are now
inherited from previous levels as long as relevant proxy_ssl_* directives
are not redefined.

Further, when no proxy_ssl_* directives are redefined in a server block,
we now preserve plcf-&gt;upstream.ssl in the "http" section configuration
to inherit it to all servers.

Similar changes made in uwsgi, grpc, and stream proxy.
