The directive allows to pass upstream response trailers to client.

Neither r->port_start nor r->port_end were ever used.

The r->port_end is set by the parser, though it was never used by
the following code (and was never usable, since not copied by the
ngx_http_alloc_large_header_buffer() without r->port_start set).

Multi headers are now using linked lists instead of arrays.  Notably,
the following fields were changed: r->headers_in.cookies (renamed
to r->headers_in.cookie), r->headers_in.x_forwarded_for,
r->headers_out.cache_control, r->headers_out.link, u->headers_in.cache_control
u->headers_in.cookies (renamed to u->headers_in.set_cookie).

The r->headers_in.cookies and u->headers_in.cookies fields were renamed
to r->headers_in.cookie and u->headers_in.set_cookie to match header names.

The ngx_http_parse_multi_header_lines() and ngx_http_parse_set_cookie_lines()
functions were changed accordingly.

With this change, multi headers are now essentially equivalent to normal
headers, and following changes will further make them equivalent.

In 71edd9192f24 logging of invalid headers which were rejected with the
NGX_HTTP_PARSE_INVALID_HEADER error was restricted to just the "client
sent invalid header line" message, without any attempts to log the header
itself.

This patch returns logging of the header up to the invalid character and
the character itself.  The r->header_end pointer is now properly set
in all cases to make logging possible.

The same logging is also introduced when parsing headers from upstream
servers.

Control characters (0x00-0x1f, 0x7f), space, and colon were never allowed in
header names.  The only somewhat valid use is header continuation which nginx
never supported and which is explicitly obsolete by RFC 7230.

Previously, such headers were considered invalid and were ignored by default
(as per ignore_invalid_headers directive).  With this change, such headers
are unconditionally rejected.

It is expected to make nginx more resilient to various attacks, in particular,
with ignore_invalid_headers switched off (which is inherently unsecure, though
nevertheless sometimes used in the wild).

Control characters (0x00-0x1f, 0x7f) were never allowed in URIs, and must
be percent-encoded by clients.  Further, these are not believed to appear
in practice.  On the other hand, passing such characters might make various
attacks possible or easier, despite the fact that currently allowed control
characters are not significant for HTTP request parsing.

From now on, requests with spaces in URIs are immediately rejected rather
than allowed.  Spaces were allowed in 31e9677b15a1 (0.8.41) to handle bad
clients.  It is believed that now this behaviour causes more harm than
good.

No valid CONNECT requests are expected to appear within nginx, since it
is not a forward proxy.  Further, request line parsing will reject
proper CONNECT requests anyway, since we don't allow authority-form of
request-target.  On the other hand, RFC 7230 specifies separate message
length rules for CONNECT which we don't support, so make sure to always
reject CONNECTs to avoid potential abuse.

When the request line contains request-target in the absolute-URI form,
it can contain path-empty instead of a single slash (see RFC 7230, RFC 3986).
Previously, the ngx_http_parse_request_line() function only accepted empty
path when there was no query string.

With this change, non-empty query is also correctly handled.  That is,
request line "GET http://example.com?foo HTTP/1.1" is accepted and results
in $uri "/" and $args "foo".

Note that $request_uri remains "?foo", similarly to how spaces in URIs
are handled.  Providing "/?foo", similarly to how "/" is provided for
"GET http://example.com HTTP/1.1", requires allocation.

The parsing was broken when the first character of the header name was invalid.
