[Olsr-dev] [PATCH v1 00/18] Add '/http' and '/plain' prefixes to info plugins

[Ferry Huberts]

From: Ferry Huberts <(spam-protected)>

All info plugins support a number of request prefixes:
- /http : forces output WITH    http headers, temporarily overriding the
          configured "httpheaders" value.
- /plain: forces output WITHOUT http headers, temporarily overriding the
          configured "httpheaders" value.

These prefixes have to be at the start of the request string, can occur
only there, and can occur only once.

Note that this will NOT work when there is an internal error (only occurs
when the connection is not ready to be read, which is very unlikely).


Beside adding these prefixes there are other fixes as well, see patches
1, 2, 3, 4 for the more relevant ones.

  info: ensure the request is initially empty
  info: rework HTTP request detection and request sanitation
