Changes with Apache 2.4.11

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2013-5704 (cve.mitre.org)
     core: HTTP trailers could be used to replace HTTP headers
     late during request processing, potentially undoing or
     otherwise confusing modules that examined or modified
     request headers earlier.  Adds "MergeTrailers" directive to restore
     legacy behavior.  [Edward Lu, Yann Ylavic, Joe Orton, Eric Covener]

  *) mod_lua: Don't quote Expires and Path values. PR 56734.

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2014-0118 (cve.mitre.org)

     avoid denial of service via highly compressed bodies.  See directives
     DeflateInflateLimitRequestBody, DeflateInflateRatioLimit,
     and DeflateInflateRatioBurst. [Yann Ylavic, Eric Covener]

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2014-0231 (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_cgid: Fix a denial of service against CGI scripts that do
     not consume stdin that could lead to lingering HTTPD child processes
     filling up the scoreboard and eventually hanging the server.  By
     default, the client I/O timeout (Timeout directive) now applies to
     communication with scripts.  The CGIDScriptTimeout directive can be
     used to set a different timeout for communication with scripts.
     [Rainer Jung, Eric Covener, Yann Ylavic]
