Effectively transfering static files in one step from slave to master
connection. [Stefan Eissing]

to facilitate reuse (see https://github.com/icing/mod_h2/issues/128).
[Stefan Eissing, reported by Armin Abfalterer]
*) mod_http2: http/2 streams now with state handling/transitions as defined
in RFC7540. Stream cleanup/connection shutdown reworked to become easier
to understand/maintain/debug. Added many asserts on state and cleanup
transitions. [Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_auth_digest: Use an anonymous shared memory segment by default,
preventing startup failure after unclean shutdown. PR 54622.
[Jan Kaluza]

PR 58856. [Micha Lenk <micha lenk.info>]
*) mod_watchdog: Fix semaphore leak over restarts. [Jim Jagielski]
*) mod_http2: regression fix on PR 59348, on graceful restart, ongoing
streams are finished normally before the final GOAWAY is sent.
[Stefan Eissing, <slavko gmail.com>]
*) mod_proxy: Allow the per-request environment variable "no-proxy" to
be used as an alternative to ProxyPass /path !. This is primarily
to set exceptions for ProxyPass specified in <Location> context.
Use SetEnvIf, not SetEnv. PR 60458.
*) mod_http2: fixes PR60599, sending proper response for conditional requests
answered by mod_cache. [Jeff Wheelhouse, Stefan Eissing]

committed
*) mod_http2: rework of stream resource cleanup to avoid a crash in a close
of a lingering connection. Prohibit special file bucket beaming for
shared buckets. Files sent in stream output now use the stream pool
as read buffer, reducing memory footprint of connections.
[Yann Ylavic, Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_proxy_fcgi, mod_fcgid: Fix crashes in ap_fcgi_encoded_env_len() when
modules add empty environment variables to the request. PR60275.

*) mod_http2: fix for possible page fault when stream is resumed during
session shutdown. [sidney-j-r-m (github)]
*) mod_http2: fix for h2 session ignoring new responses while already
open streams continue to have data available. [Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_http2: adding support for MergeTrailers directive. [Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_http2: limiting DATA frame sizes by TLS record sizes in use on the
connection. Flushing outgoing frames earlier. [Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_http2: cleanup beamer registry on server reload, Fixes PR60510.
[Pavel Mateja <pavel@verotel.cz>, Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_proxy_{ajp,fcgi}: Fix a possible crash when reusing an established
backend connection, happening with LogLevel trace2 or higher configured,
or at any log level with compilers not detected as C99 compliant (e.g.
MSVC on Windows). [Yann Ylavic]
*) mod_ext_filter: Don't interfere with "error buckets" issued by other
modules. PR60375. [Eric Covener, Lubos Uhliarik]
*) mod_http2: fixes https://github.com/icing/mod_h2/issues/126 e.g. beam
bucket lifetime handling when data is sent over temporary pools.

Enforce HTTP request grammar corresponding to RFC7230 for request lines
and request headers, to prevent response splitting and cache pollution by
malicious clients or downstream proxies. [William Rowe, Stefan Fritsch]
*) Validate HTTP response header grammar defined by RFC7230, resulting
in a 500 error in the event that invalid response header contents are
detected when serving the response, to avoid response splitting and cache
pollution by malicious clients, upstream servers or faulty modules.
