*) mod_ssl: for all ssl_engine_vars.c lookups, fall back to master connection
if conn_rec itself holds no valid SSLConnRec*. Fixes PR58666.
[Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_http2: connection level window for flow control is set to protocol
maximum of 2GB-1, preventing window exhaustion when sending data on many
streams with higher cumulative window size.
Reducing write frequency unless push promises need to be flushed.
[Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_http2: required minimum version of libnghttp2 is 1.2.1
[Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_proxy_fdpass: Fix AH01153 error when using the default configuration.
In earlier version of httpd, you can explicitelly set the 'flusher' parameter
to 'flush' as a workaround. (i.e. flusher=flush)
Add documentation for the 'flusher' parameter when defining a proxy worker.

*) mod_ssl: For the "SSLStaplingReturnResponderErrors off" case, make sure
to only staple responses with certificate status "good". [Kaspar Brand]
*) mod_http2: new directive 'H2PushPriority' to allow priority specifications
on server pushed streams according to their content-type.
[Stefan Eissing]

fixes crash on a request that did not produce any response.

*) mod_http2: incoming trailers (headers after request body) are properly
forwarded to the processing engine. [Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_http2: new directive 'H2Push' to en-/disable HTTP/2 server
pushes a server/virtual host. Pushes are initiated by the presence
of 'Link:' headers with relation 'preload' on a response. [Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_http2: write performance of http2 improved for larger resources,
especially static files. [Stefan Eissing]
*) core: if the first HTTP/1.1 request on a connection goes to a server that
prefers different protocols, these protocols are announced in a Upgrade:
header on the response, mentioning the preferred protocols.

requirements of RFC 7540 on TLS connections. [Stefan Eissing]

connection to announce protocol choices. [Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_http2: reworked deallocation on connection shutdown and worker
abort. Separate parent pool for all workers. worker threads are joined
on planned worker shutdown. [Yann Ylavic, Stefan Eissing]
*) mod_ssl: when receiving requests for other virtual hosts than the handshake
server, the SSL parameters are checked for equality. With equal
configuration, requests are passed for processing. Any change will trigger
the old behaviour of "421 Misdirected Request".
SSL now remembers the cipher suite that was used for the last handshake.
This is compared against for any vhost/directory cipher specification.
Detailed examination of renegotiation is only done when these do not
match.
Renegotiation is 403ed when a master connection is present. Exact reason
is given additionally in a request note. [Stefan Eissing]

fields as described in RFC7230. [Christophe Jaillet]
*) core/util_script: making REDIRECT_URL a full URL is now opt-in
via new 'QualifyRedirectURL' directive.
*) core: Limit to ten the number of tolerated empty lines between request,
and consume them before the pipelining check to avoid possible response
delay when reading the next request without flushing. [Yann Ylavic]
*) mod_ssl: Extend expression parser registration to support ssl variables
in any expression using mod_rewrite syntax "%{SSL:VARNAME}" or function
syntax "ssl(VARNAME)". [Rainer Jung]
*) mod_http2: added donated HTTP/2 implementation via core module. Similar
configuration options to mod_ssl. [Stefan Eissing]

to avoid reusing it should the close be effective after some new request

strings introduced in OpenSSL 1.0.2. PR 58213. [Kaspar Brand]

can't create new (clear) slots while previous children gracefully stopping
