Changes with Apache 2.4.36

  *) MPMs: Initialize all runtime/asynchronous objects on a dedicated pool and
     before signals handling to avoid lifetime issues on restart or shutdown.
     PR 62658. [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_ssl: add experimental support for TLSv1.3 (tested with OpenSSL v1.1.1-pre9. 
     SSL(Proxy)CipherSuite now has an optional first parameter for the protocol the ciphers are for.
     Directive "SSLVerifyClient" now triggers certificate retrieval from the client.
     Verifying the client fails exactly the same for HTTP/2 connections for all SSL protocols,
     as this would need to trigger the master connection thread - which we do not support
     right now.
     Renegotiation of ciphers is intentionally ignored for TLSv1.3 connections. "SSLCipherSuite"
     does not allow to specify TLSv1.3 ciphers in a directory context (because it cannot work) and
     TLSv1.2 or lower ciphers are not relevant for 1.3, as cipher suites are completely separate.
     Sites which make use of such TLSv1.2 feature need to evaluate carefully if or how they 
     can match their needs onto the TLSv1.3 protocol.
     [Yann Ylavic, Stefan Eissing]

  *) mod_auth_basic: Be less tolerant when parsing the credencial. Only spaces
     should be accepted after the authorization scheme. \t are also tolerated.
     [Christophe Jaillet]

  *) mod_proxy_hcheck: Fix issues with interval determination. PR 62318
     [Jim Jagielski]

  *) mod_proxy_hcheck: Fix issues with TCP health checks. PR 61499
     [Dominik Stillhard <dominik.stillhard united-security-providers.ch>]

  *) mod_proxy_hcheck: take balancer's SSLProxy* directives into account.
     [Jim Jagielski]

  *) mod_status, mod_echo: Fix the display of client addresses.
    They were truncated to 31 characters which is not enough for IPv6 addresses.
    This is done by deprecating the use of the 'client' field and using
    the new 'client64' field in worker_score.
    PR 54848 [Bernhard Schmidt <berni birkenwald de>, Jim Jagielski]

  *) http: Enforce consistently no response body with both 204 and 304
     statuses.  [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_status: Cumulate CPU time of exited child processes in the
     "cu" and "cs" values. Add CPU time of the parent process to the
     "c" and "s" values.
     [Rainer Jung]

  *) mod_proxy: Improve the balancer member data shown in mod_status when
     "ProxyStatus" is "On": add "busy" count and show byte counts in
     auto mode always in units of kilobytes.  [Rainer Jung]
  *) mod_status: Add cumulated response duration time in milliseconds.
  *) mod_status: Complete the data shown for async MPMs in "auto" mode.
     Added number of processes, number of stopping processes and number
     of busy and idle workers.  [Rainer Jung]

  *) mod_ratelimit: Don't interfere with "chunked" encoding, fixing regression
     introduced in 2.4.34.  PR 62568.  [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_proxy: Remove load order and link dependency between mod_lbmethod_*
     modules and mod_proxy. PR 62557. [Ruediger Pluem, William Rowe]

  *) Allow the argument to <IfFile>, <IfDefine>, <IfSection>, <IfDirective>,

     and <IfModule> to be quoted.  This is primarily for the benefit of
     <IfFile>. [Eric Covener]

  *) mod_watchdog: Correct some log messages.  [Rainer Jung]

  *) mod_proxy: Fix a corner case where the ProxyPassReverseCookieDomain or
     ProxyPassReverseCookiePath directive could fail to update correctly
     'domain=' or 'path=' in the 'Set-Cookie' header.  PR 61560.

  *) core: Re-allow '_' (underscore) in hostnames.
     [Eric Covener]

  *) mod_authz_core: If several parameters are used in a AuthzProviderAlias
     directive, if these parameters are not enclosed in quotation mark, only
     the first one is handled. The other ones are silently ignored.
     Add a message to warn about such a spurious configuration.
     PR 62469 [Hank Ibell <hwibell gmail.com>, Christophe Jaillet]

  *) mod_md: improvements and bugfixes
     - MDNotifyCmd now takes additional parameter that are passed on to the called command.
     - ACME challenges have better checks for interference with other modules
     - ACME challenges are only handled for domains managed by the module, allowing
       other ACME clients to operate for other domains in the server.
     - better libressl integration

  *) mod_proxy_wstunnel: Add default schema ports for 'ws' and 'wss'.
     PR 62480. [Lubos Uhliarik <luhliari redhat.com>}

  *) logging: Some early logging-related startup messages could be lost
     when using syslog for the global ErrorLog. [Eric Covener]

  *) mod_cache: Handle case of an invalid Expires header value RFC compliant
     like the case of an Expires time in the past: allow to overwrite the
     non-caching decision using CacheStoreExpired and respect Cache-Control
     "max-age" and "s-maxage".  [Rainer Jung]

  *) mod_xml2enc: Fix forwarding of error metadata/responses. PR 62180.
     [Micha Lenk <micha lenk.info>, Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_proxy_http: Fix response header thrown away after the previous one
     was considered too large and truncated. PR 62196. [Yann Ylavic]

  *) core: Add and handle AP_GETLINE_NOSPC_EOL flag for ap_getline() family
     of functions to consume the end of line when the buffer is exhausted.
     PR 62198. [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_proxy_http: Add new worker parameter 'responsefieldsize' to
     allow maximum HTTP response header size to be increased past 8192

     of a certificate chain.  PR62112.
     [Ricardo Martin Camarero <rickyepoderi yahoo.es>]

  *) http: Fix small memory leak per request when handling persistent
     connections.  [Ruediger Pluem, Joe Orton]

  *) mod_remoteip: When overriding the useragent address from X-Forwarded-For,
     zero out what had been initialized as the connection-level port.  PR59931.
     [Hank Ibell <hwibell gmail.com>]

  *) core: In ONE_PROCESS/debug mode, cleanup everything when exiting.
     [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_proxy_balancer: Add hot spare member type and corresponding flag (R).
     Hot spare members are used as drop-in replacements for unusable workers
     in the same load balancer set. This differs from hot standbys which are
     only used when all workers in a set are unusable. PR 61140. [Jim Riggs]

  *) suexec: Add --enable-suexec-capabilites support on Linux, to use
     setuid/setgid capability bits rather than a setuid root binary.
     [Joe Orton]

  *) suexec: Add support for logging to syslog as an alternative to
     logging to a file; use --without-suexec-logfile --with-suexec-syslog.

     default if mod_http2 is loaded.
