Declare a condition to ignore persistence
May be used in sections: defaults | frontend | listen | backend

By default, when cookie persistence is enabled, every requests containing
the cookie are unconditionally persistent (assuming the target server is up
and running).
The "ignore-persist" statement allows one to declare various ACL-based
conditions which, when met, will cause a request to ignore persistence.
This is sometimes useful to load balance requests for static files, which
oftenly don't require persistence. This can also be used to fully disable
persistence for a specific User-Agent (for example, some web crawler bots).
Combined with "appsession", it can also help reduce HAProxy memory usage, as
the appsession table won't grow if persistence is ignored.
The persistence is ignored when an "if" condition is met, or unless an
"unless" condition is met.
