- removed a few useless calls to gettimeofday() in log functions.
- lots of 'const char*' cleanups

- added the new "reqtarpit" and "reqitarpit" protection features
Released 1.3.1 with the following changes from 1.2.15 :
- now, haproxy warns about missing timeout during startup to try to
eliminate all those buggy configurations.
- added "Content-Type: text/html" in responses wherever appropriate, as
suggested by Cameron Simpson.
- implemented "option ssl-hello-chk" to use SSLv3 CLIENT HELLO messages to
test server's health
- implemented "monitor-uri" so that haproxy can reply to a specific URI with
an "HTTP/1.0 200 OK" response. This is useful to validate multiple proxies
at once.
Released 1.2.14 with the following changes :
- new HTML status report with the 'stats' keyword.
- added the 'abortonclose' option to better resist traffic surges
- implemented dynamic traffic regulation with the 'minconn' option
- show request time on denied requests
- definitely fixed hot reconf on OpenBSD by the use of SO_REUSEPORT

- added lots of error counters
- a missing parenthesis preventd matching of cacheable cookies
- a missing parenthesis in poll_loop() might have caused missed events.
- an uninitialized field in the struct session could cause a crash when
the session was freed. This has been encountered on Solaris only.
- Solaris and OpenBSD no not support shutdown() on listening socket. Let's
be nice to them by performing a soft stop if pause fails.
Summary of changes :
- 'maxconn' server parameter to do per-server session limitation
- queueing to support non-blocking session limitation
- fixed removal of cookies for cookie-less servers such as backup servers
- two separate wait queues for expirable and non-expirable tasks provide
better performance with lots of sessions.
- some code cleanups and performance improvements
- made state dumps a bit more verbose
- fixed missing checks for NULL srv in dispatch mode
- load balancing on backup servers was not possible in source hash mode.
- two session flags shared the same bit, but fortunately they were not
compatible.
