add `log syslog facility' to use a different syslog(3) facility
Was requested ages ago by Karl Jeacle, now that there is some better support for configuring the logging there's no excuse to add this. It helps with filtering from syslog.d / syslog.conf.
allow to change the logging style; introduce some new ones
add `log style <style>'; The old default is called `legacy' now, a new default format is added called `condensed', and `common' and `combined' to mimick Apache httpd and nginx (respectively) are also added.
fix a reduce/reduce conflict
location -> error and locopt -> fastcgi -> error both end up with a optnl that can be reduced to the empty string.
revamp fastcgi configuration: make it per-location
this revamps the syntax in the configuration to better match httpd(8) (and in general be less weird) and to allow per-location fastcgi configurations. the bare `param' is now deprecated, but for compatibility it acts like `fastcgi param' would do now. Same story for `fastcgi <pathÂ>'.
implement `listen on'
Listening by default on all the addresses is so bad I don't know why I haven't changed this before. Anyway. Add a `listen on $hostname port $port' syntax to the config file and deprecate the old "port" and "ipv6" global setting. Still try to honour them when no "listen on" directive is used for backward compatibily, but this will go away in the next next version hopefully. At the moment the `listen on' in server context don't filter the host, i.e. one can still reach a host from a address not specified in the corresponding `liste on', this will be added later.
