Even if libweb already parses some common headers, such as
Content-Length, some users might find it interesting to inspect which
headers were received from a request.
Since HTTP/1.1 does not define a limit on the number of maximum headers
a client can send, for security reasons a maximum value must be provided
by the user. Any extra headers shall be then discarded by libweb.
An example application showing this new feature is also provided.
It was found out there was another project of the same name around
(https://git.sr.ht/~strahinja/slweb/), also related to website
generation.
In order to avoid confusion, a new name has been chosen for this
project. Surprisingly, libweb was not in use by any distributions
(according to https://repology.org and AUR index), and it should
reflect well the intention behind this project i.e., being a library
to build web-related stuff.
