Sometimes, library users cannot return a HTTP response as soon as the
request is received, or the operations that are required to generate it
can take a long time.
In order to solve this, libweb adds a new member to struct
http_response, namely step, which must be assigned to a function
whenever a HTTP response should be generated in a non-blocking manner.
Leaving the function pointer as null will fall back to the default
behaviour.

A malicious user could inject an infinite number of empty files or
key/value pairs into a request in order to exhaust the device's
resources.

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.
