Users might want to know which HTTP operation (i.e., POST or PUT) and/or
resource is being requested before determining whether the request
should be accepted or not.

So far, libweb installed a signal handler so as to handle SIGTERM,
SIGPIPE and SIGINT signals so that processes would not have to care
about such details.
However, it is not advisable for libraries to install signal handlers,
as signals are handled on a per-process basis. The previous approach
would be incompatible if several instances of the library were allocated
by the same process.
Unfortunately, this has the undesired side effect of adding the
boilerplate code into the process.

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.
