Two new handlers have been added, dramatically reducing complexity in
select-handler. select-handler.example has gone from 93 lines to 55
while performance has increased due to werc being called correctly in
one case, a change which would have required an additional 13 lines in
version 1.2.
## New requirement:
The cgi handler now requires pwd. p9p does not provide this so you may
need to add /bin and /usr/bin back into $path.
## New handlers:
static-or-index
This new handler calls serve-static or dir-index as appropriate, no
more code discriminating between them for almost-identical paths.
static-or-cgi
This one wraps the messy task of installing a cgi script as a 404
handler.
## CGI fixes
cgi should now handle being given an explicit interpreter, e.g:
/usr/bin/python [options] /foo/bar/baz.py
p9p / 9base path elements are no longer passed to cgi scripts. A
separate path is kept, $cgi_path, set at the top of main.
$SERVER_NAME is now set correctly when rc-httpd is running on a non-
standard port, and $SERVER_PORT is also set.
## Minor changes:
New testing module: form-test
$NOINDEX (option to dir-index) renamed to $NOINDEXFILE. The old name
still works.
