X-Git-Tag: 1.3.2~22

Add proxy Via: header management. Currently, Via: headers can be left
unchanged (compatibility), can be set to protocol and host only,
or to protocol, host and comment. Optionally, all Via: headers can
be suppressed if intranet privacy in companies is desired when going out
over a firewall apache.
