Core Rule Set: gitea's ordinary requests pass by default (closes #198)
check / check (push) Failing after 13m57s

The eighth change, internal/waf/gitea.conf, has the fields where gitea
sends a search, a file name or a branch name skip the rules that refused
ordinary gitea requests, on gitea's paths only. Referer skips 944130 too.
A registry's layer reuse skips 932260 on from, the seventh change.

The new setting SWWAF_CORE_RULE_SET_EXCLUSIONS_FILE loads an operator's
own exclusions before the Core Rule Set's rules. A set file that cannot
be read, does not parse or names smallwebwaf's own ids stops the start
in every mode.

A test sends the recorded gitea requests at the defaults, none refused,
and three attacks, all refused.

the Core Rule Set reads, a size of at most `64K`. A question carries no more
of a body than 64 KiB, and the Core Rule Set reads at most 64 KiB less one
byte of it, whatever the value (see "The answer" in [`SPEC.md`](../SPEC.md)).
- `SWWAF_CORE_RULE_SET_EXCLUSIONS_FILE` (default unset): a file of Core Rule Set
exclusions, written as Coraza directives. It is loaded before the Core Rule
Set's rules, so it holds only `SecAction` and `SecRule` lines that exclude
with `ctl:ruleRemoveTargetById` or `ctl:ruleRemoveById`. A file that cannot be
read or does not parse stops the start, whatever `SWWAF_WAF_MODE` is. So does
a file that names a number from 900000 to 900999 outside a comment, alone or
in a range. It has no `_FILE` form.
- `SWWAF_ERROR_BURST_THRESHOLD` (default `30`): the most refusals of one client
in a minute (see "Attack detection" in `SPEC.md`). A count or `off`.
