SWW_APPS: an app's Core Rule Set fixes apply only to the hostnames that serve it (closes #220)
check / check (push) Failing after 17m38s

Each app's fixes are one .conf file and one entry in apps. They apply
only while Inspect has set the app's transaction variable, such as
tx.app_gitea. SWW_APPS names each hostname's apps. A hostname gets only
its apps' fixes; while SWW_APPS is unset, every hostname gets every
app's fixes.

A hostname in SWW_APPS that is not a DNS name, such as *.example.com,
stops the start. Unset, SWW_APPS is logged at start as null; set
empty, as "".

a range. So does a directive that removes or changes rules as the file loads,
such as `SecRuleRemoveById`, since none of the Core Rule Set's rules is loaded
yet. It has no `_FILE` form.
- `SWW_APPS` (default unset): the apps each hostname serves. A request gets the
fixes of its hostname's apps only (see "Attack detection" in
[`SPEC.md`](../SPEC.md)).
- Entries are separated by semicolons. Each is a hostname, a colon, then one
or more apps separated by commas, for example
`git.example.com:gitea;blog.example.com:wordpress`.
- The supported apps are:
- `drupal`;
- `gitea`;
- `mastodon`;
- `mediawiki`;
- `nextcloud`;
- `vaultwarden`;
- `wordpress`.
- The request's `Host` is matched by exact name, without its port and
without regard to case. There are no wildcards.
- A hostname not listed gets no app's fixes, so every rule checks it in
full. Set empty, `SWW_APPS` lists no hostname.
- Unset, every app's fixes apply to every hostname.
- Any of these mistakes stops the start:
- an unknown app;
- a hostname that is not a DNS name, such as `*.example.com`;
- a hostname listed twice;
- an app listed twice for one hostname;
- an entry without a colon.
- `SWW_ERROR_BURST_THRESHOLD` (default `30`): the most refusals a client may get
in a minute from a rule file, a trap path or the Core Rule Set, a count or
`off`. The next one bans the client (see "Attack detection" in `SPEC.md`).
