CrowdSec decision list fetched, kept, and its clients banned until the decision ends (closes #106)
check / check (push) Waiting to run

SWWAF_CROWDSEC_LAPI_URL and SWWAF_CROWDSEC_LAPI_KEY name an engine whose
decision list, <url>/v1/decisions, is fetched every minute with the key in
X-Api-Key, following no redirect, and kept as a blocklist is: used while a
fetch fails, and across restarts through reputation.json. Ban decisions on an
Ip or a Range end at the fetch time plus their duration. A listed client's
request is refused and bans its netblock with the cause crowdsec until the
decision ends; bans.json, ban notes and metrics take the cause.

Judgement call: fetched every minute, not a setting.
Judgement call: a crowdsec ban never lengthens a limit ban.
Judgement call: a lifted crowdsec ban is remade while its decision lasts.
