Core Rule Set reads request bodies up to SWWAF_WAF_BODY_LIMIT (closes #116)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

SWWAF_WAF_BODY_LIMIT (default off, at most 1G) has the Core Rule Set read
form data and multipart up to the limit, the rest streaming on, and JSON
and XML (with +json, text/json and +xml) no larger than it. The part read
is held for the app. A size or time limit met while reading ends the
request. Content-Encoding is refused again on these kinds. A body Coraza
cannot parse, or a multipart body failing its strict checks, adds 5, but
not a multipart body reaching the limit. Coraza is built with
no_fs_access, so writes no file. Rule 900300 moves to phase 2.

Judgement call: Content-Encoding is refused on a JSON or XML body too
large to read, as SPEC.md allows.
