waf: refuse request lines and header lines over 8 KiB first (closes #339)
check / check (push) Failing after 1m47s

The header limits now also refuse a request line over 8 KiB with 414
(action request_line_too_long) and a header line over 8 KiB, Host
included, with 431. Like the other header limits they are fixed, run
first and make no ban. One long query string or cookie no longer keeps
the Core Rule Set busy for a third of a second.
