Rule files, and bans for a clear sign of attack (closes #24)
check / check (push) Successful in 3m23s

Every *.rules file in SWWAF_RULES_DIR is read at start and again when
one changes, and each request is checked against the rules after the
rate limits: log notes a match, block refuses with 403, ban refuses and
bans the netblock for SWWAF_ATTACK_BAN_DURATION, made permanent by its
next request or its next clear sign of attack. bans.json gains each
ban's cause, the request log rule_ids and rule_blocked, the metrics
rule matches and rules loaded. The image ships 00-default.rules.

Judgement call: a header sent twice is matched with its values joined
by ", ".
Judgement call: SWWAF_MAX_BAN_DURATION does not cap a ban for an attack.
Not in this unit: offences for rule matches, with the error burst.
