sneak 7f8a59de04 Format Go with gofmt, then golines -m 77 (closes #215)
check / check (push) Waiting to run
script/fmt now runs golines -m 77 after gofmt, repeating golines until
it changes nothing, since one pass can leave a line the next splits.
script/fmt-check fails when either would change a file.
script/bootstrap installs golines v0.13.0 with go install, pinned to
its commit, and checks the installed version with go version -m.

The tree is reformatted. The longer lines this makes are fixed by
hand: nolint directives moved onto their own line above the statement,
one string split, and 20 functions over funlen's 80 lines shortened or
split, RunWAF and limitPercentages among them.

clawbot b93bad5842 Answer-time tests check the answer, not wall-clock milliseconds (closes #316)
check / check (push) Waiting to run
Tests only. `TestWAFAnswersWithinTheTimeLimitWhileEveryOutsideSourceHangs` and `TestHangingRoutewatchNeverDelaysAndFailsTheQuery` run in a `synctest` bubble, whose clock load cannot move, instead of comparing wall-clock durations with fixed bounds. The first checks the answer comes after exactly `SWW_LOOKUP_TIMEOUT`, and that the DNS blocklist's query, held by a stand-in resolver, had not failed when it came. The second requires `no_answer_yet` after exactly zero time. The other wall-clock checks in the tests were already in bubbles or are bounds load cannot break.

- The held DNS query still times out on the real clock after two seconds; a stall that long between question and check fails the test.

clawbot 83525b5e73 Caches of outside APIs live in /var/cache/sww (closes #314)
check / check (push) Waiting to run
Every cache of answers from an outside service has its own file in `SWW_CACHE_DIR` (default `/var/cache/sww`): `lookups.json` (GeoJS), `lists.json` (lists fetched by URL, CrowdSec's decisions included), `dnsbl.json`, `abuseipdb-scores.json` and `routewatch.json` (at most 100,000 answers, each kept an hour). `reputation.json` is gone; the AbuseIPDB checks spent today stay in `SWW_STATE_DIR` as `abuseipdb-checks-spent.json`, since losing them would spend the daily budget twice.

A cache file never stops the start: one that does not parse is set aside as `<name>.bad` with a `file_error` alert. An unwritable `SWW_CACHE_DIR` stops the start. The `run` script creates the cache directory and gives it to `sww`. The cache directory needs no volume and can be left out of backups.

clawbot f077dd7fd0 Say that rproxy passes a refused question's 400 to the visitor (closes #326)
check / check (push) Waiting to run
The comment above `readQuestion` in `internal/waf/waf.go` said `rproxy` treats a refused question (`400`, no disposition) as no answer. It passes the `400` to the visitor, and `SWRP_DEFAULT_DISPOSITION` does not apply, as `SPEC.md` and `internal/rproxy/waf.go` say. Comment only.

clawbot 937d956d3a waf: the header limits are the first check (closes #311)
check / check (push) Waiting to run
The header limits (more than 50 cookies or 100 header fields, answered `431`) move from just before the Core Rule Set to the first check after `SWW_ALLOW_NETS`. A request over them causes no lookup, no query to RouteWatch, a DNS blocklist or AbuseIPDB, no rule file match and no Core Rule Set. Requests within the limits go through the same checks in the same order.

For a request over the limits: the rate limits no longer count it; a banned client or one in `SWW_DENY_NETS` gets `431` instead of its refusal; it makes no ban, makes no ban permanent and is not counted in a ban's notes; in `observe` mode it is answered `allow` with no lookup. `SPEC.md` and `README.md` say so.

clawbot f7e3190654 Rename discriminator to waf everywhere (closes #312)
check / check (push) Waiting to run
The command is now `sww waf`, and the package is `internal/waf`. Types,
functions, files, tests, comments, docs, the Dockerfile, the runit
script, `script/`, compose examples, the log field `waf_line` and the
`X-From-Waf` test header follow. No behaviour changes, and no setting
changes name: rproxy already finds the waf through `SWRP_WAF_BACKEND`.

Done with one `sed -i` (Discriminator and DISCRIMINATOR to WAF,
discriminator to waf) over the files `git grep -i discriminator`
listed, as sneak allowed for this rename, then `git mv` for the
package and files. By hand afterwards: the header's spelling, which
the linter requires, and the padding after `waf` in `sww`'s usage
text.

clawbot 719691d1e8 Name log fields, metrics and the Core Rule Set package for what they are (closes #192)
check / check (push) Failing after 3m22s
The first half of the naming audit: names now say what they are. `internal/waf` is `internal/coreruleset`. Log fields, the action `blocked_by_core_rule_set`, the metric and the alert event say Core Rule Set. Timings end `_ms`. Percentages say of what, as `rate_limit_percent` and `bytes_limit_percent`. Setting names follow in #234.

Judgement call: `blocked_by_core_rule_set`, not the audit's `core_rule_set_blocked`, to match `blocked_by_block_rule`.
Trips a reader: an existing state file holding `waf_blocked` or the anomaly scope `watch` stops the start and must be removed. `SWW_ALERT_EVENTS` listing `waf_block` must list `core_rule_set_match`.

clawbot 344ce13c96 rproxy and servewaf replace the one-process smallwebwaf (closes #172, closes #165)
check / check (push) Failing after 14m44s
`smallwebwaf` with no command now prints the commands and exits with status 2.
The image runs rproxy, or servewaf with SMALLWEBWAF_COMMAND=servewaf. The
passing-on code, its settings and its log fields and metric go. internal/proxy
keeps the checks, answers, reports and own endpoints; its tests run through the
real rproxy. The documents describe the pair.

Judgement call: clients.json keeps token_refused, since state files refuse unknown fields.
Deviation: script/gitea-requests sets SWWAF_LOG_REQUEST_HEADERS, to label requests.
Partially verified: make example-app and make gitea-requests never built the image, as Ubuntu's snapshot service answered 5xx.

SPEC.md is the only place that says how smallwebwaf behaves and why; docs/ holds lists linking to it; the README is short and links to both. Passed independent review in round 8.

clawbot 6fcbda6ece 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 no larger than it, with text/json and the application and text
types ending in +json or +xml. 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, as does a multipart body the limit
cuts in a part's headers before a colon or a line feed. 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.

clawbot 80f4c2cc61 The Core Rule Set, run by Coraza, on each request's method, URL and headers (closes #25)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s
Coraza v3.8.1 runs the Core Rule Set 4.25.0 (coraza-coreruleset v4.25.0)
after the rule files, with the six changes and the default
SWWAF_WAF_DISABLED_RULES that SPEC.md gives; no body, no response. The
parameter names in the third and fourth changes are matched in any case,
as Coraza does. SWWAF_WAF_DISABLED_RULES refuses 900000 to 900999,
smallwebwaf's own rules. A request with more than 1000 query parameters
adds 5 (rule 900300). In block mode a match is refused with 403, an
offence counted toward the error burst; in detect mode it is let
through. Both log waf_rule_ids, waf_score and duration_waf, raise
waf_block, and count smallwebwaf_waf_matches_total.

Judgement call: waf_block is raised in block mode too.
Deviation: no engine-error path; with no body read, Coraza cannot fail.
