// Package alerts sends alerts on bans, on traffic over an anomaly
// threshold, on a source that fails and on a file with an error to each
// destination set: to the webhook
// SWWAF_ALERT_WEBHOOK_URL names, each as one JSON object, as the "Alert
// webhook schema" section of SPEC.md describes, to the Slack incoming
// webhook SWWAF_ALERT_SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL names, as a message, and to the
// ntfy topic SWWAF_ALERT_NTFY_URL names. A repeat within
// SWWAF_ALERT_COOLDOWN is held back, and so is an alert past
// SWWAF_ALERT_MAX_PER_HOUR, for the hour's summary. The others wait in a
// bounded queue of each destination's own, so that a destination that is
// slow or unreachable holds up neither the others nor any request. The
// state is written to alerts.json and read from it by the state package.
// Nothing logged names a destination's URL, whose path or query can carry
// a secret.
