Caddy

This release patches more security, security-adjacent, and normal bugs. The FrankenPHP project has collaborated on PHP-adjacent patches, which we are grateful for. The recent surge of patches is mostly attributed to token predictors. We have had to reject more than 75% of "security" reports because they were AI slop spam (or just lazy/incorrect). Please use LLMs and agents wisely to avoid wasting precious maintainer resources. We have started blocking offending accounts that spam slop reports. Thank you to all who submit responsible reports following our security policy to make the project better. We appreciate that the community deems the Caddy project worthy of contribution to improve the broader ecosystem! Security-related patches: - caddyhttp: Normalize Windows backslashes in path matcher (thanks @Vincent550102) - rewrite: Prevent placeholder re-expansion in injected query (thanks @WhiskerEnt) - templates: Improved stripHTML action to more reliably remove malformed HTML (thanks to @jmrcsnchz) - caddyhttp: Ignore header fields with underscores to prevent collisions (thanks @Vincent550102 for the report and @dunglas for the patch) There are also several other various fixes and enhancements by many other contributors. Thank you everyone who participated!
