James M Snell 3a4454151a http: add websocketMask() and websocketUnmask()
Add websocketMask(source, mask, output[, offset[, length]]) and
websocketUnmask(buffer, mask), which XOR data with a repeating 4-byte
key. This is the masking that WebSocket clients apply to every frame
they send (RFC 6455, Section 5.3), and that servers undo on every frame
they receive.

Userland WebSocket implementations do this either with a byte-by-byte
JS loop (undici, and ws without optional dependencies) or with the
bufferutil native addon. bufferutil is installed for only about 3% of
ws downloads and has no linux-arm64 prebuild, so almost all users run
the JS loop. The signature matches bufferutil, so existing users can
switch with a feature check, as ws did for buffer.isUtf8().

The implementation uses a V8 fast API call and processes 8-byte words,
which the compiler vectorizes. It handles overlapping source and output
views, and treats every view type as raw bytes. It is about 20x faster
than the JS loop at 1 KiB and 40x faster at 64 KiB, and faster than
bufferutil at every size from 32 bytes up.

James M Snell 44ba289f55 http: add isValidHeaderName() and isValidHeaderValue()
Add non-throwing counterparts of http.validateHeaderName() and
http.validateHeaderValue() that return a boolean instead of throwing.

Rejecting an invalid header with the existing validators costs a few
microseconds, because an error object and its stack trace are created,
compared to ~20ns for the boolean check. Userland HTTP implementations
such as undici (fetch Headers, request options) therefore keep private
copies of the token and field-value tables from _http_common. These new
functions let them reuse the core implementation.

isValidHeaderValue() accepts an optional `httpValidation` option
('strict' or 'relaxed') that has the same meaning as the option of the
same name on http.createServer() and http.request().

The use-case is for any framework that provides user mw a response
replacement, that collects the desired response state, and applies them
only on conclusion. As such a framework, I'd want to validate the
header names and values as soon as the user-code provides them.
This - to eliminate errors on response-send time, and provide developer
stack trace that contains the line that submits the offending values.

Roy Sommer 5774688e26 lib: support overriding http\s.globalAgent
Overriding `require('http[s]').globalAgent` is now respected by
consequent requests.

In order to achieve that, the following changes were made:

1. Implmentation in `http`: `module.exports.globalAgent` is now defined
through `Object.defineProperty`. Its getter and setter return \ set
`require('_http_agent').globalAgent`.

2. Implementation in `https`: the https `globalAgent` is not the same
as `_http_agent`, and is defined in `https` module itself. Therefore,
the fix here was to simply use `module.exports.globalAgent` to support
mutation.

3. According tests were added for both `http` and `https`, where in
both we create a server, set the default agent to a newly created
instance and make a request to that server. We then assert that the
given instance was actually used by inspecting its sockets property.

Unexport the http.parsers freelist.  It was originally exported by Ryan

been documented.  It's unclear if there are any users.

The lifecycle of parser objects changed recently and it seems better to
not let people shoot themselves in the foot so easily.

If it turns out there are actually users, we can always re-export it
again - probably under a slightly different name, to force people to
update their code to the new way of things.

For the `request()` and `get()` functions. I could never
really understand why these two functions go through agent
first... Especially since the user could be passing `agent: false`
or a different Agent instance completely, in which `globalAgent`
will be completely bypassed.

Moved the relevant logic from `Agent#request()` into the
`ClientRequest` constructor.

Incidentally, this commit fixes #7012 (which was the original
intent of this commit).

Ben Noordhuis 7124387b34 http: don't escape request path, reject bad chars
Commit 38149bb changes http.get() and http.request() to escape unsafe
characters. However, that creates an incompatibility with v0.10 that
is difficult to work around: if you escape the path manually, then in
v0.11 it gets escaped twice. Change lib/http.js so it no longer tries
to fix up bad request paths, simply reject them with an exception.

The actual check is rather basic right now. The full check for illegal
characters is difficult to implement efficiently because it requires a
few characters of lookahead. That's why it currently only checks for
spaces because those are guaranteed to create an invalid request.

Fixes #5474.
