The 'SpaceHelmet' fairing is now called 'Shield'. It features the
following changes and improvements:
* Headers which are now ignored by browsers are removed.
* 'XssFilter' is no longer an on-by-default policy.
* A new 'Permission' policy is introduced.
* 'Shield' is attached to all 'Rocket' instances by default.
* Default headers never allocate on 'Clone'.
* Policy headers are rendered once and cached at start-up.
* Improved use of typed URIs in policy types.
A singleton fairing is guaranteed to be the only instance of its type at
launch time. If more than one instance of a singleton fairing is
attached, only the last instance is retained.
Previously, if a panic occurred with an 'Error' on the stack, 'Error'
would panic as usual during unwinding. This resulted in a double panic.
This commit makes 'Error' detect if a panic is already occurring and
omits its own panic if it is.
This has the following nice benefits:
* The 'JsonValue' wrapper type is gone.
* 'Local{Request, Response}' natively support JSON/MessagePack.
* The 'json' and 'msgpack' limits are officially recognized.
* Soon, Rocket application will not require an explicit 'serde' dep.
This marks the beginning of the end of 'rocket_contrib'.
This commit entirely rewrites Rocket's URI parsing routines and
overhauls the 'uri!' macro resolving all known issues and removing any
potential limitations for compile-time URI creation. This commit:
* Introduces a new 'Reference' URI variant for URI-references.
* Modifies 'Redirect' to accept 'TryFrom<Reference>'.
* Introduces a new 'Asterisk' URI variant for parity.
* Allows creation of any URI type from a string literal via 'uri!'.
* Enables dynamic/static prefixing/suffixing of route URIs in 'uri!'.
* Unifies 'Segments' and 'QuerySegments' into one generic 'Segments'.
* Consolidates URI formatting types/traits into a 'uri::fmt' module.
* Makes APIs more symmetric across URI types.
It also includes the following less-relevant changes:
* Implements 'FromParam' for a single-segment 'PathBuf'.
* Adds 'FileName::is_safe()'.
* No longer reparses upstream request URIs.

Resolves#998.
This includes one breaking change: the default Content-Type of templates
without an identifying extension is now 'Text'. This is to prevent Tera
templates from rendering as HTML without being escaped.
Resolves#1637.
This has the following positive effects:
1) The lifetime retrieved through 'Deref' is now long-lived.
2) An '&State<T>` can be created via an '&T'.
3) '&State<T>' is shorter to type than 'State<'_, T>'.
The crux of the implementation is as follows:
* Configurable ctrl-c, signals that trigger a graceful shutdown.
* Configurable grace period before forced I/O termination.
* Programatic triggering via an application-wide method.
* A future (`Shutdown`) that resolves only when shutdown is requested.
Resolves#180.
This is a breaking change for many consumers of the 'Response' and all
consumers of the 'Body' API. The summary of breaking changes is:
* 'Response::body()', 'Response::body_mut()' are infallible.
* A 'Body' can represent an empty body in more cases.
* 'ResponseBuilder' is now simply 'Builder'.
* Direct body read methods on 'Response' were removed in favor of
chaining through 'body_mut()': 'r.body_mut().to_string()'.
* Notion of a 'chunked_body' was removed as it was inaccurate.
* Maximum chunk size can be set on any body.
* 'Response' no longer implements 'Responder'.
A few bugs were fixed in the process. Specifically, 'Body' will emit an
accurate size even for bodies that are partially read, and the size of
seek-determined bodies is emitted on HEAD request where it wasn't
before. Specifics on transport were clarified, and 'Body' docs greatly
improved as a result.
This removes the export of each of these macros from the root, limiting
their export-scope to their respective module. This is accomplished
using a new internal macro, 'export!', which does some "magic" to work
around rustdoc deficiencies.
One situation where this is noticeable is when initialization failure
leads to `Drop`; unlike in a successful initialization, `postgres`
detects and panics when `Drop` is called from within asynchronous code.
Several other database pools do not panic in this same situation, but
would still block the current thread.
Also sets the minimum version of `tokio` to 1.4 in `rocket_contrib`,
which is the version where `Handle::block_on` (used in `Drop` impls) was
introduced.
Fixes#1610.
Changes codegen to use an instance method on the route proxy struct
rather than implementing a trait on the proxy struct. This helps rustc
identify unused routes.
Resolves#1598.
This commit includes changes that improve how and what Rocket logs
automatically. Rocket now logs:
* All guard errors, indicating the failing guard kind and type.
* A warning when a 'TempFile' is used as a data guard for a request
that specifies a 'form' Content-Type.
* Only the top/sub of a request's format.
This commit makes the following breaking changes:
* '<T as FromData>::Error' must implement 'Debug'.
Furthermore, this commit restores the previous behavior of always
logging launch info. It further restores the unspecified behavior of
modifying logging state only when the set logger is Rocket's logger.
Sentinels resolve a long-standing usability and functional correctness
issue in Rocket: starting an application with guards and/or responders
that depend on state that isn't available. The canonical example is the
'State' guard. Prior to this commit, an application with routes that
queried unmanaged state via 'State' would fail at runtime. With this
commit, the application refuses to launch with a detailed error message.
The 'Sentinel' docs explains it as:
A sentinel, automatically run on ignition, can trigger a launch
abort should an instance fail to meet arbitrary conditions. Every
type that appears in a mounted route's type signature is eligible to
be a sentinel. Of these, those that implement 'Sentinel' have their
'abort()' method invoked automatically, immediately after ignition,
once for each unique type. Sentinels inspect the finalized instance
of 'Rocket' and can trigger a launch abort by returning 'true'.
The following types are now sentinels:
* 'contrib::databases::Connection' (any '#[database]' type)
* 'contrib::templates::Metadata'
* 'contrib::templates::Template'
* 'core::State'
The following are "specialized" sentinels, which allow sentinel
discovery even through type aliases:
* 'Option<T>', 'Debug<T>' if 'T: Sentinel'
* 'Result<T, E>', 'Either<T, E>' if 'T: Sentinel', 'E: Sentinel'
Closes#464.
