From autoconf manual, section 5.6.1 Portability of Headers, says:
"""
The C99 standard says that inttypes.h includes stdint.h, so there's no
need to include stdint.h separately in a standard environment. Some
implementations have inttypes.h but not stdint.h (e.g., Solaris 7),
but we don't know of any implementation that has stdint.h but not
inttypes.h.

Currently, we use same number of HTTP/2 sessions per worker with given
backend addresses. New option to specify the number of HTTP/2 session
per worker will follow.
It turns out that writing successfully to network is not enough.
After apparently successful network write, read fails and then we
first know network has been lost (at least my android mobile network).
In this change, we say connection check is successful only when
successful read. We already send PING in this case, so we just wait
PING ACK with short timeout. If timeout has expired, drop connection.
Since waiting for PING ACK could degrade performance for fast reliably
connected network, we decided to disable connection check by default.
Use --backend-http2-connection-check to enable it.
When same SSL_CTX is used by multiple thread simultaneously we have to
setup some number of mutex locks for it. We could not check how this
locking affects scalability since we have 4 cores at best in our
development machine. Good side of sharing SSL_CTX across threads is
we can share session ID pool.
If --tls-ctx-per-worker is enabled, SSL_CTX is created per thread
basis and we can eliminate mutex locks. The downside is session ID is
no longer shared, which means if session ID generated by one thread
cannot be acceptable by another thread. But we have now session
ticket enabled and its keys are shared by all threads.
This option specifies files contains 48 random bytes to construct
session ticket key data. This option can be used repeatedly to
specify multiple keys, but only the first one is used to encrypt
tickets.
Update is done by main event loop which is stopped after graceful
shutdown is commenced, which means time is no longer update. To avoid
this situation, we just avoid caching and get time for each logging.
For HTTP/1 backend, -b option can be used several times to specify
multiple backend address. HTTP/2 backend does not support multiple
addresses and only uses first address even if multiple addresses are
specified.
This commit limits the number of concurrent HTTP/1 downstream
connections to same host. By defualt, it is limited to 8 connections.
--backend-connections-per-frontend option was replaced with
--backend-http1-connections-per-host, which changes the maximum number
of connections per host. This limitation only kicks in when h2 proxy
is used (-s option).
This commit adds functionality to customize access logging format in
nghttpx. The format variables are inspired by nginx. The default
format is combined format.
This option limits the number of backend connections per frontend.
This is meaningful for the combination of HTTP/2 and SPDY frontend and
HTTP/1 backend.
nghttpx supports hot deploy feature using signals. The host deploy in
nghttpx is multi step process. First send USR2 signal to nghttpx
process. It will do fork and execute new executable, using same
command-line arguments and environment variables. At this point, both
current and new processes can accept requests. To gracefully shutdown
current process, send QUIT signal to current nghttpx process. When
all existing frontend connections are done, the current process will
exit. At this point, only new nghttpx process exists and serves
incoming requests.
--no-location-rewrite option disallows location header rewrite on
--http2-bridge, --client and default mode. This option is useful when
connecting nghttpx proxy with --http2-bridge to backend nghttpx with
http2-proxy mode.
