v0.35.1: performance, AGPL licensing and documentation overhaul

- Web Server reads static files inline; proxy middleware chain flattened
- About window with license summary and project links; AGPL-3.0-or-later
- Rewritten documentation: feature list, screenshots, performance guide
- Fix false spikes in per-Vhost request-rate charts

Most settings are managed in the authenticated panel. Save changes after validation; use **Configuration history** to compare or restore an earlier revision. Some listeners are process-owned and require restart to change. Configuration updates are not a replacement for encrypted full backups.
> Cache compatibility: **Settings → Cache → Varnish-compatible cache policy** (`cache.varnish_compatible`) defaults to `true` in 0.34.7, also for configs without the field. Turning it off restores legacy client freshness handling. Implicit grace defaults to **60 seconds** (`cache.varnish_grace_seconds`, editable in Settings → Cache). See [HTTP cache](CACHE.md#varnish-compatible-cache-policy-0347) for semantics and safety exceptions.

Global response headers, per-Vhost rules and Web Service-specific headers are distinct scopes. Security and proxy-protocol headers may be protected from rewriting. Compression supports eligible response encodings; availability is still constrained by global limits and the requesting client.
### Global HTTP block / allow and security headers (0.34.13)
### Global HTTP block / allow and security headers
Under **Settings → Rules & headers**, choose **Global block / allow** to configure rules applying to every public HTTP vhost, redirect and 404 host. Independent controls cover **country block/allow**, global **User-Agent deny patterns**, **IP/CIDR and allow-only DNS ACL**, **HTTP method allow/block**, **request Content-Type denylist** and a **shared per-client-IP rate limit**. Disabled policies are neutral. If country allow mode is selected, an unknown GeoIP country is denied; block mode permits unknown countries. Global IP and country checks are cumulative, as are global rules and more restrictive per-vhost policies. Verify the trusted client-IP and GeoIP configuration before enabling country or rate controls. The global rate limit uses the same bucket for a given client across all public vhosts. It does not affect TCP/UDP streams or the separate administration listener.
The adjacent **Security headers** subtab applies a global response baseline: **HSTS** (HTTPS only), **nosniff**, **X-Frame-Options**, **Referrer-Policy**, **Content-Security-Policy** and **Permissions-Policy**. Explicit per-vhost security-header values take precedence; absence of a vhost value does not cancel a global header. Test HSTS and CSP against all sites before enabling. **Global custom headers** remains a distinct subtab for arbitrary request/response header rules.
In the updated **0.34.13** API, global User-Agent blocking is nested at `config.global_security.user_agent_blocking`; it is no longer a separate root-level setting. Example (only the relevant fragment):

## Cache and transforms
Caching is opt-in. HOT holds bounded memory entries; COLD is an optional disk tier (off by default). Freshness follows eligible HTTP policy and `Vary`; private/no-store responses and protected requests are not shared. Configuration saves can selectively invalidate affected cached responses; 0.34.0 behavior needs production validation. HTTP BAN/PURGE is **disabled by default** and uses an explicit source-IP allowlist. See [Cache](CACHE.md).

Response transformations are optional and apply only to configured eligible MIME types and scopes. See [Response delivery](RESPONSE_DELIVERY.md) for codec defaults, transformation limits and header precedence. Content rewriting can affect validators, compression and cache entries; test actual representations after configuration changes.
