Markus Heiser 66810ce711 [mod] limiter: minor improvements
- requests without HTTP header 'Connection' or missing 'User-Agent' will be
  blocked by the limiter

- re_bot is related to 'User-Agent' and has been renamed to block_user_agent

"""Some bot protection / rate limitation
To monitor rate limits and protect privacy the IP addresses are getting stored
with a hash so the limiter plugin knows who to block. A redis database is
needed to store the hash values.
Enable the plugin in ``settings.yml``:
- ``server.limiter: true``
- ``redis.url: ...`` check the value, see :ref:`settings redis`
