Improvements to (W)CGI server #116

Open misalcedo opened 8 months ago

misalcedo commented 8 months ago

The CGI protocol is a great way to map HTTP requests to system processes (environment variables, stdin, stdout, stderr and arguments). Using the same protocol we can map HTTP requests to WASI invocations.

### Tasks
- [ ] Recommendations for servers and example scripts
- [ ] Security considerations
- [ ] Add support for content encodings and prevent the script from changing headers necessary for communicating correctly with the client
- [ ] Add support for HTTPS scheme and expose the scheme to the script
- [ ] Non-Parsed Header script support
- [ ] Validate and improve URI encoding support and query param parsing
- [ ] Allow running CGI scripts from anywhere in the document root directory.
- [ ] Handle the PATH and PWD variables correctly for WCGI
- [ ] Handle non-UTF-8 header values
