Description

This is currently an HTTP-based proxy. It could easily be made to forward raw bytestreams over TLS/TCP, but handling HTTP is needed in order to inject measurement data into the request or reponse headers. If we made the header-injection optional we could make this protocol-agnostic.

@0x416e746f6e proposed that there are cases where this would be desirable.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the Rust proxy server and client code, then trace HTTP header injection and TLS/TCP forwarding. Done should be defined as protocol-agnostic raw bytestream forwarding while making measurement-header injection optional.
