Description

Allow users to:
- set throttling thresholds globally and per-each-ip
- allow users to subscribe to the AWS managed rule sets:
- [core](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/aws-managed-rule-groups-baseline.html#aws-managed-rule-groups-baseline-crs)
- [known bad inputs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/aws-managed-rule-groups-baseline.html#aws-managed-rule-groups-baseline-known-bad-inputs)
- [IP reputation list](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/aws-managed-rule-groups-ip-rep.html#aws-managed-rule-groups-ip-rep-amazon)
- [anonymous IP list](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/aws-managed-rule-groups-ip-rep.html#aws-managed-rule-groups-ip-rep-anonymous)
- [bot control](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/aws-managed-rule-groups-bot.html)
- I think this is only really useful if there are dynamic/non-static plugins (also maybe useful in hard-limits, but maybe not)

Research direction

Start by reviewing the AWS WAF managed rule-set links in this issue and the project's plugin model, especially the note about dynamic or non-static plugins. Clarify the scope for global and per-IP throttling and each requested managed rule set before implementation. Done means the agreed WAF plugin behavior and supported rule sets are clearly defined.
