Research direction

Start by reading the referenced nginx-otel/src/http_module.cpp implementation around line 312, then inspect ngx-rust's request and redirection bindings. Determine how the requested r->internal exposure should represent an internal redirect such as / -> /index.html, and verify that behavior with an appropriate test.
