Define PoolManager num_pools size as `max(max_threads, 500)` and reduce
each pool size from 100 to 30. The aim is to limit the total number of
open connections.
Fix remote SOCKS connection typo.
Now that we reuse remote connections, its better NOT to remove the
`keep-alive` request header. We need to send it to the remote host to make it
keep the connection open if possible.
Use urllib3 connection pooling to improve remote server connection
speed. Our aim is to reuse socket connections to the same target hosts when
possible.
Initialize a `urllib3.PoolManager` in `SingleThreadedWarcProxy` and use
it in `MitmProxyHandler` to connect to remote servers.
Socket read / write and ssl / socks code is exactly the same, only the
connection management changes.
Use arbitratry settings: pool_size=2000 and maxsize=100 (number of
connections per host) for now. Maybe we can come up with better values in the
future.
`certauth` has a method to create a cert for `*.example.com`. This
reduces greatly the number of generated certificates (~50% in my
tests).
For example, previous code would create:
```
images-eu.ssl-images-amazon.com.pem
images-fe.ssl-images-amazon.com.pem
images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com.pem
```
Wildcard code would create:
```
ssl-images-amazon.com.pem
```
We use the default list of SSL ciphers of python `ssl` module when we connect
to remote hosts. That list is probably outdated.
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.6/Lib/ssl.py#L192
We noticed problems when connection to various targets. E.g.
```

Research indicated that the cipher selection is not proper.
I use `urllib3` cipher selection for better compatibility.
https://github.com/shazow/urllib3/blob/master/urllib3/util/ssl_.py#L71
The `urllib3` list is bigger and includes TLS13 which from my experience
is the latest state of the art.
`ssl` module ciphers:
```
'ECDH+AESGCM:DH+AESGCM:ECDH+AES256:DH+AES256:ECDH+AES128:DH+AES:ECDH+HIGH:DH+HIGH:ECDH+3DES:DH+3DES:RSA+AESGCM:RSA+AES:RSA+HIGH:RSA+3DES:ECDH+RC4:DH+RC4:RSA+RC4:!aNULL:!eNULL:!MD5'
```
`urllib3` module ciphers:
```
'TLS13-AES-256-GCM-SHA384:TLS13-CHACHA20-POLY1305-SHA256:TLS13-AES-128-GCM-SHA256:ECDH+AESGCM:ECDH+CHACHA20:DH+AESGCM:DH+CHACHA20:ECDH+AES256:DH+AES256:ECDH+AES128:DH+AES:RSA+AESGCM:RSA+AES:!aNULL:!eNULL:!MD5'
```
Add ``ProxyingRecordingHTTPResponse.truncated`` and
``RecordedUrl.truncated`` attributes.
Set ``truncated = b'length'` when max resource size limit applies.
Add `Warc-Truncated: length` header to WARC record.
Add hidden option ``--max-resource-size`` which indicates the max file size of
a target resource in bytes. If the size is over the limit, an exception is
raised.
When the option is not set, use existing single threader writer
architecture.
If available, load ``WarcWriterMultiThread`` with pool size equal to
``--writer-threads``.
Add socket-timeout=4 in ``warcprox_`` test fixture.
Create test URL `/slow-url` which returns after 6 sec.
Trying to access the target URL raises a ``socket.timeout`` and returns
HTTP status 502.
The new ``--socket-timeout`` option does not hurt any other test using
the ``warcprox_`` fixture because they are too fast anyway.
