If you have a lot of RAM, using only default percentages could
potentially leave some RAM unused. These lua functions
allow more precise control over the limits.
This was always present, it just wasn't something we provided a syntax
to specify.
max_burst allows you to control how quickly your throttle budget will
be consumed over the throttle time period.
The default max_burst is equal to the limit you specify, allowing
the full budget to be instantaneously consumed.

This controls what we do in an smtp session when we experience a
disconnect during message sending; do we give up on the session,
continue with the connection plan, or try to connect to the same
host again and continue sending any additional messages there?
The purpose of this record is to log additional context about why
a message might end up in the scheduled queue when it hasn't
logged a TransientFailure.
There are a few situations around handling throttles and limits
where we might put a message back into the scheduled queue, without also
logging a TransientFailure record. It's possible that we should
reconsider some of those, but for the moment, there is an observability
hole that needs to be filled.
What this commit does is introduce an `InsertContext` which can hold one
or more `InsertReason`s about why a message is being inserted into the
scheduled queue.
There are 3 primary reasons for insertion:
* Received - the message was just received/injected
* Enumerated - the message was discovered in spool enumeration
* DueTimeWasReached - the message is now due for delivery and is being
popped off the scheduled queue
The additional reasons can be added to the context to provide more
color about what happened.
When a message is added to the scheduled queue, the accumulation
in the InsertContext is examined, and if the context doesn't
indicate that the message was Enumerated and it wasn't also
already logged as a TransientFailure, a `Delay` record is
logged.
The `Delay` record includes in its `response.content` the ordered set of
InsertReasons as well as the delay duration and due time.
Logging Delay records might place undesirable pressure on the
logging storage, so you may wish to disable it via:
```lua
kumo.configure_local_logs {
per_record = {
Delay = {
-- Suppress Delay records
enable = false
}
}
}
```
or similar.
The timer object can track latencies in lua code and is helpful for
ad-hoc, explicit "profiling" in your policy script: the latencies are
exported via a prometheus histogram.
This is helpful in situations where you need to do things that
are not strictly supported but might just happen to squeak by
if support is claimed for them.
* add send_batch method to kafka mod
* add error messages to returned value and don't log it as error
* add kafka send_batch doc

This adds connection limit/throttle states to the readyq rows
in `kcli queue-summary`, alongside where we would show the
suspension state.
This makes it easier to understand when a given egress path
might be hitting connection limits.
When used together with an Opportunistic TLS mode, if the handshake
or subsequent EHLO fails, we will re-connect to the current host
and disable TLS.
This is implemented as a recursive solution, which I'm not totally
keen on, but the recursion is limited to a single level so it's
not so bad.
This option should be used with caution, and ideally only
for trusted networks.
The purpose is to absorb the latency of post-DATA processing
and hide it from the trust injector.
It defers processing that would normally happen in smtp_server_message_received
and instead will, at some (ideally) near-future time trigger an
smtp_server_message_deferred_inject event instead.
This will marginally increase your average injection latency but should
clamp your worst case injection latency much lower because the outliers
will not happen inline with the injecting client.
I was halfway through adding special purpose options for this,
but I realized that skip_hosts already exists for this function
and is much more flexible.
Add an example to the docs to show how it can be done.
The same technique can be used to skip using IPv4 if that is
desired (despite being impractical with the current state
of SMTP on ipv6), but using `0.0.0.0/0` as an entry in the
skip_hosts list.
