These are almost identical to those used by smtp, the main difference
being that we don't include the Received header by default for
http injection, whereas we do for smtp in order to be compliant
with the relevant rfcs. No such rfcs exist for the injection
protocol, so we can pick a default that makes more sense for the
majority of our target audience.
There's big explanation about this in the included docs change.
The TL;DR is: we can now optionally queue the request and generate it
asynchronously wrt. the incoming injection request.
There's also a throttle that can be used to constrain this, because
the asynchronous submission disconnects the injection request from
any kind of back pressure that we'd otherwise have to indicate to
the injector that there might be load related issues.
