Malicious clients and proxies can provide potentially malicious strings
in the polls. This validates the NAT type and proxy type strings to
ensure that malformed strings are not displayed on a web page
or passed to any of our monitoring infrastructure.
If a client or proxy supplies an invalid NAT type, we return an error
message. If a proxy supplies an unknown proxy type, we set the proxy
type to unknown.
So the assignment of proxies is based on the load. The number of clients
is ronded down to 8. Existing proxies that doesn't report the number
of clients will be distributed equaly to new proxies until they get 8
clients, that is okish as the existing proxies do have a maximum
capacity of 10.
Fixes#40048
Send the client poll request and response in a json-encoded format in
the HTTP request body rather than sending the data in HTTP headers. This
will pave the way for using domain-fronting alternatives for the
Snowflake rendezvous.
