unicorn is an HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve
fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take
advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels. Slow clients should
only be served by placing a reverse proxy capable of fully buffering
both the the request and response in between unicorn and slow clients.

Changes:

Rack hijack support improves as the app code can capture and use
the Rack `env' privately without copying it (to avoid clobbering
by another client). Thanks to Sam Saffron for reporting and
testing this new feature:

We also now support $DEBUG being set by the Rack app (instead of
relying on the "-d" CLI switch). Thanks to James P Robinson Jr
for reporting this bug:
https://bogomips.org/unicorn-public/D6324CB4.7BC3E%***@cigna.com/T/
(Coincidentally, this fix will be irrelevant for Ruby 2.5
which requires 'pp' by default)

There's a few minor test cleanups and documentation updates, too.

All commits since v5.3.1 (2017-10-03):

reduce method calls with String#start_with?
require 'pp' if $DEBUG is set by Rack app
avoid reusing env on hijack
tests: cleanup some unused variable warnings
ISSUES: add a note about Debian BTS interopability

Changes:

unicorn 5.4.1

This release quiets some warnings for Ruby 2.6 preview releases
and enables tests to pass under Ruby 1.9.3. Otherwise, nothing
interesting for Ruby 2.0..2.5 users. *YAWN*

Eric Wong (1):
quiet some mismatched indentation warnings

Fumiaki MATSUSHIMA (1):
Use IO#wait instead to fix test for Ruby 1.9
