Add throtteling to request

[svenkubiak]

Add an additonal parameter which enables throtteling of request, e.g. max 5 req/sec.

[MarkVink]

Will the max of 5req/sec be applied to each user individually trying to access a certain route, or the route itself?

[svenkubiak]

Per user (IP) accessing a specific route.

[MarkVink]

Thats cool!

In that case also reminds that in most cases the app runs behind a reverse proxy which has to pass IP headers.

[svenkubiak]

Yes, you're right. We should keep that in mind. Are there alternatives?

[MarkVink]

The application has access to (session) cookies for sure, although its not a reliable basis for throttling. So, the application must be sure its provided with an IP address, or its not able to distinguish between users.

Moved to 4.0.0 as this requires some new feature from 4.0.0
