When the inbound proxy receives requests, these requests may have
relative `:authority` values like _web:8080_. Because these requests can
come from hosts with a variety of DNS configurations, the inbound proxy
can't make a sufficient guess about the fully qualified name (e.g.
_web.ns.svc.cluster.local._).
In order for the inbound proxy to discover inbound service profiles, we
need to establish some means for the inbound proxy to determine the
"canonical" name of the service for each request.
This change introduces a new `l5d-dst-canonical` header that is set by
the outbound proxy and used by the remote inbound proxy to determine
which profile should be used.
The outbound proxy determines the canonical destination by performing
DNS resolution as requests are routed and uses this name for profile and
address discovery. This change removes the proxy's hardcoded Kubernetes
dependency.
The `LINKERD2_PROXY_DESTINATION_GET_SUFFIXES` and
`LINKERD2_PROXY_DESTINATION_PROFILE_SUFFIXES` environment variables
control which domains may be discovered via the destination service.
Finally, HTTP settings detection has been moved into a dedicated routing
layer at the "bottom" of the stack. This is done do that
canonicalization and discovery need not be done redundantly for each set
of HTTP settings. Now, HTTP settings, only configure the HTTP client
stack within an endpoint.
Fixeslinkerd/linkerd2#1798
When the destination service returns a hint that an endpoint is another
proxy, eligible HTTP1 requests are translated into HTTP2 and sent over
an HTTP2 connection. The original protocol details are encoded in a
header, `l5d-orig-proto`. When a proxy receives an inbound HTTP2
request with this header, the request is translated back into its HTTP/1
representation before being passed to the internal service.

Specifically proxied bodies would make use of an optimization in hyper
that resulted in the connection not knowing (but it did know! just
didn't tell itself...) that the body was finished, and so the connection
was closed. 0.12.7 includes the fix in hyper.
As part of this upgrade, the keep-alive tests have been adjusted to send
a small body, since the empty body was not triggering this case.
