[Proposal] Expose HTTP and Stream proxy modules structures for developers.

Hello,

Sometimes custom module developers need to iterate over configured
location(s), configured in some or all server(s) blocks.
For example, to perform post-initialization steps, defined by custom
directives in their modules.
Now it is virtually impossible.

I've posted question about this matter few years ago:
https://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-devel/2016-October/008882.html

Since then, I received quite a few private emails about whether I succeeded
in my findings.
So, I'm not alone, who faced this issue.

Fortunately, the described goal could be easily achieved by making just
internal proxy modules structures available in a separate header.
After that implementation of desired functionality is just a matter of
writing a few lines of code.

Patches а following.
No functional changes, just code movement from .c to .h files.

Development community, at least through my voice, will be grateful to see
them applied to the latest development branch.

Cheers,
Andrey
