This commit introduces a new type-level combinator, `WithRoutingHeader`.
It modifies the behaviour of the following sub-API, such that all endpoint
of said API return an additional routing header in their response.
A routing header is a header that specifies which endpoint the
incoming request was routed to.
Endpoint are designated by their path, in which `Capture'` and
`CaptureAll` combinators are replaced by a capture hint.
This header can be used by downstream middlewares to gather
information about individual endpoints, since in most cases
a routing header uniquely identifies a single endpoint.
Example:
```haskell
type MyApi =
WithRoutingHeader :> "by-id" :> Capture "id" Int :> Get '[JSON] Foo
-- GET /by-id/1234 will return a response with the following header:
-- ("Servant-Routed-Path", "/by-id/<id::Int>")
```
To achieve this, two refactorings were necessary:
* Introduce a type `RouterEnv env` to encapsulate the `env` type
(as in `Router env a`), which contains a tuple-encoded list of url
pieces parsed from the incoming request.
This type makes it possible to pass more information throughout the
routing process, and the computation of the `Delayed env c` associated
with each request.
* Introduce a new kind of router, which only modifies the RouterEnv, and
doesn't affect the routing process otherwise.
`EnvRouter (RouterEnv env -> RouterEnv env) (Router' env a)`
This new router is used when encountering the `WithRoutingHeader`
combinator in an API, to notify the endpoints of the sub-API that they
must produce a routing header (this behaviour is disabled by default).
