• router: per try timeouts now starts when an upstream stream is ready instead of when the request has been fully decoded by Envoy.
• router: added support for not retrying :ref:`rate limited requests<config_http_filters_router_x-envoy-ratelimited>`. Rate limit filter now sets the :ref:`x-envoy-ratelimited<config_http_filters_router_x-envoy-ratelimited>` header so the rate limited requests that may have been retried earlier will not be retried with this change.

The timeout defaults to 5 minutes; if you have other timeouts (e.g. connection idle timeout, upstream response per-retry) that are longer than this in duration, you may want to consider setting a non-default per-stream idle timeout.

• http: fixed missing support for appending to predefined inline headers, e.g. authorization, in features that interact with request and response headers, e.g. :ref:`request_headers_to_add <envoy_api_field_route.Route.request_headers_to_add>`. For example, a request header authorization: token1 will appear as authorization: token1,token2, after having :ref:`request_headers_to_add <envoy_api_field_route.Route.request_headers_to_add>` with authorization: token2 applied.

• proxy_protocol: added support for HAProxy Proxy Protocol v2 (AF_INET/AF_INET6 only).
• ratelimit: added support for :repo:`api/envoy/service/ratelimit/v2/rls.proto`. Lyft's reference implementation of the ratelimit service also supports the data-plane-api proto as of v1.1.0. Envoy can use either proto to send client requests to a ratelimit server with the use of the use_data_plane_proto boolean flag in the ratelimit configuration. Support for the legacy proto source/common/ratelimit/ratelimit.proto is deprecated and will be removed at the start of the 1.9.0 release cycle.
