This adds a new nbdkit_shutdown() API whereby plugins and filters can
request that the server shuts down (asynchronously) during the serving
phase.
Two new filters are added, one of which depends on this feature and
the other not needing it but being somewhat related.

New subject: [PATCH nbdkit 1/4] tests: Rename test-shutdown.sh to test-delay-shutdown.sh.
This is testing the delay filter, and we want to use the name
‘test-shutdown’ in a later commit to test the new nbdkit_shutdown()
API, so let’s rename it.

New subject: [PATCH nbdkit 2/4] server: Add nbdkit_shutdown() call.
Plugins and filters may call this to initiate an asynchronous shutdown
of the server. This would only be used in the connected phase —
plugins should still call exit(3) directly for configuration failure.
It is equivalent to sending a kill signal to self, but it's cleaner to
have an API for this and better for potential future non-POSIX platforms.

+=head2 Requesting asynchronous shutdown
+
+Plugins and filters can call L<exit(3)> in the configuration phase
+(before and including C<.get_ready>, but not in connected callbacks).
+
+Once nbdkit has started serving connections, plugins and filters
+should not call L<exit(3)>. However they may instruct nbdkit to shut

+This function requests an asynchronous shutdown and returns (I<note>

+the plugin and all filters are unloaded cleanly which may take some
+time. Further callbacks from nbdkit into the plugin or filter may

This looks fishy. POSIX says that:
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/stdint.h.html#t...
"The argument in any instance of these macros shall be an unsuffixed
integer constant with a value that does not exceed the limits for the
corresponding type.
...For example, if uint_least64_t is a name for the type unsigned long
long, then UINT64_C(0x123) might expand to the integer constant 0x123ULL."
In fact, in glibc's /usr/include/stdint.h, we have:
# if __WORDSIZE == 64
# define INT64_C(c) c ## L
# else
# define INT64_C(c) c ## LL
# endif
Your code works by sheer luck (expanding to the three tokens '1024',
'*', '1024L'), which in turn results in an expression with 64-bit type,
but in general, INT64_C should ONLY be used on a single literal value,
not an arbitrary expression.
But you really don't need to use INT64_C; we can just rely on C's
automatic type promotion to turn our 'int' expression 1024*1024 into the
proper int64_t return value.
Otherwise, this is a nice addition!

+=head1 NAME
+
+nbdkit-exitlast-filter - exit on last client connection
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ nbdkit --filter=exitlast PLUGIN
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+C<nbdkit-exitlast-filter> is an nbdkit filter that causes nbdkit to
+exit when there are no more client connections. Note that it doesn't
+exit before the first client connection.
+
+One use for this is in combination with a superserver, to save
+resources when nbdkit is not in use (see L<nbdkit-service(1)>).
+Another use is to ensure nbdkit exits after the client has finished
+(but see also nbdkit-captive(1) for other ways to do this).
+
+=head1 PARAMETERS
+
+There are no parameters specific to nbdkit-exitlast-filter. Any
+parameters are passed through to and processed by the underlying
+plugin in the normal way.
+
+=head1 FILES

+=head1 NAME
+
+nbdkit-exitlast-filter - exit on last client connection
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ nbdkit --filter=exitlast PLUGIN
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+C<nbdkit-exitlast-filter> is an nbdkit filter that causes nbdkit to
+exit when there are no more client connections. Note that it doesn't
+exit before the first client connection.
+
+One use for this is in combination with a superserver, to save
+resources when nbdkit is not in use (see L<nbdkit-service(1)>).
+Another use is to ensure nbdkit exits after the client has finished
+(but see also nbdkit-captive(1) for other ways to do this).
...as a counterpart to this one.

I suppose there's a minor race where we can close one connection just as
another tries to connect, where we may actually start servicing the new
connection, but the request for shutdown will eventually end that new
connection fairly rapidly. Still, this is a nice way to implement
one-shot servers.

And it's pretty slick that you added it via a filter rather than a new
command line option.

+=head1 NAME
+
+nbdkit-limit-filter - limit number of clients that can connect
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ nbdkit --filter=limit PLUGIN [limit=N]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+C<nbdkit-limit-filter> is an nbdkit filter that limits the number of
+clients which can connect concurrently. If more than C<limit=N>
+(default: 1) clients try to connect at the same time then later
+clients are rejected.
+
+=head1 PARAMETERS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<limit=>N
+
+Limit the number of concurrent clients to C<N>. This parameter is
+optional. If not specified then the limit defaults to 1. You can
+also set this to 0 to make the number of clients unlimited (ie.
+disable the filter).
+
+=back
+
+=head1 FILES

+
+The filter.
+
+Use C<nbdkit --dump-config> to find the location of C<$filterdir>.
