Changes with nginx 1.7.7                                         28 Oct 2014

    *) Change: now nginx takes into account the "Vary" header line in a
       backend response while caching.

    *) Feature: the "proxy_force_ranges", "fastcgi_force_ranges",
       "scgi_force_ranges", and "uwsgi_force_ranges" directives.

    *) Feature: the "proxy_limit_rate", "fastcgi_limit_rate",
       "scgi_limit_rate", and "uwsgi_limit_rate" directives.

    *) Feature: the "Vary" parameter of the "proxy_ignore_headers",
       "fastcgi_ignore_headers", "scgi_ignore_headers", and
       "uwsgi_ignore_headers" directives.

    *) Bugfix: the last part of a response received from a backend with
       unbufferred proxy might not be sent to a client if "gzip" or "gunzip"
       directives were used.

    *) Bugfix: in the "proxy_cache_revalidate" directive.
       Thanks to Piotr Sikora.

    *) Bugfix: in error handling.
       Thanks to Yichun Zhang and Daniil Bondarev.

    *) Bugfix: in the "proxy_next_upstream_tries" and
       "proxy_next_upstream_timeout" directives.
       Thanks to Feng Gu.

    *) Bugfix: nginx/Windows could not be built with MinGW-w64 gcc.
       Thanks to Kouhei Sutou.
