Should I send patch here? - xslt_enable "only enable xslt transform for certain user agent"

Hello!

Just a note: it's probably better idea to post patches to
nginx-devel at .  Cc'd.

While I tend to think this is good feature (though not sure), I 
also think that it probably needs some better name.  Something 
more self-explaining.

Also it's probably better to make xslt controllable via variable 
instead.  This will handle you "disable via special header" case 
as well.

Please use unified diff patches, and not reversed ones.

Comment is pointless and wrongly placed.  Just remove it.

1. Please follow nginx style.

2. Please move this to other config parsing functions.

Unrelated (and wrong) whitespace change here.

Please move config parsing function to other config parsing 
functions.

No tabs, please.

1. No C++ comments, please.

2. You should either return error here (something like return "is 
duplicate") or append to list as gzip_disable do.  Blindly 
ignoring configuration directive isn't what nginx generally do.

Any reason to use value here?  Looks like cut-n-paste leftover 
from gzip_disable.
