Hello,

I'm glad to announce a new release of NGINX JavaScript module (njs).

This release focuses on extending the modules functionality.

Notable new features:
- js_body_filter directive. The directive allows changing the
     response body.
: nginx.conf:
:   js_import foo.js;
:
:   location / {
:       js_body_filter foo.to_lower;
:       proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8081/;
:   }
:
: foo.js:
:   function to_lower(r, data, flags) {
:     r.sendBuffer(data.toLowerCase(), flags);
:   }
:
:   export default {to_lower};
- njs.on('exit') callback. The "exit" hook allows to implement
some cleanup logic before the VM instance is destroyed.
: foo.js:
:   function handler(r) {
:     njs.on('exit', () => {
:         r.warn("DONE");
:     });
:   }
