Should we use a different webserver library? about opendatacon HOT 6 CLOSED

Well a good idea @neilstephens, we should get rid of libmirohttpdlibrary, after your message I also did some research that what library should we go for.

Apart from Simple-Web-Server, we can add 2 more libraries to our list and let's have a discussion and then let's decide what to go for.

1. https://cpp-netlib.org/#
2. https://github.com/boostorg/beast/

Let's choose the one which fits our project well and can do the job for us.
What do you think?

Okay, then I will put this into my schedule as well and replace the libmicrohttpd then and will test the Web Plugin with it.

@cpp-rakesh , check out feature/Simple-Web-Server . I couldn't help myself =)
It seems to work well. It would be good if you can give it a test run and review what I did with your eagle-eye ;-)

I finished off this feature, and rushed out a release with it included.

The reason for the rush is that Travis CI is becoming non-free at the end of this year (today). So we'll only have 1000 build minutes after today; maybe enough for a couple of hotfixes or point releases, and we'll have to migrate to another CI platform in the meantime :-( RIP free Travis.

Thanks @neilstephens , I will try to review the code and do a test run with it and will update the findings with you.
