Configuration for the HTTP protocol handler.

This configuration is passed to Cowboy when starting listeners
using `cowboy:start_http/4` or `cowboy:start_https/4` functions.

It can be updated without restarting listeners using the
Ranch functions `ranch:get_protocol_options/1` and
`ranch:set_protocol_options/2`.
