MINOR: lua: Add lists of frontends and backends
Adis Nezirovic reports:
While playing with Lua API I've noticed that core.proxies attribute
doesn't return all the proxies, more precisely the ones with same names
(e.g. for frontend and backend with the same name it would only return
the latter one).
So, this patch fixes this problem without breaking the actual behaviour.
We have two case of proxies with frontend/backend capabilities:
The first case is the listen. This case is not a problem because the
proxy object process these two entities as only one and it is the
expected behavior. With these case the "proxies" list works fine.
The second case is the frontend and backend with the same name. i think
that this case is possible for compatibility with 'listen' declaration.
These two proxes with same name and different capabilities must not
processed with the same object (different statitics, differents orders).
In fact, one the the two object crush the other one whoch is no longer
accessible.
To fix this problem, this patch adds two lists which are "frontends" and
"backends", each of these list contains specialized proxy, but warning
the "listen" proxy are declare in each list.
