.sp
This VMOD implements basic variable support in VCL.
.sp
It supports strings, integers, real numbers, durations, IP addresses
and backends. There are methods to get and set each data type.
.sp
Global variables have a lifespan that extends across requests and
VCLs, for as long as the vmod is loaded. Global variables only support
strings.
.sp
The remaining functions have PRIV_TASK lifespan and are local to a single
request or backend request.
