To avoid misleading: frameworks that do not implement basic HTTP functions should be removed #9916

Description

@lesismal

Thanks to TechEmpower for providing the community with so many language/framework performance test results, which bring great reference value to everyone.

Some frameworks are just 4th-layer frameworks(for TCP/UDP/UnixSocket...), which implement simple HTTP "\r\n" judgment to perform a request parsing, and then write back the HTTP response buffer. They do not have the basic conditions for being a production environment HTTP service, but they participated in this test and got a high/top performance results.

Many users in the community do not really read the test code of these frameworks, so they do not know the truth, which causes a lot of miscommunication, making users mistakenly believe that some frameworks or even languages ​​can achieve unrealistic performance.

As a performance testing project with great influence, it should be fair and just, so I suggest removing these frameworks with incomplete functions.

If you want to test the 4th-layer performance of these not full-feature HTTP frameworks, you should open a separate test item/combination instead of comparing the 4th-layer framework(with fake HTTP implementation) with the HTTP framework.
