proftpd 1.3.5e can leave inconsistent error message if ftp or mod_sftp is used
Oct 2 15:45:31 ftp01 proftpd[5516]: 10.10.2.13 (10.10.2.189[10.10.2.189]) - SECURITY VIOLATION: Root login attempted
Oct 2 15:45:44 ftp01 proftpd[5517]: 10.10.2.13 (10.10.2.189[10.10.2.189]) - SECURITY VIOLATION: Root login attempted.
Fix regex to make trailing period optional, otherwise brute force attacks against root account using ftp are not blocked correctly.
I have lighttpd 1.4.45 (Debian 9) and auth error log is different.
Now printing mod_auth and not http_auth.
I think that the change was in Lighttp 1.4.42
allow to use dual parameter lists (coming through substitutions), e. g.: `name[p1=0, p2="..."][p3='...']`;
simplified explanation: `][` treats as `,` in new version.
cherry-picked from 0.10.
Added non-greedy fallback for quoted something (with lookahead simulated possessive greedy catch of non-quoted parts `[^"]*(?=")`).
Note that because host-info's are hereafter (with foreign input in-between), we would not use greedy or non-greedy catch-alls (`.*` or `.*?`) here (preventing performance losses).
When reporting the error `AUTH command used when not advertised`, Exim
starts with `SMTP protocol error in "........."`. Here, Exim logs the
SMTP command as it was provided by the connecting client.

According to RFC 5321 (SMTP) "[..] a command verb [..] MAY be encoded
in upper case, lower case, or any mixture of upper and lower case with
no impact on its meaning."
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321#section-2.4
Lower case `auth login` brute-force attempts were seen in the wild and
were not caught by the current failregex.
This commit makes the failregex case-insensitive for the `AUTH`
command, so that lower case (`auth`) or mixed case (`aUtH`) now also
match. The failregex was already case-insensitive for the command
arguments (e.g. `AUTH login` already matched).
add descriptions to stop syslog errors for extra_started_commands when running:
