Nginx [nginx-announce] njs-0.8.6

Hello,

I'm glad to announce a new release of NGINX JavaScript module (njs).

This release introduced the QuickJS engine support in nginx modules.
Read more here: https://nginx.org/en/docs/njs/engine.html

Notable new features:
- QuickJS in nginx:
: nginx.conf:
: location /engine {
: js_engine qjs;
: js_content main.entry;
: }
:
: main.js:
: function entry(r) {
: let m = new Map();
: m.set(1, "QJS");
: r.return(200, "Hello from " + m.get(1));
: }
