While BREACH requires the following three factors to be effectively exploitable we should add another mitigation:
1. Application must support HTTP compression
2. Response most reflect user-controlled input
3. Response should contain sensitive data
Especially part 2 is with ownCloud not really given since user-input is usually only echoed if a CSRF token has been passed.
To reduce the risk even further it is however sensible to encrypt the CSRF token with a shared secret. Since this will change on every request an attack such as BREACH is not feasible anymore against the CSRF token at least.
This changeset removes the static class `OC_Request` and moves the functions either into `IRequest` which is accessible via `\OC::$server::->getRequest()` or into a separated `TrustedDomainHelper` class for some helper methods which should not be publicly exposed.
This changes only internal methods and nothing on the public API. Some public functions in `util.php` have been deprecated though in favour of the new non-static functions.
Unfortunately some part of this code uses things like `__DIR__` and thus is not completely unit-testable. Where tests where possible they ahve been added though.
Fixes https://github.com/owncloud/core/issues/13976 which was requested in https://github.com/owncloud/core/pull/13973#issuecomment-73492969
When `mod_unique_id` is enabled the ID generated by it will be used for logging. This allows for correlation of the Apache logs and the ownCloud logs.
Testplan:
- [ ] When `mod_unique_id` is enabled the request ID equals the one generated by `mod_unique_id`.
- [ ] When `mod_unique_id` is not available the request ID is a 20 character long random string
- [ ] The generated Id is stable over the lifespan of one request
Changeset looks a little bit larger since I had to adjust every unit test using the HTTP\Request class for proper DI.

remove methodannotationreader namespace
fix namespace for server container
fix tests
fail if with cors credentials header is set to true, implement a reusable preflighted cors method in the controller baseclass, make corsmiddleware private and register it for every request
remove uneeded local in cors middleware registratio
dont uppercase cors to easily use it from routes
fix indention
comment fixes
explicitely set allow credentials header to false
dont depend on better controllers PR, fix that stuff later
split cors methods to be in a seperate controller for exposing apis
remove protected definitions from apicontroller since controller has it
