Improve .htaccess compatibility (Apache directives support/behavior parity) in OpenLiteSpeed #474

@eveneme

Description

@eveneme

OpenLiteSpeed does not fully support or correctly interpret several common Apache .htaccess directives. This causes configuration differences and breaks existing Apache-based setups.

Please improve compatibility with:

  • mod_rewrite (RewriteRule, RewriteCond, common flags like L, R=301, QSA, NC)
  • Redirect / RedirectMatch
  • mod_headers (Header set/append/unset)
  • Require / access control rules (Apache 2.4 syntax)
  • Expires / caching directives

Goal: achieve behavior closer to Apache or clearly document limitations and differences.

Better .htaccess compatibility would make migration from Apache significantly easier.
