Support for proxy route-based forwarding

[pbryant-phew]

It would be great if the observatory API would support resource/RESTful routes. This isn't because we want to test API endpoints so much as because proxies commonly do route-based forwarding. Hence host="example.com" might resolve to a different "real" web server than host="example.com/app". Currently, as far as I am aware, there is no way to test this second example, and yet they are two different web servers with completely different HTTP configuration.

Apologies if I have missed some functionality, or some other feature request - I searched high and low for both before raising here.

You can use the scanner in local mode to scan arbitrary URLs of any depth; the CLI mode doesn’t require any server components, and I believe is documented in the README.
