> Currently, all responses from the Asterisk HTTP server contain a [Server] header that identifies Asterisk and its version (e.g. "Server:Asterisk/<version>", where <version> is the currently running version of Asterisk). The preferred behavior is to allow the user to configure an alternate name to use for the value returned in the [Server] header for HTTP responses (e.g. "Server:SomeSuperAwesomeServerName").
> 
> This patch to the Asterisk source provides a new configuration property, [servername], in http.conf, that gives users the ability to modify the value that Asterisk uses when identifying itself. 
> 
> This test verifies that the HTTP server correctly reports the expected name through the [Server] header field in all HTTP responses. It uses three instances of Asterisk to test the three possible logic paths:
> 1) No configuration was provided
> 2) A non-empty/non-null value was provided through the new configuration property [servername]
> 3) An empty/null value was provided through the new configuration property [servername]
> 
> For clarity, consider this example for the possible outcomes as described above, respectively:
> 1) There was nothing configured for [servername].
> 2) The user configured a non-empty value for [servername] (e.g. servername="JohnMcClane")
> 3) The user configured an empty/null value for [servername] (e.g. servername="")
