http: add callback to allow server to decline (and thereby close) incoming connections.

This is important, as otherwise clients can easily exhaust the file
descriptors available on a libevent HTTP server, which can cause
problems in other code which does not handle EMFILE well: for example,
see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/11368

Closes: #578 (patch cherry picked)
