SendMeBack acts as a simple HTTP echo server. A client sends a parameterised HTTP request to the server, specifying
what it wants to see in the response.
The tool is designed to allow simple testing of intermediate network components such as firewalls and proxies.
In a browser, or using curl, visit the /sendmeback/ route with an arbitary URL. Sendmeback will respond with an HTTP
response with the response code equal to the first number it finds on the URL.
Sendmeback will take all parameters passed to the URL and use them as HTTP headers in the response.
