A change made over the network answers with a one-time confirm_token
and closes its connection (HTTP/2: a GOAWAY). The web UI and hc send the
token straight back to /confirm, which accepts it only for the newest
change, from the same user and API token, the same address, and over a
new connection: proof that the client can still reach the API through
the new ruleset (an established connection would get through anyway). A
change that cuts its client off can't be confirmed so, and rolls back by
itself. The setting manual_confirm (hc settings set --auto-confirm off)
and hc --no-confirm leave confirming to a person. Changes through the
local socket still need no confirmation. e2e: 136 checks, among them a
lockout change rolled back without anyone confirming.
