Description
Improvement:
If TV headend can call "http_server_init" before it changes process uid / gid.
Then it can to bind to port numbers < 1024 as a regular user.
Like webservers Apache, nginx etc.
In particular, To run web GUI to run on port 80. But not as 'root'.
Preferred when there is not any other service running on the host.
