Make middleware for No.1 C/C++ web framework

[hsluoyz]

Casbin has a tradition to make authz middlewares for web frameworks of that language (see: casbin/casbin-rs#93). We need to make some middlewares for the most popular C/C++ web frameworks (if there any cuz I even didn't have a name). The middlewares will be put into: https://github.com/casbin-cpp

The first question is: what are the most popular C/C++ web frameworks?

@xcaptain @divy9881 @ZipoChan do you have any ideas?

[GopherJ]

I think https://github.com/an-tao/drogon is a good option which wins actix-web framework in bench and becomes the Top1.

See it from here: https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r19&hw=ph&test=composite

It's also under active development

@GopherJ great! Let's make a middleware for drogon first!

@ZipoChan @0625wzw can you do this?

@KaranaLJX You can take up this issue, but before starting writing the code, let us know, what middleware are you going to code up and related to which framework.

For reference you can take the inspiration from following organisation's middleware repos,
https://github.com/casbin
https://github.com/jcasbin
https://github.com/node-casbin
https://github.com/casbin-rs

Apart from drogon, this are some of the well-known web frameworks from which you can start working,
CivetWeb : https://github.com/civetweb/civetweb
CppCMS : http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/main

I would prefer CppCMS, its very famous and easy to work with.

@EmperorYP7 @sheny1xuan plz give some advices

[sheny1xuan]

Hi, I think we can pick one web framework in this list as a start. I don't know which one is best, but I think we can pick a framework with more active community, such as Crow, TreeFrog, Drogon etc.

[EmperorYP7]

Drogon and oat++ are good candidates for us.
