Discovers which options are supported by the AJP (Apache JServ
Protocol) server by sending an OPTIONS request and lists potentially
risky methods.
In this script, "potentially risky" methods are anything except GET,
HEAD, POST, and OPTIONS. If the script reports potentially risky
methods, they may not all be security risks, but you should check to
make sure. This page lists the dangers of some common methods:
