URL re-write is a type of request adaptation.

The operational sequence of HTTP request processing is roughly:
 * parse + header interpretation
 * network traffic security/policy checks (http_access etc)
 * request adaptation (ICAP, eCAP, URL-rewrite/redirect)
 * security policy checks on adapted content (adapted_http_access etc)
 * source type selection (Store-ID rewrite, cache/store_hit directive)
 * client connection QoS setup
 * source-type specific file/worker/server setup
 * fetching the response

I'm not sure if we have it documented anywhere outside the code.
