Hi -

I am relatively new to using haproxy, and I am trying to figure out if it
is possible to use a consistent hashing algorithm to hash a cookie value in
to a separate header. This seems very similar to how you would use a
consistent `hash-type` (
http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.8/configuration.html#4-hash-type)
for load balancing, but I don't see how you could put the output of that
hashing in to a header for backend servers to see.

My use case is that I have a 'uuid' cookie which I want to use to assign
users to a pool 0-100 to use in A/B (/C/D... etc) tests. Today we do this
in a nodejs app, but we are adding new backends and we want to avoid
implementing the same hashing in multiple languages.

I'm currently using haproxy 1.8. I appreciate any suggestions!

- Mike
