Thanks for this! I'm still having three small details:
- actually this is a converter so we should adjust the description
in the commit message.
- this should rather be named "fe_exists" since the verb is in the
present tense (but that's a tiny detail we can adjust while merging).
- I'm wondering if we shouldn't have the equivalent for a backend,
especially with the introduction of dynamic backends. And then maybe
it could turn to "proxy_type" which would return "frontend", "backend",
nothing in case of not found, maybe something else. Note that it might
not end up being a good idea (might be harder to use for listen vs
frontend for example), just mentioning for completeness.
Thanks!
Willy
