Rate limiting (#1385)
* Initial rate limiting

* Move rate limiting to client API

* Update rate limits to hopefully be self-cleaning

* Use X-Forwarded-For, add comments

* Reduce rate limit threshold

* Tweak interval

* Configurable backoff

* Review comments, set cleanup interval to 30 seconds

* Allow generate-config to produce sane CI config

* Fix Complement dockerfile
