Fail on nested `if` statements

[fabioknoedt]

Nginx doesn't support nested if statements: http://rosslawley.co.uk/archive/old/2010/01/04/nginx-how-to-multiple-if-statements/

Does it make sense to detect these syntax errors?

I think the detection of syntax errors does not need for gixy. For this purpose I prefer to run nginx -t, benefits:

• checks the availability of the necessary modules;
• zero false positive :-)

Good point. My use case is in a piece of nginx configuration inside of an ingress config snippet though: ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet, it's not the whole config file. I know, edge case 😄

metadata:
  name: my-name
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
    ingress.kubernetes.io/force-ssl-redirect: "true"
    ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-body-size: '0'
    ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet: |
