Url rewrite patterns in settings.json - equivalent of apache's mod_rewrite

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Mongoose web server has an option named "url_rewrite_patterns". We should allow 
for adding url rewrite patterns to settings.json. Instructions should be 
provided with examples on how to make work existing Apache patterns with 
Mongoose. For example:

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
    </IfModule>

What would be the equivalent in Mongoose?

Some frameworks do not make it easy to disaable pretty urls and url rewriting. 
So we should definitely support it.
