What Does This Do
When setting the same data in the context of the request, the same data will be ignored for further analysis using AppSec WAF.
Motivation
Issue reported by customer: #3484
Additional Notes
Different instrumentations (Play and Akka) populate same data to distinct spans, but all of them consolidates in same AppSecRequestContext, which cause forbidden data replacement. As a workaround we ignores replacement if the values are the same.
