Problem

You're triaging a batch of raw Nginx access logs and want two rollups out of them: how many times each HTTP status code appears, and every distinct resource path that was hit, listed in the order the paths first show up. A path's query string is not part of its identity, so `/api/users?page=1` and `/api/users?page=2` both count as `/api/users`. Ignore any line that isn't a well-formed log entry.

Summary

A pile of raw access logs, and two numbers that matter hiding inside the quotes.
