MODULATORS OF TOLL-LIKE RECEPTORS FOR THE TREATMENT OF HIV CROSS REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application Nos. 62/382,550, filed September 1, 201 6 , and 62/21 8,858, filed September 15 , 201 5 , each of which is incorporated herein in its entirety for all purposes. FIELD This application relates generally to compounds and pharmaceutical compositions which selectively modulate toll-like receptors (such as TLR8) and methods of using such compounds in the treatment of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (H IV) infections. BACKGROUND The innate immune system provides the body with a first line defense against invading pathogens. In an innate immune response, an invading pathogen is recognized by a germline-encoded receptor, the activation of which initiates a signaling cascade that, among other functions, leads to the induction of cytokine expression and stimulation of multiple immune cell subsets. Innate immune system receptors have broad specificity, recognizing molecular structures that are highly conserved among different pathogens. One family of these receptors is known as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) , due to their homology with receptors that were first identified and named in Drosophila, and are present in cells such as macrophages, dendritic cells, and epithelial cells. The toll-like receptor (TLR) family plays a fundamental role in pathogen recognition and activation of innate immunity. Toll-like receptor 8 (TLR8) is predominantly expressed by myeloid immune cells and activation of this receptor stimulates a broad immunological response. Agonists of TLR8 activate myeloid dendritic cells, monocytes, natural killer (NK) cells, leading to the production of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, such as interleukin- 18 (IL-1 8) , interleukin- 12 (IL- 12), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a), and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ ) . Such agonists also promote the increased expression of co-stimulatory molecules on CD8+ cells, major histocompatibility complex molecules (MAIT, NK cells), and chemokine receptors. Collectively, activation of these innate and adaptive immune responses induces an immune response and regulation of these processes may provide a therapeutic benefit in various conditions involving autoimmunity, inflammation, allergy, asthma, graft rejection, graft versus host disease (GvHD) , infection, cancer, and immunodeficiency Around the world more than thirty million people are infected by the HIV virus. Numerous drugs and combination therapies have been developed for the treatment of HIV infections in humans. While combination antiretroviral therapies (cART) and highly active antiretroviral therapies (HAART) have been able to reduce HIV viral activation, often below 50 copies of HIV RNA/ml of plasma, no therapy has provided elimination of HIV infected cells which are not actively replicating HIV, commonly referred to as a patient's latent reservoir of HIV. "Kick and kill" strategies have been proposed for reservoir reduction and/or elim ination. Compounds with "kick" activity have the potential to reverse latency and increase HIV protein expression in infected cells, making them more susceptible to immune-mediated killing. Compounds with "kill" activity have the potential to enhance killing of HIV-infected cells, e.g. by enhancing immune effector cell function.

There remains a need for new agents and therapies capable of assisting in the activation of the latent HIV-infected cells to enhance the activity of antiretroviral therapies and immune responses.
