tidy-up: rename Curl_safefree()/tool_safefree() to curlx_safefree()
To sync names for the same macro logic between lib and src, and to move
it to the curlx namespace, to match `curlx_free()` that it's calling.

Closes #21151

lib: make resolving HTTPS DNS records reliable:
- allow to specify when they are wanted on starting a resolve
- match dns cache entries accordingly. An entry which never
  tried to get HTTPS-RRs is no answer for a resolve that wants
  it.
- fix late arrivals of resolve answers to match the "async"
  records that started them - if it still exists.
- provide for multiple "async" resolves in a transfer at the
  same time. We may need to resolve an IP interface while the
  main connection resolve has not finished yet.
- allow lookup of HTTPS-RR information as soon as it is
  available, even if A/AAAA queries are still ongoing.

For this, the "async" infrastructure is changed:

- Defined bits for DNS queries `CURL_DNSQ_A`, `CURL_DNSQ_AAAA`
  and `CURL_DNSQ_HTTPS`. These replace `ip_version` which says
  nothing about HTTPS.
  Use them in dns cache entries for matching.
- enhance the `async->id` to be a unique `uint32_t` for
  resolves inside one multi. This is weak, as the id may
  wrap around. However it is combined with the `mid` of
  the easy handle, making collisions highly unlikely.
  `data->state.async` is only accessed in few places where
  the mid/async-id match is performed.
- vtls: for ECH supporting TLS backends (openssl, rustls, wolfssl),
  retrieve the HTTPS-RR information from the dns connection filter.
  Delay the connect if the HTTPS-RR is needed, but has not
  been resolved yet.

The implementation of all this is complete for the threaded
resolver. c-ares resolver and DoH do not take advantage of
all new async features yet. To be done in separate PRs.

Details:

c-ares: cleanup settings and initialisation. Any ares channel
is only being created on starting a resolve and propagating
operations in setopt.c to the channel are not helpful.

Changed threaded+ares pollset handling so that they do not
overwrite each others `ASYNC_NAME` timeouts.

Add trace name 'threads' for tracing thread queue and
pool used by threaded resolver.

cf-dns: connection filter for DNS queries
New connection filter `cf-dns` that manages DNS queries. If hands
out addresses and HTTPS-RR records to anyone interested. Used by
HTTPS and IP happy eyeballing.

Information may become available *before* the libcurl "dns entry"
is complete, e.g. all queries have been answered. The cf-ip-happy
filter uses this information to start connection attempts as soon
as the first address is available.

The multi MSTATE_RESOLVING was removed. A new connection always
goes to MSTATE_CONNECTING. The connectdata bit `dns_resolved`
indicates when DNS information is complete. This is used for
error reporting and starting the progress meter.

Removed dns entries `data->state.dns[i]`, as the `cf-dns` filter
now keeps the reference now.

Many minor tweaks for making this work and pass address information
around safely.

gcc: guard #pragma diagnostic in core code for <4.6, disable picky warnings
Extend `#pragma diagnostic push`/`pop` guards to the whole codebase
(from tests and examples only) to disable it for GCC <4.6. Rename guard
to `CURL_HAVE_DIAG` and make it include llvm/clang to be interchangeable
with `__GNUC__ || __clang__` in this context.

The above means no longer disabling certain warnings locally, so pair
this with disabling all picky warnings for GCC <4.6.

Also:
- drop global workarounds for misbehaving GCC <4.6 compiler warnings.
  Not needed with picky warnings disabled.

ftp: reject PWD responses containing control characters
A malicious or compromised FTP server could include control characters
(e.g. bare \r, or bytes 0x01-0x1f/0x7f) inside the quoted directory path
of its 257 PWD response. That string is stored verbatim as
ftpc->entrypath and later sent unescaped in a CWD command on connection
reuse via Curl_pp_sendf(), which performs no sanitization before
appending \r\n.

Reject the entire path if any control character is encountered during
extraction so that tainted data never reaches a subsequent FTP command.

Add test case 3217 and 3218 to verify. Adjusted test 1152 accordingly.

build: fully omit verbose strings and code when disabled
When the compiler supports C99.

- map logging functions to macro stubs when verbose logging is disabled
  and the compiler is C99. Make sure these stubs silence unused variable
  warnings for non-variadic arguments.
  Before this patch they mapped to function stubs, the same codepath
  used for C89 compiler in this configuration.

- introduce new macros to tell the compiler which code to include
  when verbose code is active, or inactive:

  - `CURLVERBOSE`: defined when verbose code is active.
    To enclose blocks of code only used for verbose logging.

  - `VERBOSE(statement);`:
    compile statement when verbose code is active.
    To mark code lines only used for verbose logging.

  - `NOVERBOSE(statement);`:
    compile statement when verbose code is inactive.
    To suppress warnings for arguments passed to logging functions via
    printf masks, e.g. `NOVERBOSE((void)ipaddress);`, yet keeping
    the warning in verbose builds.

  Note these macros are not the same as `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS`.
  Verbose code is always active in C89 mode (without variadic macro
  support).

- drop existing uses of `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS` where redundant,
  or replace with the above macros. Ending up reducing the number of
  `#ifdef`s, and also the number of lines.

timeout handling: auto-detect effective timeout
When checking a transfer for being expired via `Curl_timeleft_ms()`,
eleminate the `bool connecting` parameter and have the function check
the `mstate` of the transfer instead.

Advantages:
* eleminate the caller needing awareness if the transfer is
  connecting or in a later state
* fix pingpong timeout handling to check the correct timeout
  during "proto_connect" phases
* avoid using "connecting" timeouts during establishing a secondary
  connection (e.g. FTP) since this would use the timestamp from
  the original, primary connect and thus be wrong

windows: bump minimum to Vista (from XP)
After this patch curl requires targeting Vista or newer, and a toolchain
with Vista support.

Supported MSVC compilers (VS2010+) all support Vista:
- VS2012+ target Win8 (or later) by default.
- VS2010 targets Win7 by default.

Supported mingw-w64 versions (v3+) all support Vista:
- mingw-w64 v9+ target Win10 by default.
- mingw-w64 v8 and older target Server 2003 (~XP) by default.
  After this patch it may be necessary to override the default Windows
  target version to Vista (or newer) via:
  autotools: `CPPFLAGS=-D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0600`
  cmake: `-DCURL_TARGET_WINDOWS_VERSION=0x0600`
- mingw-w64 v6+ allow changing the default at toolchain build-time.

Notes:
- For non-MSVC, non-mingw-w64 toolchains, `if_nametoindex` needs to be
  allowlisted in `curl_setup.h`, if they do support it.

lib: include curlx/warnless.h from curl_setup.h
To make it available for all files. Drop includes from individual
sources. This header was already included from most sources and not
specific to any internal subsystem.

Also to ensure that two system symbol redefines on Windows (`read()` and
`write()`) get applied to all sources. Move them to `curl_setup.h`.

build: drop duplicate include curl/curl.h and others
- curl_range: replace `sendf.h` with direct header dependency
  `curl_trc.h`.
- drop `curl/curl.h` includes from internal sourcees in favor of the
  include made from `curl_setup.h`. Replace it with the latter where
  it's the only include.
- include `curl_setup.h` before using macros, where missing.
- drop redundant `stdlib.h`, `string.h` includes, in favor of
  `curl_setup_once.h` including them.
- drop redundant `limits.h` in favor of `curl_setup.h` including it.
- fake_addrinfo.h: fix typo in comment.
- curl_setup_once.h: drop `stdio.h` in favor of earlier include in
  `curl_setup.h`.
- drop stray, unused, `stddef.h` includes.
- memdebug.h: add missing `stddef.h` include. (relying on accidental
  includes via other headers before this patch.)
- stddef.h: document why it's included.
- strerr: drop `curl/mprintf.h` in favor of `curl/curl.h` including it
  via `curl_setup.h`.
