It's mostly a filler word. I've read through each use of it in the code
base and did minor rephrasings when "simply" carried some meaning. The
overwhelming majority of cases, removing it improved the text
significantly. Inspired by #20793.
Closes#20822
Instead of the first internal call to `curlx_verify_windows_version()`.
To avoid the chance of a race, potentially resulting in initializing
this address twice. AFAICT it could not cause an issue before this
patch.

Backtrack on previous change that aimed to solve the wrong `share.h`
being included. It turns out it did not fix this issue. At the same time
it introduced relative header filenames and the need to include the same
headers differently depending on the source files' location, reducing
readability and editability.
Replace this method by re-adding curl's lib source directory to the
header path and addressing headers by the their full, relative name to
that base directory. Aligning with this method already used in src and
tests.
With these advantages:
- makes includes easier to read, recognize, grep, sort, write, and copy
between sources,
- syncs the way these headers are included across curl components,
- avoids the ambiguity between system `schannel.h`, `rustls.h` vs.
local headers using the same names in `lib/vtls`,
- silences clang-tidy `readability-duplicate-include` checker, which
detects the above issue,
Ref: https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/readability/duplicate-include.html
- possibly silences TIOBE coding standard warnings:
`6.10.2.a: Don't use relative paths in #include statements.`
- long shot: it works well with concatenated test sources, for
clang-tidy-friendly custom unity builds. Ref: #20667
Slight downside: it's not enforced.
If there happens to be a collision between a local `lib/*.h` header and
a system one, the solution is to rename (possibly with its `.c`
counterpart) into the `curl_` namespace. This is also the method used by
curl in the past.
Also:
- curlx/inet_pton: reduce scope of an include.
- toolx/tool_time: apply this to an include, and update VS project
files accordingly. Also dropping unnecessary lib/curlx header path.
- clang-tidy: enable `readability-duplicate-include`.

Instead of globally disabling unity for all targets when clang-tidy is
enabled.
After this patch `CMAKE_UNITY_BUILD=ON` is honored for:
- static libcurl when building both static and shared separately.
- libcurlu and libcurltool internal libraries when building the test
target.
While keeping unity disabled for the libcurl build pass running
clang-tidy, and the curl tool, also running clang-tidy.
To make clang-tidy-enabled builds finish faster when unity mode is
enabled, yet performs the same clang-tidy checks as before this patch.
Effect on:
- GHA/macos: core build: same, buils tests 5-12 seconds faster,
with steps going down from 259 to 25.

time barely below 10m, still one of the slowest jobs overall.

- make sure that errors for specific options in config files identify
the file, line number and shows the error about the correct option
- improve some error message wording
- add warning for leading single quote of arguments in config files
(verified in test 1712)
- adjust test error outputs accordingly
test1712 introduces mode=warn
Use the mode="warn" attribute if the output curl warning output, as it
then makes the check without newlines and the prefix to better handle
that the lines may wrap at different points depending on the lengths of
the lines and terminal width.
Fixes#20598Closes#20666
Fix bigger and smaller kinks in how clang-tidy is configured and used.
Sync behavior more between autotools and cmake, lib/src and tests. Bump
clang-tidy minimum version and prepare logic to allow using clang-tidy
to a fuller extent.
- move clang-tidy settings from builds to a new `.clang-tidy.yml`.
To make it easy to see and edit checks at one place. Also to allow
using the `--checks=` option internally to silence tests-specific
checks. (clang-tidy does not support multiple `--check=` options via
the command-line.)
Use explicit `--config-file=` option to point to the configuration.
- .clang-tidy.yml: link to documentation.
- suppress `clang-diagnostic-nullability-extension` due to a false
positive in libtests with `CURL_WERROR=ON` and `PICKY_COMPILER=OFF`.
- .clang-tidy.yml: enable `portability-*`, `misc-const-correctness`.
- drop `--quiet` clang-tidy option by default to make its working a bit
more transparent. The extra output is minimial.
- consistently use double-dashes in clang-tidy command-line options.
Supported by clang-tidy 9.0.0+ (2019-09-19). Before this patch single
and double were used arbitrarily.
- src/tool_parsecfg: silence false positive `clang-analyzer-unix.Stream`.
Seen with clang 18 + clang-tidy 19 and 20 (only with autotools.)
- INTERNALS: require clang-tidy 14.0.0+. For the `--config-file` option.
- INTERNALS: recommend clang-tidy 19.1.0+, to avoid bogus
`clang-analyzer-valist.Uninitialized` warnings. (bug details below)
autotools:
- allow configuring the clang-tidy tool via `CLANG_TIDY` env.
Also to use in GHA to point to a suffixed clang-tody tool.
- fix to pass CFLAGS to lib, src sources.
(keep omitting them when using a non-clang compiler.)
- fix to pass `--warnings-as-errors=*` in quotes to avoid globbing.
cmake:
- fix to not pass an empty `-I` to clang-tidy.
- fix to pass CFLAGS (picky warnings) to clang-tidy for test sources.
(keep omitting them when using a non-clang compiler.)
- fix to disable `clang-diagnostic-unused-function` for test sources.
(tests have static entry points, which trigger this check when
checking them as individidual sources.)
- fix forwarding `CURL_CLANG_TIDYFLAGS` to clang-tidy.
- force disable picky warnings when running clang-tidy with a non-clang
compiler. To not pass these flags when checking lib and src.
CI:
- GHA/linux: avoid clang-tidy bug by upgrading to v19, and drop the
workaround.
- GHA/linux: switch to clang from gcc in the clang-tidy job. Using gcc
doesn't allow passing CFLAGS to clang-tidy, making it less effective.
(My guess this was one factor contributing to this job often missing
to find certain issues compared to GHA/macos.)
I recomment using clang-tidy with a clang compiler, preferably the same
version or one that's compatible. Other cases are best effort, and may
fail if a C flag is passed to clang-tidy that it does not understand.
Picky warnings are mostly omitted when using a non-clang compiler,
reducing its usefulness.
Details and reproducer for the v18 (and earlier) clang-tidy bug,
previously affecting the GHA/linux job:
clang-tidy <=18 emits false warnings way when passing multiple C sources
at once (as done with autotools):
```sh
cat > src1.c <<EOF
#include <string.h>
static void dummy(void *p) { memcmp(p, p, 0); }
EOF
cat > src2.c <<EOF
#include <stdarg.h>
void vafunc(int option, ...)
{
va_list param;
va_start(param, option);
if(option)
(void)va_arg(param, int);
va_end(param);
}

- fix internal macro `AN_APPLE_OS` reused between sources without
resetting it. It may potentially have left the system sha256
function unused.
- fix to define `WOLFSSL_OPTIONS_IGNORE_SYS` so that it always applies
to wolfSSL headers, also during feature detection.
- md4, md5, sha256: simplify fallback logic.
- delete 20+ unused macros.
- scope or move macros to avoid `-Wunused-macros` warnings.
- examples: delete unused code.
The warning detects macros defined but not used within the same C
source. It does not warn for macros defined in headers. It also works
with unity builds, but to a lesser extent.
Closes#20593
- move macro to `curl_setup.h` (from curlx), and rename.
It's required by src, test servers, libtests. Also used by unit/tunit,
(which is fixable but this patch doesn't touch it.)
- special-case it for Windows/Cygwin/MS-DOS.
- build: drop `setmode()`/`_setmode()` detection.
This also avoids detecting the different `setmode()` on BSDs,
and a lot of complexity and overhead.
- use `CURL_O_BINARY`.
