test1175: fix to run, and fix documentation issues detected
Fix test 1175 by passing the source root directory (was: tests).

Before this patch this caused silent Perl warnings and returning success
without executing the tests, due to:
```
readline() on closed filehandle $f at ../../tests/test1175.pl line 55.
readline() on closed filehandle $f at ../../tests/test1175.pl line 39.
```

Running the test revealed these issues:
```
CURLE_FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND is not in libcurl-errors.md
CURLE_HTTP_POST_ERROR is not in libcurl-errors.md
CURLE_TELNET_OPTION_SYNTAX is not in libcurl-errors.md
CURLM_CALL_MULTI_SOCKET is not in libcurl-errors.md
```

Apply fixes:
- mark `CURLE_FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND` deprecated by 7.53.0
- mark `CURLE_HTTP_POST_ERROR` deprecated by 7.56.0
- mark `CURLE_TELNET_OPTION_SYNTAX` deprecated by 7.78.0
- document `CURLM_CALL_MULTI_SOCKET` as a synonym for
  `CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM`
- test1477: exclude `CURLM_CALL_MULTI_SOCKET`.

But, these weren't officially deprecated. It may need more updates
to reflect that in other places, or fix the issues differently.

runtests: support memory-limits per test
The idea here is to set limits per test how many allocations and maximum
amount of memory it is allowed to use. This is a means to make sure the
number and total size of allocations are kept in check and don't
mistakenly "blow up".

If runtests.pl detects that the given limits have been exceeded it fails
the test case with an error.

The `<verify>` part now supports `<limits>`, and in this section two
limits can be set for each test (verified in debug builds only):

    Allocations: [number of allocation calls]
    Maximum allocated: [maximum concurrent memory allocated]

Default limits (used if nothing is set in the test file):

    Allocations: 1000
    Maximum allocated: 1000000

tests: move GSS-API dynamic stub into debug-mode libcurl
Replace the `libstubgss.so`-based overload solution with one built into
libcurl at compile-time.

The previous, `LD_PRELOAD`-based, solution was non-portable, allowlisted
for Linux, BSD and Solaris. It also required non-debug builds, which
turned out to be an accidental condition:
7d342c723c. It also required a curl tool
built against a shared libcurl. Detecting this condition wasn't always
accurate, e.g. with certain cmake configurations.

The overload solution also didn't work on macOS, though it theoretically
should have:
- #17653
- #2394

Experiments on making the overload solution work in more envs:
- #17759
  That revealed that it also did not work on NetBSD, in CI.

The replacement solution is overloading the necessary GSS-API functions
for test 2056 and 2057 at compile time. It requires a debug-enabled curl
build (due to its insecure nature).

This makes these tests run on all platforms. Including most GSS jobs in
CI, that are running tests. (the exception is old-linux, non-debug jobs,
where it felt overkill to enable debug for this.)

The refactored GSS stub code needs to overload less than before because
it's free to use the official GSS API. (This didn't work with
the overload solution on Alpine for example). It can also use libcurl
functions, allowing to replace `snprintf()` with `msnprintf()`.

OS/400 is also overloading GSS API functions. I haven't tested how this
works after this PR. In theory it should, because this PR doesn't rely
on preprocessor overrides.

Note that for future GSS tests, it may be necessary to stub these GSS
API functions: `gss_inquire_context()`, `gss_unwrap()`, `gss_wrap()`.
They are on codepaths not (yet) touched by tests.

Also:
- stub-gss: check for token buffer overrun.
- stub-gss: replace size macros with `sizeof()`.
- GHA: enable debug for some jobs with GSS.
- GHA/linux: ignore results for 2056 and 2057 in the valgrind job.
  They leak the same way as seen with 2077 and 2078.

docs: reflect that delimiter-separated capath is only OpenSSL
curl passes down the capath directly to the backends. OpenSSL will then
delimiter-separate this path internally to support multiple directories
(using its certificate hash scheme). However, the other backends
(wolfSSL, mbedTLS, gnutls) only expect a single directory (and do not
use the hash scheme, preferring to iterate the directory and load all
files). This adjusts the `--capath` documentation to reflect that
multiple paths is an OpenSSL-specific feature. Alternatively, curl could
delimiter-separate these itself, but I'm not sure it's worth it.

tests/server: drop memdebug option
I added it just in case when removing enabled-by-default memdebug
from test servers. Apparently it broke after recent changes. It's
probably not a widely used feature and does not seem to be worth fixing.
It creates odd dependencies as the error message indicates:

```

build: sync tests unity builds between cmake and autotools
Instead of relying on CMake's built-in unity feature, use `mk-unity.pl`,
as already done with autotools. It simplified the build, shortens logs
and makes debugging easier because of the fewer build variations.
It also allows testing / fixing with cmake and those automatically apply
to autotools builds too. cmake builds can be much-much faster, esp.
when working the builds themselves.

It also enables "unity" in old cmake versions. Basically every test
target is a single generated .c source.

Also:
- drop a `lib` unity workaround for libtests with autotools after fixing
  the issue in libtests itself. It drops a few exceptions and makes
  libcurl build faster (in autotools unity).
- fix another `lib` autotools unity issue and drop the workaround for it
  from `mk-unity.pl`. `srcdir` was missing from the header path.
- simplify `mk-unity.pl` command-lines, drop exclusions.

66d35ee5d4 lib: avoid reusing unclean connection
When `curl_easy_cleanup()` is invoked while still being part
of a multi handle, the code will auto-remove it. But since the
connection was detached first, the code in
`curl_multi_remove_handle()` that invalidates dirty connections
did not bite.

Attach the connection *after* the possible remove from a multi
handle, so that connection reuse can be prevented.

Add test753 to reproduce and verify the fix. This required adding
the new debug env var CURL_FTP_PWD_STOP, to have a transfer return
from multi_perform() early with a connection that does not show
and pending input.

df1ff17f88 schannel: allow partial chains for manual peer verification
- Align --cacert behaviour with OpenSSL and LibreSSL.

This changes the default behavior of Schannel manual certificate
verification, which is used when the user provides their own CA
certificates for verification, to accept partial chains. In other words,
the user may provide an intermediate certificate without having to
provide the root CA.

Win8/Server2012 widened the PKIX chain traversal API to allow
certificate traversal to terminate at an intermediate.

This behaviour (terminate at the fist matching intermediate) is the
default for LibreSSL and OpenSSL (with OpenSSL allowing control via
CURLSSLOPT_NO_PARTIALCHAIN).

This change uses the new API if it is available, and also allows the
behaviour to revert legacy if CURLSSLOPT_NO_PARTIALCHAIN is present.

tests: always make bundles, adapt build and tests
Make test bundles the default. Drop non-bundle build mode.
Also do all the optimizations and tidy-ups this allows, simpler builds,
less bundle exceptions, streamlined build mechanics.

Also rework the init/deinit macro magic for unit tests. The new method
allows using unique init/deinit function names, and calling them with
arguments. This is in turn makes it possible to reduce the use of global
variables.

Note this drop existing build options `-DCURL_TEST_BUNDLES=` from cmake
and `--enable-test-bundles` / `--disable-test-bundles` from autotools.

Also:
- rename test entry functions to have unique names: `test_<testname>`
  This removes the last exception that was handled in the generator.
- fix `make dist` to not miss test sources with test bundles enabled.
- sync and merge `tests/mk-bundle.pl` into `scripts/mk-unity.pl`.
- mk-unity.pl: add `--embed` option and use it when `CURL_CLANG_TIDY=ON`
  to ensure that `clang-tidy` does not miss external test C sources.
  (because `clang-tidy` ignores code that's #included.)

- tests: reduce symbol scopes, global macros, other fixes and tidy-ups.
- tool1621: fix to run, also fix it to pass.

- Fix reset of fragmented message decoder state when a PING/PONG is
  received in between message fragments.

- Fix undefined behavior (applying zero offset to null pointer) in
  curl_ws_send() when the given buffer is NULL.

- Detect invalid overlong PING/PONG/CLOSE frames.
- Detect invalid fragmented PING/PONG/CLOSE frames.
- Detect invalid sequences of fragmented frames.

  - a) A continuation frame (0x80...) is received without any ongoing
    fragmented message.
  - b) A new fragmented message is started (0x81/0x01/0x82/0x02...)
    before the ongoing fragmented message has terminated.

- Made logs for invalid opcodes easier to understand.
- Moved noisy logs to the `CURL_TRC_WS` log level.
- Unified the prefixes for WebSocket log messages: `[WS] ...`

- Add env var `CURL_WS_FORCE_ZERO_MASK` in debug builds.

  - If set, it forces the bit mask applied to outgoing payloads to
    0x00000000, which effectively means the payload is not masked at
    all. This drastically simplifies defining the expected `<protocol>`
    data in test cases.

- 2700: Frame types
- 2701: Invalid opcode 0x3
- 2702: Invalid opcode 0xB
- 2703: Invalid reserved bit RSV1 _(replaces 2310)_
- 2704: Invalid reserved bit RSV2
- 2705: Invalid reserved bit RSV3
- 2706: Invalid masked server message
- 2707: Peculiar frame sizes _(part. replaces 2311)_
- 2708: Automatic PONG
- 2709: No automatic PONG _(replaces 2312)_
- 2710: Unsolicited PONG
- 2711: Empty PING/PONG/CLOSE
- 2712: Max sized PING/PONG/CLOSE
- 2713: Invalid oversized PING _(replaces 2307)_
- 2714: Invalid oversized PONG
- 2715: Invalid oversized CLOSE
- 2716: Invalid fragmented PING
- 2717: Invalid fragmented PONG
- 2718: Invalid fragmented CLOSE
- 2719: Fragmented messages _(part. replaces 2311)_
- 2720: Fragmented messages with empty fragments
- 2721: Fragmented messages with interleaved pong
- 2722: Invalid fragmented message without initial frame
- 2723: Invalid fragmented message without final frame

- 2305: curl_ws_recv() loop reading three larger frames
  - This test involuntarily sent an invalid sequence of opcodes (0x01...,0x01...,0x81...) , but neither libcurl nor the test caught this! The correct sequence was tested in 2311 (0x01...,0x00...,0x80...). See below for 2311.
  - Validation of the opcode sequence was added to libcurl and is now tested in 2723.
  - Superseded by 2719 (fragmented message) and 2707 (large frames).
- 2307: overlong PING payload
  - The tested PING payload length check was actually missing, but the test didn't catch this since it involuntarily sent an invalid opcode (0x19... instead of 0x89...) so that the expected error occurred, but for the wrong reason.
  - Superseded by 2713.
- 2310: unknown reserved bit set in frame header
  - Superseded by 2703 and extended by 2704 and 2705.
- 2311: curl_ws_recv() read fragmented message
  - Superseded by 2719 (fragmented message) and 2707 (large frames).
- 2312: WebSockets no auto ping
  - Superseded by 2709.

- No tests for `CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION`.
- No tests for sending of invalid frames/fragments.

checksrc: avoid extra runs in CI, enable more check locally, fix fallouts
To avoid redundant work in CI and to avoid a single checksrc issue make
all autotools jobs fail. After this patch checksrc issues make fail
the checksrc job, the `dist / verify-out-of-tree-autotools-debug`,
`dist / maketgz-and-verify-in-tree`  jobs and the fuzzer job (if run).
Of these, the `dist` jobs replicate local builds, also testing the build
logic.

Also add a script to check the complete local repository, optionally
with the build tree to verify generated C files.

Also:
- automatically run checksrc in subdirectories having a `checksrc`
  target. (examples, OS400, tests http/client, unit and tunit)
- tests/libtest: make sure to run `checksrc` on generated `lib1521.c`.
  (requires in-tree autotools build.)
- tests: run `checksrc` on targets also for non-`DEBUGBUILD`
  builds. It ensures to check `lib1521.c` in CI via job
  `dist / maketgz-and-verify-in-tree`.
- src: drop redundant `$(builddir)` in autotools builds.
- scripts: add `checksrc-all.sh` script to check all C sources and
  the build directory as an option.
- use the above from CI, also make it verify all generated sources.
- silence `checksrc` issues in generated C sources.
- checksrc: add `-v` option to enable verbose mode.
- checksrc: make verbose mode show checked filename and fix to only
  return error on failure.
- make sure that generated C files pass `checksrc`.

curlx: move into to curlx/
Move curlx_ functions into its own subdir.

The idea is to use the curlx_ prefix proper on these functions, and use
these same function names both in tool, lib and test suite source code.
Stop the previous special #define setup for curlx_ names.

The printf defines are now done for the library alone. Tests no longer
use the printf defines. The tool code sets its own defines. The printf
functions are not curlx, they are publicly available.

The strcase defines are not curlx_ functions and should not be used by
tool or server code.

dynbuf, warnless, base64, strparse, timeval, timediff are now proper
curlx functions.

When libcurl is built statically, the functions from the library can be
used as-is. The key is then that the functions must work as-is, without
having to be recompiled for use in tool/tests. This avoids symbol
collisions - when libcurl is built statically, we use those functions
directly when building the tool/tests. When libcurl is shared, we
build/link them separately for the tool/tests.

multi: do transfer book keeping using mid
Change multi's book keeping of transfers to no longer use lists, but a
special table and bitsets for unsigned int values.

`multi-xfers` is the `uint_tbl` where `multi_add_handle()` inserts a new
transfer which assigns it a unique identifier `mid`. Use bitsets to keep
track of transfers that are in state "process" or "pending" or
"msgsent".

Use sparse bitsets to replace `conn->easyq` and event handlings tracking
of transfers per socket. Instead of pointers, keep the mids involved.

Provide base data structures and document them in docs/internal:
* `uint_tbl`: a table of transfers with `mid` as lookup key,
   handing out a mid for adds between 0 - capacity.
* `uint_bset`: a bitset keeping unsigned ints from 0 - capacity.
* `uint_spbset`: a sparse bitset for keeping a small number of
  unsigned int values
* `uint_hash`: for associating `mid`s with a pointer.

This makes the `mid` the recommended way to refer to transfers inside
the same multi without risk of running into a UAF.

Modifying table and bitsets is safe while iterating over them. Overall
memory requirements are lower as with the double linked list apprach.

tests/server/dnsd: basic DNS server for test suite
Currently the DNS server only responds to A and AAAA queries. It always
responds with a fixed response: the localhost address. Three times.

It should work fine over either IPv4 or IPv6, but I don't think it
matters much for curl testing.

The idea is to allow curl tests to use "normal" DNS hostnames (using the
normal name resolving code paths) and still use the local test servers.

This setup currently only works if curl is built with c-ares because
redirecting DNS requests to our test server when using getaddrinfo() is
not easy.

This should be extended to respond to HTTPS queries as well to allow
more testing there, as c-ares is always used for that.

Test 2102 is the first test using this.

vquic: ngtcp2 + openssl support
With the new addition of OpenSSL QUIC API support and the support in
ngtcp2 main branch, make the necessary adjustments in curl to support
this combination.

- add support in configure.ac to detect the feature OPENSSL_QUIC_API2 in
  openssl
- initialise ngtcp2 properly in this combination
- add a Curl_vquic_init() for global initialisation that ngtcp2 likes
  for performance reasons
- add documentation on how to build in docs/HTTP3.md
- add CI testing in http3-linux.yml

http2: fix stream window size after unpausing
When pausing a HTTP/2 transfer, the stream's local window size
is reduced to 0 to prevent the server from sending further data
which curl cannot write out to the application.

When unpausing again, the stream's window size was not correctly
increased again. The attempt to trigger a window update was
ignored by nghttp2, the server never received it and the transfer
stalled.

Add a debug feature to allow use of small window sizes which
reproduces this bug in test_02_21.

runtests: generate certs dynamically, bump to EC-256, tidy up
Before this patch the curl repository and source tarball distribution
contained test certificates as binary blobs. Used by runtests.

Drop these certificates in favor of generating them dynamically as
part of the build process. Both via autotools and CMake.

As part of this, improve certificates, the generator script and process,
file layout, and fix any issue to make it work fast and smooth both in
CI and local builds.

Note, cert generator scripts require OpenSSL >=1.0.2
(or LibreSSL >=3.1.0). Generation requires POSIX shell, also with CMake.
Without a POSIX shell tests relying on TLS (and stunnel) will fail.

Details:

- build: generate certs as part of the test run process.
- build, tests: generate certs in the build directory.
- binarycheck: drop concept of known binary files with hashes.
- binarycheck: move binary check logic into spacecheck and drop this
  separate checker tool.
- build: fix to clean all cert files.
- autotools: fix to not run leaf cert generators in parallel. To avoid
  confusion when updating the revocation database and counter.
- scripts: drop `scripts` subdir, merge two scripts into one,
  auto-generate root cert, allow generating multiple leafs at once.
- scripts: switch to EC-256 keys (was: RSA-2048). For key size and perf.
- scripts: drop `-x` echo, text dumps, most other output. To avoid log
  noise and make it quicker in CI.
- scripts: make it non-RSA-specific.
- scripts: delete unused code.
- scripts: use POSIX shell shebang. Some envs don't have bash (Alpine).
- scripts: pass test pseudo-secrets via the command-line. To avoid:
  ```
  + openssl genrsa -out test-ca.key -passout fd:0 2048
  Invalid password argument, starting with "fd:"
  ```
- cmake: fix to launch generator scripts via the detected POSIX shell.
- cmake: fix `build-certs` rule to not depend on `SRPFILES`
  (`srp-verifier-*`).
- cmake: drop `EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL` for the cert subdir. It makes
  the Visual Studio generator miss to create the `clean-certs`,
  `build-certs` targets. No target depend on them, so they don't execute
  implicitly anyway. Fixes:
  ```
  MSBUILD : error MSB1009: Project file does not exist.
  Switch: clean-certs.vcxproj
  ```
- cmake: add `VERBATIM USES_TERMINAL` to `build-certs` target.
- GHA/linux: install openssl on Alpine, for the cert generator scripts.

docs: rework RUSTLS install instructions
Describes using a package manager or pre-built binaries and adopts the
0.15 installation from source instructions.

Previously the rustls docs described installing rustls-ffi from source
using the GNU Makefile. The upstream project has switched to using
cargo-c as a cross-platform solution that works well with the rust
toolchain, pkg-config, and Windows and so this needs an update.

Similarly, for folks that want to avoid the extra cargo-c tool
requirement, rustls-ffi provides binary releases for common platforms,
and some Linux distributions/package managers offer pre-built packages.

The install instructions are expanded to cover these options since
they're generally better for end users than building the dep. from
source (no `rustc` required).

cmake: fix clang-tidy builds to verify tests, fix fallouts

  clang-tidy ignores #included .c sources, and incompatible with unity
  and bundles. It caused clang-tidy ignoring all test sources. It also
  means this is the first time tests sources are checked with
  clang-tidy. (autotools doesn't run it on tests.)

- cmake: update description for `CURL_TEST_BUNDLES` option.

- fix tests using special `CURLE_*` enums that were missing from
  `curl/curl.h`. Add them as reserved codes.

- fix about ~50 other issues detected by clang-tidy: unchecked results,
  NULL derefs, memory leaks, casts to enums, unused assigments,
  uninitialized `errno` uses, unchecked `open`, indent, and more.

- drop unnecessary casts (lib1533, lib3207).

- suppress a few impossible cases with detailed `NOLINT`s.

- lib/escape.c: drop `NOLINT` no longer necessary.

build: do not apply curl debug macros to tests/server by default
It seems unnecessary and possibly unexpected to build test servers with
debug-enabled features and memory tracking whenever the tested curl is
built like that (which is a requirement for some tests, so curl is
mostly built like that when running tests.) It also makes building
servers a little bit faster with cmake for the most common cases.

You can apply debug options to `tests/server` with these new options:
- `./configure`: `--enable-server-debug`.
- cmake: `-DENABLE_SERVER_DEBUG`.

Also sync the way we pass these macros in autotools, with CMake builds.
Before this patch, autotools passed them via `curl_config.h`. After this
patch it passes them on the command-line, like cmake builds do.

This patch also make these option no longer passed to examples and
`http/client` in cmake builds, where they were no-ops anyway.

core: stop redefining E* macros on Windows, map EACCES, related fixes
Before this patch, standard `E*` errno codes were redefined on Windows,
onto matching winsock2 `WSA*` error codes, which have different values.
This broke uses where using the `E*` value in non-socket context, or
other places expecting a POSIX `errno`, e.g. file I/O, threads, IDN or
interfacing with dependencies.

Fix it by introducing a curl-specific `SOCKE*` set of macros that map to
`WSA*` on Windows and standard POSIX codes on other platforms. Then
verify and update the code to use `SOCKE*` or `E*` macro depending on
context.

- Add `SOCKE*` macros that map to either winsock2 or POSIX error codes.
  And use them with `SOCKERRNO` or in contexts requiring
  platform-dependent socket error codes.

  This fixes `E*` uses which were supposed be POSIX values, not `WSA*`
  socket errors, on Windows:
  - lib/curl_multibyte.c
  - lib/curl_threads.c
  - lib/idn.c
  - lib/vtls/gtls.c
  - lib/vtls/rustls.c
  - src/tool_cb_wrt.c
  - src/tool_dirhie.c

- Ban `E*` codes having a `SOCKE*` mapping, via checksrc.
  Authored-by: Daniel Stenberg

- Add exceptions for `E*` codes used in file I/O, or other contexts
  requiring POSIX error codes.

Also:
- ftp: fix missing `SOCKEACCES` mapping for Windows.
- add `SOCKENOMEM` for `Curl_getaddrinfo()` via `asyn-thread.c`.
- tests/server/sockfilt: fix to set `SOCKERRNO` in local `select()`
  override on Windows.
- lib/inet_ntop: fix to return `WSAEINVAL` on Windows, where `ENOSPC` is
  used on other platforms. To simulate Windows' built-in `inet_ntop()`,
  as tested on a Win10 machine.
  Note:
  - WINE returns `STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER` = `0xC000000D`.
  - Microsoft documentation says it returns `WSA_INVALID_PARAMETER`
    (= `ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER`) 87:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/windows/win32/api/ws2tcpip/nf-ws2tcpip-inet_ntop#return-value
- lib/inet_ntop: drop redundant `CURL_SETERRNO(ENOSPC)`.
  `inet_ntop4()` already sets it before returning `NULL`.
- replace stray `WSAEWOULDBLOCK` with `USE_WINSOCK` macro to detect
  winsock2.
- move existing `SOCKE*` mappings from `tests/server` to
  `curl_setup_once.h`.
- add missing `EINTR`, `EINVAL` constants for WinCE.

After this patch, we're back to 8.12.1, but disallowing

Because those may crash. A stable reprducer is with `ENABLE_DEBUG=ON`

You can pass the necessary CMake and MSVC linker options manually,
to get around this condition.

Shared build with static UCRT may be crashing too, depending on
conditions. Consult the documentation about limitations of static CRT:

curl.h: stop defining non-curl __has_declspec_attribute
Public curl headers are best not to define 3rd-party or system macros.
Introduce `CURL_HAS_DECLSPEC_ATTRIBUTE` to cover this system macro and
use it.

INSTALL-CMAKE.md: CMake usage updates
This PR updates the CMake build/install docs in `docs/INSTALL-CMAKE.md`,
in particular focusing on the use of libcurl from CMake using
`find_package` as well as the newly added features/protocols support via
using `COMPONENTS` or `OPTIONAL_COMPONENTS` with `find_package`.
See #15854 for initial discussion and the corresponding PR #15858 that
was merged.

Some additional best-practices notes are added, for example:

* Encouraging building out-of-source
* Using `--config` with `cmake --build` for multi-config CMake
  generators, not `CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE`

We also add a CURL CMake-specific tip on using `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX`
during configure time to set the install prefix, not using `--prefix`
when running `cmake --install` so `curl-config` output is consistent.

cmake: restrict static CRT builds to static curl exe, test in CI
Static CRT crashes MSVCR* MSVC builds (in VS2008, VS2010, VS2012,
VS2013) according to CI and local tests. The reproducible crash happens
in `curl_mfprintf() -> fputc(s, stderr)` when trying to display the
warning message in `curl -V`. `stderr` is non-NULL and resolves to `2`.
This reproducer needs a debug-enabled build, but it's unrelated to debug
features or curl's memory tracker. It happens regardless of unity build,
CPU architecture or `DllMain()` use. Example from VS2013:

```
+ _bld/src/Debug/curl.exe --disable --version
./appveyor.sh: line 124:   203 Segmentation fault      "${curl}" --disable --version
```
Ref: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/curlorg/curl/builds/51570451/job/ojpdqrsm1hmpmq6a#L210

Another crash happened in an UCRT build (VS2017) with a couple of
`printf()`s added to curl's `main()` function:

```
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Debug Assertion Failed!
Program: C:/projects/curl/bld/src/Debug/curl.exe
File: minkernel/crts/ucrt/src/appcrt/heap/debug_heap.cpp
Line: 996
Expression: _act_first_block == header
```
(it hangs the job in CI due to the GUI popup)
Ref: https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/16394#issuecomment-2677181716

To avoid actual and potential issues, this patch issues a warning on
the shared-libcurl + static-CRT combination and falls back to the
default, shared CRT. IOW a static CRT build now requires a static curl
exe when using the `CURL_STATIC_CRT=ON` option.

wolfssl: tls early data support
Enable TLS Early Data for wolfSSL:

- enable for QUIC via ngtcp2
- give Curl_vquic_tls_init() a `struct alpn_spec` like used for the TCP
  case. Adapt gnutls and other users.
- enable pytest test cases for early data with wolfSSL

and while this messes up wolfssl.c anyway, do

- rename all struct/functions with prefix 'wolfssl_' to 'wssl_' to not
  pollute that name prefix
- rename `ctx/handle` to `ssl_ctx/ssl`, as used in openssl case

multi: event based rework
Rework the event based handling of transfers and connections to
be "localized" into a single source file with clearer dependencies.

- add multi_ev.c and multi_ev.h
- add docs/internal/MULTI-EV.md to explain the overall workings
- only do event handling book keeping when the socket callback
  is set
- add handling for "connection only" event tracking, when internal
  easy handles are used that are not really tied to a connection.
  Used in connection pool.
- remove transfer member "last_poll" and connections "shutdown_poll"
  and keep all that internal to multi_ev.c
- add CURL_TRC_M() for tracing of "multi" related things, including
  event handling and connection pool operations. Add new trace
  feature "multi" for trace config.
  multi traces will show exactly what is going on in regard to
  event handling.
- multi: trace transfers "mstate" in every CURL_TRC_M() call
- make internal trace buffer 2048 bytes and end the silliness
  with +n here -m there. Adjust test 1652 expectations of resulting
  length and input edge cases.
- add trace feature "lib-ids" to perfix libcurl traces with transfer
  and connection ids. Useful for debugging libcurl applications.

build: add Windows CE / CeGCC support, with CI jobs
Make it possible to build curl for Windows CE using the CeGCC toolchain.
With both CMake and autotools, including tests and examples, also in CI.
The build configuration is the default one with Schannel enabled. No
3rd-party dependencies have been tested.

Also revive old code to make Schannel build with Windows CE, including
certificate verification.

Builds have been throughougly tested. But, I've made no functional tests
for this PR. Some parts (esp. file operations, like truncate and seek)
are stubbed out and likely broken as a result. Test servers build, but
they do not work on Windows CE. This patch substitutes `fstat()` calls
with `stat()`, which operate on filenames, not file handles. This may or
may not work and/or may not be secure.

About CeGCC: I used the latest available macOS binary build v0.59.1
r1397 from 2009, in native `mingw32ce` build mode. CeGCC is in effect
MinGW + GCC 4.4.0 + old/classic-mingw Windows headers. It targets
Windows CE v3.0 according to its `_WIN32_WCE` value. It means this PR
restores portions of old/classic-mingw support. It makes the Windows CE
codepath compatible with GCC 4.4.0. It also adds workaround for CMake,
which cannot identify and configure this toolchain out of the box.

Notes:
- CMake doesn't recognize CeGCC/mingw32ce, necessitating tricks as seen
  with Amiga and MS-DOS.
- CMake doesn't set `MINGW` for mingw32ce. Set it and `MINGW32CE`
  manually as a helper variable, in addition to `WINCE` which CMake sets
  based on `CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME`.
- CMake fails to create an implib for `libcurl.dll`, due to not
  recognizing the platform as a Windowsy one. This patch adds the
  necessary workaround to make it work.
- headers shipping with CeGCC miss some things curl needs for Schannel
  support. Fixed by restoring and renovating code previously deleted
  old-mingw code.
- it's sometime non-trivial to figure out if a fallout is WinCE,
  mingw32ce, old-mingw, or GCC version-specific.
- WinCE is always Unicode. With exceptions: no `wmain`,
  `GetProcAddress()`.
- `_fileno()` is said to convert from `FILE *` to `void *` which is
  a Win32 file `HANDLE`. (This patch doesn't use this, but with further
  effort it probably could be.)
  https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3989545/how-do-i-get-the-file-handle-from-the-fopen-file-structure
- WinCE has no signals, current directory, stdio/CRT file handles, no
  `_get_osfhandle()`, no `errno`, no `errno.h`. Some of this stuff is
  standard C89, yet missing from this platform. Microsoft expects
  Windows CE apps to use Win32 file API and `FILE *` exclusively.
- revived CeGCC here (not tested for this PR):
  https://building.enlyze.com/posts/a-new-windows-ce-x86-compiler-in-2024/

On `UNDER_CE` vs. `_WIN32_WCE`: (This patch settled on `UNDER_CE`)

- A custom VS2008 WinCE toolchain does not set any of these.
  The compiler binaries don't contain these strings, and has no compiler
  option for targeting WinCE, hinting that a vanilla toolchain isn't
  setting any of them either.
- `UNDER_CE` is automatically defined by the CeGCC compiler.
  https://cegcc.sourceforge.net/docs/details.html
- `UNDER_CE` is similar to `_WIN32`, except it's not set automatically
  by all compilers. It's not supposed to have any value, like a version.
  (Though e.g. OpenSSL sets it to a version)
- `_WIN32_WCE` is the CE counterpart of the non-CE `_WIN32_WINNT` macro.
  That does return the targeted Windows CE version.
- `_WIN32_WCE` is not defined by compilers, and relies on a header
  setting it to a default, or the build to set it to the desired target
  version. This is also how `_WIN32_WINNT` works.
- `_WIN32_WCE` default is set by `windef.h` in CeGCC.
- `_WIN32_WCE` isn't set to a default by MSVC Windows CE headers (the
  ones I checked at least).
- CMake sets `_WIN32_WCE=<ver>`, `UNDER_CE`, `WINCE` for MSVC WinCE.
- `_WIN32_WCE` seems more popular in other projects, including CeGCC
  itself. `zlib` is a notable exception amongst curl dependencies,
  which uses `UNDER_CE`.
- Since `_WIN32_WCE` needs "certain" headers to have it defined, it's
  undefined depending on headers included beforehand.
- `curl/curl.h` re-uses `_WIN32_WCE`'s as a self-guard, relying on
  its not-(necessarily)-defined-by-default property:
  25b445e479/include/curl/curl.h (L77)

4f99efb192 easy: allow connect-only handle reuse with easy_perform
- Detach and disconnect an attached connection before performing.

Prior to this change it was not possible to safely reuse an easy handle
with an attached connection in a second call to curl_easy_perform. The
only known case of this is a connect-only type handle where the
connection was detached when curl_easy_perform returned, only to be
reattached by either curl_easy_send/recv.

This commit effectively reverts 2f8ecd5d and be82a360, the latter of
which treated the reuse as an error. Prior to that change undefined
behavior may occur in such a case.

build: drop tool_hugehelp.c.cvs, tidy up macros, drop buildconf.bat
Rework the way `tool_hugehelp.c` is included in builds.

After this patch, with `./configure` and CMake `tool_hugehelp.c` is only
compiled when building with manuals enabled. With manuals disabled this
source file is not used anymore. The method is similar to how
8a3740bc8e implemented `tool_ca_embed.c`.
`./configure` always generates it as before, otherwise the build fails.

- winbuild: rework to not need `buildconf.bat`, but automatically use
  `tool_hugehelp.c` if present (e.g. when building from an official
  source tarball) and enable `USE_MANUAL` accordingly.

- `buildconf.bat`: after dropping `tool_hugehelp.c` generation, the only
  logic left was `cp Makefile.dist Makefile`. This allowed to launch
  winbuild builds via GNU Make in a Git repo. Drop this option together
  with the batch file.

- build `libcurltool` without `USE_MANUAL` macro to exclude the manual
  and the dependence on the generator commands. Drop relying on
  `UNITTESTS` for this purpose.
  Follow-up to 96843f4ef7 #16068

- `src/mkhelp.pl`: include `tool_hugehelp.h` before using `USE_MANUAL`
  to have it set in `config-*.h` builds with source tarballs created
  with manual but without zlib.

asyn-thread: use c-ares to resolve HTTPS RR
Allow building with c-ares and yet use threaded resolver for the main
host A/AAAA resolving:

  `--with-ares` provides the c-ares install path and defaults to use
  c-ares for name resolving

  `--with-threaded-resolver` still uses c-ares in the build (for HTTPS)
  but uses the threaded resolver for "normal" resolves.

It works similarly for cmake: ENABLE_ARES enables ares, and if
ENABLE_THREADED_RESOLVER also is set, c-ares is used for HTTPS RR and
the threaded resolver for "normal" resolves.

HTTPSRR and c-ares-rr are new features return by curl_version_info() and
thus shown by curl -V.

The c-ares-rr feature bit is there to make it possible to distinguish
between builds using c-ares for all name resolves and builds that use
the threaded resolves for the regular name resolves and c-ares for
HTTPSRR only. "c-ares-rr" means it does not use c-ares for "plain" name
resolves.

HTTPSRR support is EXPERIMENTAL only.

GHA: add iOS jobs with LibreSSL, enable dependencies for Android via vcpkg
iOS:

- add jobs with autotools, CMake, CMake Xcode generator.
  The Xcode generator is >10x slower than Unix Makefiles. Keep it
  because it's the one recommended by CMake and for having its own
  quirks we may want to know about.
- build, cache and use LibreSSL for these jobs.
  With workaround for an iOS build issue fixed in master.
- make Xcode generator work by explicitly disabling code signing.
- make tests and examples build with the Xcode generator by setting
  `-DMACOSX_BUNDLE_GUI_IDENTIFIER=se.curl`, to avoid
  "Bundle identifier is missing" errors.
- cmake: disable `CURL_USE_PKGCONFIG` by default for Apple device.
- cmake: add `stdc++` library for BoringSSL and AWS-LC, with
  `OPENSSL_USE_STATIC_LIBS=ON` set.
- cmake: add workaround for Xcode generator issue, where it cannot
  handle two targets depending on one custom command. A better fix may
  be dropping `tool_hugehelp.c` and `tool_ca_embed.c` from curltool
  library. For a future PR.

Android:

- add vcpkg to Android jobs, enable dependencies.
  Assisted-by: Tal Regev via #16045
- make vcpkg work with autotools.
- pass `--with-brotli` to autotools to detect the vcpkg-supplied brotli.
- enable BoringSSL for Android and add a job with it.
- silence 457 CMake configure warnings about the Android NDK CMake
  scripts targeting freshly deprecated CMake versions.

These were much more involved than imagined. Basically nothing works out
of the box, and when combined, everything becomes a unique edge case.
autotools builds were a much easier to make work than CMake ones.

Also:

- GHA/non-native: re-sync names to be shorter and more aligned with
  other workflows.
- GHA: add `persist-credentials: false` where missing.

Unresolved issues:

- `OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR` ignored/mis-used when pointing it to LibreSSL.
  CMake seems to prepend the sysroot to the passed absolute directory.
  Found no workaround.
- CMake when combined with Android, both the Google-recommended method
  and the built-in CMake method fail to provide a way to avoid
  `pkg-config` packages at system directories. Failed to find a knob
  that can remove `/usr/include` from the search path. The workaround is
  to disable zstd. (I enabled it by default in this release, maybe
  premature?: f2adb3b6d7 #15431)
  Disabling `pkg-config` doesn't work because vcpkg dependencies do not
  link without it.
- CMake's Xcode generator is slow because each `try_compile()` feature
  check springs a new CMake + Xcode project taking a long time to run,
  just to compile single-liner C files. A known issue, with no solution.
  `-DCMAKE_MACOSX_BUNDLE=OFF` did not help, limiting build types to
  a single one (e.g. `Debug`) also had no effect.

02edae54e8 websocket: fix message send corruption
- Fix a bug in EAGAIN handling when sending frames that led to a
  corrupted last byte of the frame sent.

- Restore sanity to curl_ws_send() behaviour:

  - Partial writes are reported as OK with the actual number of
    payload bytes sent.

  - CURLE_AGAIN is only returned when none of the payload bytes
    (or for 0-length frames, not all of the frame header bytes)
    could be sent.

  - curl_ws_send() now behaves like a common send() call.

- Change 'ws-data' test client to allow concurrent send/recv
  operations and vary frame sizes and repeat count.

- Add DEBUG env var CURL_WS_CHUNK_EAGAIN to simulate blocking
  after a chunk of an encoded websocket frame has been sent.

- Add tests.


Prior to this change data corruption may occur when sending websocket
messages due to two bugs:

1) 3e64569a (precedes 8.10.0) caused a data corruption bug in the last
   byte of frame of large messages.

2) curl_ws_send had non-traditional send behavior and could return
   CURLE_AGAIN with bytes sent and expect the caller to adjust buffer
   and buflen in a subsequent call. That behavior was not documented.

DEPRECATE: remove msh3 in six months
The msh3 backed for QUIC and HTTP/3 was introduced in April 2022 but has
never been made to work properly. It has seen no visible traction or
developer activity from the msh3 main author (or anyone else seemingly
interested) in two years. As a non-functional backend, it only adds
friction and "weight" to the development and maintenance.

Meanwhile, we have a fully working backend in the ngtcp2 one and we have
two fully working backends in OpenSSL-QUIC and quiche well on their way
of ending their experimental status in a future.

We remove msh3 support from the curl source tree in July 2025.

openssl: add support to use keys and certificates from PKCS#11 provider
In OpenSSL < 3.0, the modularity was provided by mechanism called
"engines". This is supported in curl, but the engines got deprecated
with OpenSSL 3.0 in favor of more versatile providers.

This adds a support for OpenSSL Providers, to use PKCS#11 keys, namely
through the pkcs11 provider. This is done using similar approach as the
engines and this is automatically built in when the OpenSSL 3 and newer
is used.

6c70ec16c7 http: ignore invalid Retry-After times
- Treat negative Retry-After date-based times as 0.

- Treat Retry-After times greater than 6 hours as 6 hours.

Prior to this change Retry-After did not have a limited range and the
server could have set a time greater than 6 hours or a date in the past
that would result in a negative time, either of which may be unexpected
by the user.

The 6 hour limit is purposely not documented so that it can be changed
in the future if necessary.

curl/var: change byte offset syntax for assignments
Follow-up to 40c264db61 after discussions on IRC.

The new style is

  name[0-99]=contents

and

  name[0-99]@filename

A) This does not cause the same problems with old curl versions trying
the new syntax as this way will cause old curls just fail with syntax
error and not risk using the wrong file.

B) Adds the same byte range support for "normal" assigns, which the
previous syntax did not. Thus lets a user get a partial content of a
variable etc.

Added test 790 and 791 to verify non-file assigns with ranges.

Use 'banfunc' and 'allowfunc' in .checksrc to specify which functions to
ban or allow to be used. This saves us from having to edit the script
going forward when we want to ban or allow specific functions.

This replaces a set of previous rules and all banned functions are now
checked with the BANNEDFUNC rule.

There is a set of default banned functions, shown by invoking
./checksrc.

Also, -a and -b options are added to specify allowed or banned functions

c78044c07e multi: fix curl_multi_waitfds reporting of fd_count
- Make curl_multi_waitfds consistent with the documentation.

Issue Addressed:

 - The documentation of curl_multi_waitfds indicates that users should
   be able to call curl_multi_waitfds with a NULL ufds. However, before
   this change, the function would return CURLM_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT.
 - Additionally, the documentation suggests that users can use this
   function to determine the number of file descriptors (fds) needed.
   However, the function would stop counting fds if the supplied fds
   were exhausted.

Changes Made:

 - NULL ufds Handling: curl_multi_waitfds can now accept a NULL ufds if
   size is also zero.
 - Counting File Descriptors: If curl_multi_waitfds is passed a NULL
   ufds, or the size of ufds is insufficient, the output parameter
   fd_count will return the number of fds needed. This value may be
   higher than actually needed but never lower.

Testing:

 - Test 2405 has been updated to cover the usage scenarios described
   above.

39e21794a7 cookie: fix crash in netscape cookie parsing
- Parse the input string without modifying it.

Prior to this change a segfault could occur if the input string was
const because the tokenizer modified the input string. For example if
the user set CURLOPT_COOKIELIST to a const string then libcurl would
likely cause a crash when modifying that string. Even if the string was
not const or a crash did not occur there was still the incorrect and
unexpected modification of the user's input string.

This issue was caused by 30da1f59 (precedes 8.11.0) which refactored
some options parsing and eliminated the copy of the input string. Also,
an earlier commit f88cc654 incorrectly cast the input pointer when
passing it to strtok.

cmake: add librtmp Find module
The new detection method also allows to enable librtmp without using
OpenSSL as a curl TLS backend at the same time.

Also:
- implement manual version detection for librtmp.
  Version info is in hex. With CMake 3.13 and newer, extract it as a hex
  number. With earlier CMake version, just strip the leading zeroes.
  Doing more here seems overkill because librtmp has been standing
  at 2.3/2.4 for a decade now. Bumping into hex digits seems unlikely
  before deprecating CMake 3.13 support.
  librtmp advertises v2.4 via its `pkg-config` module, and v2.3 via
  its public header. The latter shows up in `curl -V` and either can
  be shown at configure-time depending on detection method.
  This isn't a curl bug.
- GHA/macos: enable rtmp in a job.
- apply the "half-detection" fix to the Find module.
  `librtmp` is also affected (in CI too), because it depends on libssl and
  libcrypto.

lib: TLS session ticket caching reworked
Described in detail in internal doc TLS-SESSIONS.md

Main points:
- use a new `ssl_peer_key` for cache lookups by connection filters
- recognize differences between TLSv1.3 and other tickets
  * TLSv1.3 tickets are single-use, cache can hold several of them for a peer
  * TLSv1.2 are reused, keep only a single one per peer
- differentiate between ticket BLOB to store (that could be persisted) and object instances
- use put/take/return pattern for cache access
- remember TLS version, ALPN protocol, time received and lifetime of ticket
- auto-expire tickets after their lifetime

  It brings cmake behavior closer to `./configure`.
  Still different:
  - `./configure` defaults to `off` which means to check default

    (Also tried `NO_CMAKE_PATH`, but then it checked less locations.)

Makefile.mk: drop in favour of autotools and cmake (MS-DOS, AmigaOS3)
`Makefile.mk` supported MS-DOS and Amiga, but `./configure` also
supported them in a better tested and more flexible way.

This patch also adds CMake support for MS-DOS/DJGPP and Amiga OS 3.

`Makefile.mk` was not maintained. Delete it in favour of first-tier
build methods.

Also include some non-MS-DOS/AmigaOS-specific tidy-up, see details at
the end of this message.

Details:

- fix/silence all MS-DOS/DJGPP build warnings and issues.
- add MS-DOS support to cmake.
  - default to `ENABLE_THREADED_RESOLVER=OFF` for MS-DOS.
  - add support for `WATT_ROOT`.
  - use static libcurl with MS-DOS.
  - fixup default CMake suffixes/prefixes for DJGPP.
  - disable hidden symbols for MS-DOS. Not supported on MS-DOS.
  - opt-in MS-DOS into `USE_UNIX_SOCKETS`.
- improve MS-DOS support in autotools.
  - default to `--disable-threaded-resolver` for MS-DOS.
- make sure to use `close_s()` (from Watt-32) with autotools and cmake.
  `Makefile.mk` used it before this patch.
- GHA: add DJGPP cmake (~30s) and autotools (~60s) build jobs.
  Also build tests and examples with cmake.
- improve AmigaOS support in autotools:
  - configure: detect `CloseSocket()` when it's a macro.
  - configure: fix `IoctlSocket` detection on AmigaOS.
  - curl-amissl.m4: pass AmiSSL libs to tests/servers.
- add AmigaOS3 support to cmake:
  - cmake: fix `HAVE_IOCTLSOCKET_CAMEL` and
    `HAVE_IOCTLSOCKET_CAMEL_FIONBIO` detections.
  - set necessary system libs.
  - add AmiSSL support.
  - inet_ntop, inet_pton: fix using it for AmigaOS. cmake detects them,
    and they did not compile with AmigaOS.
  - cmake: better sync `gethostname` detection with autotools.
    Fixes detection for AmigaOS, where `gethostname` is a macro.
  - cmake: fix `sys/utime.h` detection on AmigaOS.
  - cmake: force-disable `getaddrinfo` for AmigaOS.
  - cmake: tweak threading and static/shared default for AmigaOS.
  - cmake: rely on manual variable `AMIGA` to enable the platform.
- GHA: add AmigaOS cmake and autotools (~45s) jobs.
  Also build tests and examples with cmake.
- INSTALL: update MS-DOS and AmigaOS build instructions.
- amigaos: fix `-Wpointer-sign` and
  `zero or negative size array '_args'` in `Printf()`.
- amigaos: fix `-Wpointer-sign`
- amigaos: fix `-Wredundant-decls` `errno` and `h_errno`.
- amigaos: brute-force silence `lseek()` size warnings.
- amigaos: server/resolve: silence `-Wdiscarded-qualifiers`.
- amigaos: server/resolve: fix `-Wpointer-sign`.
- amigaos: fix `CURL_SA_FAMILY_T` type.
- nonblock: prefer `HAVE_IOCTLSOCKET_CAMEL_FIONBIO` for AmigaOS.
  `ioctl` is also detected, but fails when used. Make the above override
  it for a successful build.

build: fix MSVC UWP builds
The MSVC UWP job in CI did not actually enable UWP. Fix this and
the fallouts discovered after enabling it.

- GHA/windows: make sure to enable UWP in MSVC vcpkg UWP job.
  Use the CMake options and C flags already used for mingw-w64, but use
  `WINAPI_FAMILY_PC_APP` instead of the deprecated `WINAPI_FAMILY_APP`.
  (The former is not supported by mingw-w64, so leave it there as-is.)
  Follow-up to cb22cfca69 #14077

- GHA/windows: by default the MSVC UWP job became 2x-3x slower than
  others after actually enabling UWP. Most of it is caused by
  CMake/MSBuild automatically building full APPX containers for each
  `.exe` target. This includes 21 CMake feature detections. Each
  detection app is built into a 15MB APPX project, with code signing,
  logos, etc. Example:
    https://github.com/curl/curl/actions/runs/12056968170/job/33620610958
  Disable this overhead for curl build targets via custom
  `CMAKE_VS_GLOBALS` options. I've found no way to apply them to feature
  detection targets, so those remain slow.

- cmake: automatically enable Unicode for UWP builds. It's required.
  Also stop enabling it manually in the existing CI job.

- tests: fix `getpid()` use for Windows UWP:
  ```
  tests\server\util.c(281,21): warning C4013: 'getpid' undefined; assuming extern returning int
  ```
  Ref: https://github.com/curl/curl/actions/runs/12061215311/job/33632904249#step:11:38

- src/tool_doswin: disable `GetLoadedModulePaths()` for UWP.
  mingw-w64 UWP was okay with this, but MS SDK headers are not.
  This makes `--dump-module-paths` return empty for UWP builds.
  ```
  src\tool_doswin.c(620,3): error C2065: 'MODULEENTRY32': undeclared identifier
  src\tool_doswin.c(626,11): warning C4013: 'CreateToolhelp32Snapshot' undefined; assuming extern returning int

  ```
  Ref: https://github.com/curl/curl/actions/runs/12055081933/job/33614629930#step:9:35

- examples: fix `websocket.c` to include `winsock2.h` before `windows.h`
  to make it build with MSVC UWP:
  ```
  include\curl\curl.h(143,16): error C2061: syntax error: identifier 'curl_socket_t'
  include\curl\curl.h(143,16): error C2059: syntax error: ';'

  ```
  Ref: https://github.com/curl/curl/actions/runs/12055317910/job/33615644427#step:14:126

  ```
  LINK : warning LNK4075: ignoring '/INCREMENTAL' due to '/OPT:ICF' specification
  ```
  Ref: https://github.com/curl/curl/actions/runs/12055696808/job/33616629610#step:11:38

  performance a little.

docs: document default User-Agent
curl offers a `--user-agent` option for modifying the `User-Agent`
header supplied in its requests.

The man page section for this option explains how to use the
`--user-agent` option, but does not explain which `User-Agent` curl uses
by default.

By default, curl uses curl/VERSION, such as `User-Agent: curl/8.11.0`.

Note that this appears to be different from the libcurl default (no
User-Agent header).

This commit documents the default `User-Agent` in the man page section
for the `--user-agent` option, as well as on the "Art of Scripting"
page.

The `%VERSION` placeholder will be used to insert the current version
as described in the man page generator docs.

build: fix clang-cl builds, add CI job
- appveyor: add build-only job for clang-cl.

- cmake: `-pedantic-errors` enables `-Werror,-Wlanguage-extension-token`
  automatically, which makes `__int64` detection fail.
  Explictly disable this compiler warning for clang-cl to make the
  feature detection work and to accept `__int64` in the source code.

- cmake: disable `-Wlanguage-extension-token` warning for clang-cl
  to fix these when encountering `__int64`:
  ```
  lib/formdata.c(797,29): error : extension used [-Werror,-Wlanguage-extension-token]
  lib/warnless.c(117,33): error : extension used [-Werror,-Wlanguage-extension-token]
  lib/warnless.c(60,28): message : expanded from macro 'CURL_MASK_SCOFFT'
  lib/warnless.c(59,38): message : expanded from macro 'CURL_MASK_UCOFFT'
  include\curl/system.h(352,40): message : expanded from macro 'CURL_TYPEOF_CURL_OFF_T'
  ```

- make `__GNUC__` warning suppressions apply to `__clang__` too.
  Necessary for clang-cl, which defines the latter, but not the former.
  (Regular clang defines both.)

- examples: fix clang-cl compiler warning in `http2-upload.c`.
  ```
  docs\examples\http2-upload.c(56,5): error : no previous prototype for function 'my_gettimeofday' [-Werror,-Wmissing-prototypes]
  docs\examples\http2-upload.c(56,1): message : declare 'static' if the function is not intended to be used outside of this translation unit
  ```

cmake: document -D and env build options
Extend `INSTALL-CMAKE` document with the list of available options,
a short description and default values.

The list may not be 100% complete.

There are no component boundaries in CMake, so the line is blurry
between curl options, CMake options, CMake Find modules options.
I included certain CMake options that seemed useful, and/or have
dedicated use withing curl's CMake source. But, all CMake built-in
options are usable, as documented upstream in CMake.

The naming of the options has a heritage and the inconsistencies with
it, including a lack of clear namespace. This may be subject to future
updates, also after figuring out which name has special meaning within
CMake and/or CMake projects out of unwritten convention or something
more tangible.

CMake allows to initialize any internal variable via `-D`. This may be
useful to pre-initialize/override feature check results. The list
doesn't contain these, and they remain officially undocumented.

Also:
- make adjustments to keep the spellchecker happy.
- retrofit description changes to the cmake sources.
- stop documenting deprecated `Find*` variables.

TLS: TLSv1.3 earlydata support for curl
Based on #14135, implement TLSv1.3 earlydata support for the curl
command line, libcurl and its implementation in GnuTLS.

If a known TLS session announces early data support, and the feature is
enabled *and* it is not a "connect-only" transfer, delay the TLS
handshake until the first request is being sent.

- Add --tls-earldata as new boolean command line option for curl.
- Add CURLSSLOPT_EARLYDATA to libcurl to enable use of the feature.
- Add CURLINFO_EARLYDATA_SENT_T to libcurl, reporting the amount of
  bytes sent and accepted/rejected by the server.

Implementation details:
- store the ALPN protocol selected at the SSL session.
- When reusing the session and enabling earlydata, use exactly
  that ALPN protocol for negoptiation with the server. When the
  sessions ALPN does not match the connections ALPN, earlydata
  will not be enabled.
- Check that the server selected the correct ALPN protocol for
  an earlydata connect. If the server does not confirm or reports
  something different, the connect fails.
- HTTP/2: delay sending the initial SETTINGS frames during connect,
  if not connect-only.

Verification:
- add test_02_32 to verify earlydata GET with nghttpx.
- add test_07_70 to verify earlydata PUT with nghttpx.
- add support in 'hx-download', 'hx-upload' clients for the feature

curl: add options for safe/no CA bundle search (Windows)
Add `CURL_CA_SEARCH_SAFE` build-time option to enable CA bundle search
in the `curl` tool directory. The lookup method was already used to find
`.curlrc` and `_curlrc` (on Windows). On Windows it overrides the unsafe
default `SearchPath()` method.

Enable with:
- cmake: `-DCURL_CA_SEARCH_SAFE=ON`
- autotools: `--enable-ca-search-safe`
- raw: `CPPFLAGS=-DCURL_CA_SEARCH_SAFE`

On Windows, before this patch the whole `PATH` was searched for
a CA bundle. `PATH` may contain unwanted or world-writable locations,
including the current directory. Searching them all is convenient to
pick up any CA bundle, but not secure.

The Muldersoft curl distro implements such CA search via a custom
patch for Windows:
cd652d4792/patch/curl_tool_doswin.diff (L50)

MSYS2/mingw-w64 distro has also been rolling a patch solving this:
https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/blob/master/mingw-w64-curl/0001-Make-cURL-relocatable.patch
https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/blob/master/mingw-w64-curl/pathtools.c

Also add option to fully disable Windows CA search:
- cmake: `-DCURL_DISABLE_CA_SEARCH=ON`
- autotools: `--disable-ca-search`
- raw: `CPPFLAGS=-DCURL_DISABLE_CA_SEARCH`.

Both options are considered EXPERIMENTAL, with possible incompatible
changes or even (partial) removal in the future, depending on feedback.

An alternative, secure option is to embed the CA bundle into the binary.

Safe search can be extended to other platforms if necessary or useful,
by using `_NSGetExecutablePath()` (macOS),
`/proc/self/exe` (Linux/Cygwin), or `argv[0]`.

cmake: fix broken dependency chain for cmdline-opts, tidy-ups
- make `curl.1` and `curl.txt` depend on `DPAGES`.
  To trigger a rebuild when an individual manpage is updated.

- tell CMake that the cmdline-opts command also creates `curl.txt`.

- make `tool_hugehelp.c` depend on `curl.txt` (was: `curl.1`), to match
  what it actually uses for input.

- stop using `generate-curl.1` as an indirect way to create `curl.txt`
  in time for `tool_hugehelp.c`. After the fixes above there is a direct
  depedency chain between them.

- move `ASCIIPAGE` and `MANPAGE` variables to top-level, re-use them in
  `src` and prefix them with `CURL_` to avoid clashing with other
  projects.

- drop double quotes from `generate-curl.1` as a hint that it is not
  a filename, but a target name.

cmake: separate target for examples, optimize CI, fix fallouts
- Move `docs/examples` builds under a separate target.

- Make `BUILD_EXAMPLES` default to `ON`. It means to generate the rules
  for `docs/examples` by default, but not build them. To build them,
  an explicit `make curl-examples` (or ninja, etc) command is necessary.
  This syncs behaviour with autotools, and also how both cmake and
  autotools are building tests.

- GHA: update cmake jobs to use the new way of building examples.

- GHA: move examples build step at the end of the job, after building
  and running tests. This allows to have build and test run results
  faster, and leave the seldom-changing examples build to the end.
  Building examples is the slowest build step with no practical way to
  make them fast.

- examples: fix examples to build cleanly with old MSVC versions.

- GHA/non-native: move example build log under a GHA foldable section.

vtls/rustls: support strong CSRNG data
Now that the curl rustls vtls backend is using rustls 0.14 we can
address the weak random situation by using
`rustls_default_crypto_provider_random()` to provide a `Curl_ssl`
`random` callback that fills the provided buffer with cryptographically
secure random data.

The mentions in `docs/` about weak RNG when using rustls are removed as
they are no longer applicable.

vtls/rustls: rustls-ffi 0.14.0 update
* Documentation is updated to describe new required version, and to link
  to the upstream README about cryptography providers.
* GitHub workflow is updated to fetch 0.14.0.
* Breaking changes in`lib/vtls/rustls.c` are addressed:
  * The `rustls_client_config_builder_build()` function now uses an out
    parameter for the built config instead of returning it directly.
    This allows the building process to fail if the default crypto
    provider state isn't appropriate, or another error condition occurs.
  * Default ciphersuites are collected using renamed functions named to
    make it clear the ciphersuites are associated with the default
    crypto provider.
  * Customization of ciphersuites is now done via
    a `rustls_crypto_provider_builder` used to instantiate a
    `rustls_crypto_provider`. The customized provider can then can be
    used with `rustls_client_config_builder_new_custom` in place of
    providing ciphersuites directly.
  * `rustls_connection_get_negotiated_ciphersuite()` now returns the
    ciphersuite ID directly.

printf: fix mingw-w64 format checks
Change mingw-w64 printf format checks in public curl headers to use
`__MINGW_PRINTF_FORMAT` instead of `gnu_printf`. This syncs the format
checker with format string macros published via `curl/system.h`. (Also
disable format checks for mingw-w64 older than 3.0.0 (2013-09-20) and
classic-mingw, which do not support this macro.)

This fixes bogus format checker `-Wformat` warnings in 3rd party code
using curl format strings with the curl printf functions, when using
mingw-w64 7.0.0 (2019-11-10) and older (with GCC, MSVCRT).

It also allows to delete two workaounds for this within curl itself:
- setting `-D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO=1` for mingw-w64 via cmake and
  configure for `docs/examples` and `tests/http/clients`.
  Ref: c730c8549b #14640

The format check macro is incompatible (depending on mingw-w64 version
and configuration) with the C99 `%z` (`size_t`) format string used
internally by curl.

To work around this problem, override the format check style in curl
public headers to use `gnu_printf`. This is compatible with `%z` in all
mingw-w64 versions and allows keeping the C99 format strings internally.

Also:
- lib/ws.c: add missing space to an error message.
- docs/examples/ftpgetinfo.c: fix to use standard printf.

build: make CURL_FORMAT_CURL_OFF_T[U] work with mingw-w64 <=7.0.0
Add tweak for mingw-w64 when building tests/http/client programs to
avoid a bogus `-Wformat` warning when using mingw-w64 v7.0.0 or older.
The warning is bogus because these programs use curl's `printf()`
implementation that is guaranteed to support that format spec.

Add this for both CMake and autotools. (But only CMake is CI tested with
an old toolchain.)

Apply the workaround to `docs/examples`, and fix an example to use
curl's `printf()` with `CURL_FORMAT_CURL_OFF_T`.

Reintroduce curl `printf()` calls into `tests/http/client`, via #14625.

This change now makes manage work on wrapping long example command lines
to make them look nicer. And also to avoid triggering the build error
caused by too long lines in the output.

Quoted lines cannot be wrapped, so managen now errors out if they are
"too long". With this addition, the 'maxline' script is removed as it is
no longer needed.

docs: update CIPHERS.md
Give a more consice overview of curl's cipher options and cipher suites.

Removed long lists of ciphers that were directly copied from the SSL
backends' documentation. Instead present the user a more common aproach
acorss the SSL backends, with notes for backends that do not conform
and/or provide alternate means.

Provide a shorter list of cipher suites that is more relevant for modern
usage and should work mostly across all backends, provide a seperate
list with all cipher suites, and provide links to the SSL backends'
documentation for more information.

Also give examples with modern cipher suites.

wolfssl: fix CURLOPT_SSLVERSION
Before, setting CURLOPT_SSLVERSION with wolfSSL restricted the the tls
proto to just the specified version. Now it properly supports a range.
So it can set the min and max tls proto (max requires wolfSSL 4.2.0).

Bump the absolute minimum required version of wolfSSL to 3.4.6 (released
2015) because it is needed for the wolfSSL_CTX_SetMinVersion() function.

websocket: introduce blocking sends
When using `curl_ws_send()`, perform a blocking send of the data under
the following conditions:

- the websocket is in raw mode and the call is done from within a curl
  callback. A partial write of the data could subsequently mess up the
  ws framing, as a callback has a hard time handling this.

- the websocket is encoding the data itself, has added it to its
  internal sendbuf. A partial flush of the buffer has unclear semantics
  for the caller, as they will have no idea what to send again.

Fixes WebSockets tests with CURL_DBG_SOCK_WBLOCK=90 set.

- Each list node struct now points back to the list it "lives in", so
  Curl_node_remove() no longer needs the list pointer.

- stop adding non-existing generated `include` dir to header path.
  There are no generated `include` headers and this directory is either
  missing in out-of-tree builds or the same as the one already added
  globally via the root `CMakeLists.txt`.

- lib: stop adding a duplicate source include directory to the header

- lib: stop adding the project root to the header path.

- docs/examples: drop internal header paths.
  Examples do not and should not use internal headers.

  the header actually used, and also referred to in autotools comments.

- add comment why we need `src` in include path for `tests/server`.

573aaec3be easy: fix curl_easy_upkeep for shared connection caches
- Determine which connection cache is or will be used by the easy handle
  and perform connection upkeep on that cache.

This change allows curl_easy_upkeep to be effective on easy handles that
are using a shared connection cache, either from a user created shared
connection cache or a user created multi which has its own shared
connection cache.

Prior to this change curl_easy_upkeep would upkeep the connection cache
for the easy handle only if that cache was from the multi owned by the
easy handle (ie curl_easy_perform was previously called and there's a
connection cache exclusive to the easy handle in
data->multi_easy->conn_cache).

b7e769dc87 vtls: stop offering alpn http/1.1 for http2-prior-knowledge
- For HTTPS if http2-prior-knowledge is set then only offer h2 (HTTP/2)
  alpn to the server for protocol negotiation.

Prior to this change both HTTP/2 ("h2") and HTTP/1.1 ("http/1.1") were
offered for ALPN when http2-prior-knowledge was set.

CURL_HTTP_VERSION_2_PRIOR_KNOWLEDGE (tool: --http2-prior-knowledge) is
meant to send non-TLS HTTP requests HTTP/2 when it is known the server
supports them. However when HTTPS is used then it attempts to first
negotiate the connection with ALPN. In that case the user likely does
not want to offer http/1.1 to the server as an acceptable protocol.

curl: support embedding a CA bundle
Add the ability to embed a CA bundle into the curl binary. It is used
when no other runtime or build-time option set one.

This helps curl-for-win macOS and Linux builds to run standalone, and
also helps Windows builds to avoid picking up the CA bundle from an
arbitrary (possibly world-writable) location (though this behaviour is
not currently disablable).

Usage:
- cmake: `-DCURL_CA_EMBED=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
- autotools: `--with-ca-embed=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
- Makefile.mk: `CURL_CA_EMBED=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`

Also add new command-line option `--dump-ca-embed` to dump the embedded
CA bundle to standard output.

lib: graceful connection shutdown
When libcurl discards a connection there are two phases this may go
through: "shutdown" and "closing". If a connection is aborted, the
shutdown phase is skipped and it is closed right away.

The connection filters attached to the connection implement the phases
in their `do_shutdown()` and `do_close()` callbacks. Filters carry now a
`shutdown` flags next to `connected` to keep track of the shutdown
operation.

Filters are shut down from top to bottom. If a filter is not connected,
its shutdown is skipped. Notable filters that *do* something during
shutdown are HTTP/2 and TLS. HTTP/2 sends the GOAWAY frame. TLS sends
its close notify and expects to receive a close notify from the server.

As sends and receives may EAGAIN on the network, a shutdown is often not
successful right away and needs to poll the connection's socket(s). To
facilitate this, such connections are placed on a new shutdown list
inside the connection cache.

Since managing this list requires the cooperation of a multi handle,
only the connection cache belonging to a multi handle is used. If a
connection was in another cache when being discarded, it is removed
there and added to the multi's cache. If no multi handle is available at
that time, the connection is shutdown and closed in a one-time,
best-effort attempt.

When a multi handle is destroyed, all connection still on the shutdown
list are discarded with a final shutdown attempt and close. In curl
debug builds, the environment variable `CURL_GRACEFUL_SHUTDOWN` can be
set to make this graceful with a timeout in milliseconds given by the
variable.

The shutdown list is limited to the max number of connections configured
for a multi cache. Set via CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS. When the
limit is reached, the oldest connection on the shutdown list is
discarded.

- In multi_wait() and multi_waitfds(), collect all connection caches
  involved (each transfer might carry its own) into a temporary list.
  Let each connection cache on the list contribute sockets and
  POLLIN/OUT events it's connections are waiting for.

- in multi_perform() collect the connection caches the same way and let
  them peform their maintenance. This will make another non-blocking
  attempt to shutdown all connections on its shutdown list.

- for event based multis (multi->socket_cb set), add the sockets and
  their poll events via the callback. When `multi_socket()` is invoked
  for a socket not known by an active transfer, forward this to the
  multi's cache for processing. On closing a connection, remove its
  socket(s) via the callback.

TLS connection filters MUST NOT send close nofity messages in their
`do_close()` implementation. The reason is that a TLS close notify
signals a success. When a connection is aborted and skips its shutdown
phase, the server needs to see a missing close notify to detect
something has gone wrong.

A graceful shutdown of FTP's data connection is performed implicitly
before regarding the upload/download as complete and continuing on the
control connection. For FTP without TLS, there is just the socket close
happening. But with TLS, the sent/received close notify signals that the
transfer is complete and healthy. Servers like `vsftpd` verify that and
reject uploads without a TLS close notify.

- added test_19_* for shutdown related tests
- test_19_01 and test_19_02 test for TCP RST packets
  which happen without a graceful shutdown and should
  no longer appear otherwise.
- add test_19_03 for handling shutdowns by the server
- add test_19_04 for handling shutdowns by curl
- add test_19_05 for event based shutdowny by server
- add test_30_06/07 and test_31_06/07 for shutdown checks
  on FTP up- and downloads.

connection: shutdown TLS (for FTP) better
This adds connection shutdown infrastructure and first use for FTP. FTP
data connections, when not encountering an error, are now shut down in a
blocking way with a 2sec timeout.

    - add cfilter `Curl_cft_shutdown` callback
    - keep a shutdown start timestamp and timeout at connectdata
    - provide shutdown timeout default and member in
      `data->set.shutdowntimeout`.
    - provide methods for starting, interrogating and clearing
      shutdown timers
    - provide `Curl_conn_shutdown_blocking()` to shutdown the
      `sockindex` filter chain in a blocking way. Use that in FTP.
    - add `Curl_conn_cf_poll()` to wait for socket events during
      shutdown of a connection filter chain.
      This gets the monitoring sockets and events via the filters
      "adjust_pollset()" methods. This gives correct behaviour when
      shutting down a TLS connection through a HTTP/2 proxy.
    - Implement shutdown for all socket filters
      - for HTTP/2 and h2 proxying to send GOAWAY
      - for TLS backends to the best of their capabilities
      - for tcp socket filter to make a final, nonblocking
        receive to avoid unwanted RST states
    - add shutdown forwarding to happy eyeballers and
      https connect ballers when applicable.

curl: (on linux) add MPTCP support
Multipath TCP (MPTCP), standardized in RFC8684 [1], is a TCP extension
that enables a TCP connection to use different paths.

Multipath TCP has been used for several use cases. On smartphones, MPTCP
enables seamless handovers between cellular and Wi-Fi networks while
preserving established connections. This use-case is what pushed Apple
to use MPTCP since 2013 in multiple applications [2]. On dual-stack
hosts, Multipath TCP enables the TCP connection to automatically use the
best performing path, either IPv4 or IPv6. If one path fails, MPTCP
automatically uses the other path.

To benefit from MPTCP, both the client and the server have to support
it. Multipath TCP is a backward-compatible TCP extension that is enabled
by default on recent Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, Redhat, ...).
Multipath TCP is included in the Linux kernel since version 5.6 [3]. To
use it on Linux, an application must explicitly enable it when creating
the socket. No need to change anything else in the application.

This attached patch adds an --mptcp option which allows the creation of
an MPTCP socket instead of TCP on Linux. If Multipath TCP is not
supported on the system, an error will be reported. It is important to
note that if the end server doesn't support MPTCP, the connection will
continue after a seamless fallback to TCP.

socket: support binding to interface *AND* IP
Introduce new notation for CURLOPT_INTERFACE / --interface:
ifhost!<interface>!<host>

Binding to an interface doesn't set the address, and an interface can
have multiple addresses.

When binding to an address (without interface), the kernel is free to
choose the route, and it can route through any device that can access
the target address, not necessarily the one with the chosen address.

Moreover, it is possible for different interfaces to have the same IP
address, on which case we need to provide a way to be more specific.

Factor out the parsing part of interface option, and add unit tests:
1663.

- Remove the locking callback code that demonstrates how to meet

Locking callback code has not been needed for many years. According to

urlapi: add CURLU_NO_GUESS_SCHEME
Used for extracting:

- when used asking for a scheme, it will return CURLUE_NO_SCHEME if the
  stored information was a guess

- when used asking for a URL, the URL is returned without a scheme, like
  when previously given to the URL parser when it was asked to guess

- as soon as the scheme is set explicitly, it is no longer internally
  marked as guessed

The idea being:

1. allow a user to figure out if a URL's scheme was set as a result of
  guessing

2. extract the URL without a guessed scheme

3. this makes it work similar to how we already deal with port numbers

Extend test 1560 to verify.

9aae9bf817 openssl: revert keylog_callback support for LibreSSL
- Revert to the legacy TLS 1.2 key logging code for LibreSSL.

- Document SSLKEYLOGFILE for LibreSSL is TLS 1.2 max.

Prior to this change if the user specified a filename in the
SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable and was using LibreSSL 3.5.0+ then
an empty file would be created and no keys would be logged.

This is effectively a revert of e43474b4 which changed openssl.c to use
SSL_CTX_set_keylog_callback for LibreSSL 3.5.0+. Unfortunately LibreSSL
added that function only as a stub that doesn't actually do anything.
