share: concurrency handling, easy updates
Replace the `volatile int dirty` with a reference counter
protected by a mutex when available.

Solve the problem of when to call application's lock function
by adding a volatile flag that indicates a share has been added
to easy handles in its lifetime. That flag ever goes from
FALSE to TRUE, so volatile might work (in the absence of a mutex).

(The problem is that the lock/unlock functions need 2-3
`curl_share_setopt()` invocations to become usable and there
is no way of telling if the third will ever happen. Calling
the lock function before the 3rd setopt may crash the
application.)

When removing a share from an easy handle (or replacing it with
another share), detach the easy connection on a share with a
connection pool.

When cleaning up a share, allow this even if it is still used in
easy handles. It will be destroyed when the reference count
drops to 0.

build: stop overriding standard memory allocation functions
Before this patch curl used the C preprocessor to override standard
memory allocation symbols: malloc, calloc, strdup, realloc, free.
The goal of these is to replace them with curl's debug wrappers in
`CURLDEBUG` builds, another was to replace them with the wrappers
calling user-defined allocators in libcurl. This solution needed a bunch
of workarounds to avoid breaking external headers: it relied on include
order to do the overriding last. For "unity" builds it needed to reset
overrides before external includes. Also in test apps, which are always
built as single source files. It also needed the `(symbol)` trick
to avoid overrides in some places. This would still not fix cases where
the standard symbols were macros. It was also fragile and difficult
to figure out which was the actual function behind an alloc or free call
in a specific piece of code. This in turn caused bugs where the wrong
allocator was accidentally called.

To avoid these problems, this patch replaces this solution with
`curlx_`-prefixed allocator macros, and mapping them _once_ to either
the libcurl wrappers, the debug wrappers or the standard ones, matching
the rest of the code in libtests.

This concludes the long journey to avoid redefining standard functions
in the curl codebase.

Note: I did not update `packages/OS400/*.c` sources. They did not
`#include` `curl_setup.h`, `curl_memory.h` or `memdebug.h`, meaning
the overrides were never applied to them. This may or may not have been
correct. For now I suppressed the direct use of standard allocators
via a local `.checksrc`. Probably they (except for `curlcl.c`) should be
updated to include `curl_setup.h` and use the `curlx_` macros.

This patch changes mappings in two places:
- `lib/curl_threads.c` in libtests: Before this patch it mapped to
  libcurl allocators. After, it maps to standard allocators, like
  the rest of libtests code.
- `units`: before this patch it mapped to standard allocators. After, it
  maps to libcurl allocators.

Also:
- drop all position-dependent `curl_memory.h` and `memdebug.h` includes,
  and delete the now unnecessary headers.
- rename `Curl_tcsdup` macro to `curlx_tcsdup` and define like the other
  allocators.
- map `curlx_strdup()` to `_strdup()` on Windows (was: `strdup()`).
  To fix warnings silenced via `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE`.
- multibyte: map `curlx_convert_*()` to `_strdup()` on Windows
  (was: `strdup()`).
- src: do not reuse the `strdup` name for the local replacement.
- lib509: call `_strdup()` on Windows (was: `strdup()`).
- test1132: delete test obsoleted by this patch.
- CHECKSRC.md: update text for `SNPRINTF`.
- checksrc: ban standard allocator symbols.

build: drop Windows CE / CeGCC support
Windows CE support was limited to successful builds with ming32ce
(a toolchain that hasn't seen an update since 2009, using an ancient gcc
version and "old mingw"-style SDK headers, that curl deprecated earlier).
Builds with MSVC were broken for a long time. mingw32ce builds were never
actually tested and runtime and unlikely to work due to missing stubs.
Windows CE toolchains also miss to comply with C89. Paired with lack of
demand and support for the platform, curl deprecated it earlier.

This patch removes support from the codebase to ease maintaining Windows
codepaths.

thread: errno on thread creation

windows: replace _beginthreadex() with CreateThread()

`CreateThread()`. The latter was already used in `src/tool_doswin.c`
and in UWP and Windows CE builds before this patch. After this patch

threaded-resolver: fix shutdown
Changed strategy to start up and terminate resolver thread.

When starting up:

Start the thread with mutex acquired, wait for signal from thread that
it started and has incremented the ref counter. Thread set
pthread_cancel() to disabled before that and only enables cancelling
during resolving itself. This assure that the ref counter is correct and
the unlinking of the resolve context always happens.

When shutting down resolving:

If ref counting shows thread has finished, join it, free everything. If
thread has not finished, try pthread_cancel() (non Windows), but keep
the thread handle around.

When destroying resolving:

Shutdown first, then, if the thread is still there and 'quick_exit' is
not set, join it and free everything. This might occur a delay if
getaddrinfo() hangs and cannot be interrupted by pthread_cancel().

Destroying resolving happens when another resolve is started on an
easy handle or when the easy handle is closed.

Add test795 to check that connect timeout triggers correctly
when resolving is delayed. Add debug env var `CURL_DNS_DELAY_MS`
to simulate delays in resolving.

Fix test1557 to set `quick_exit` and use `xxx.invalid` as domain
instead of `nothing` that was leading to hangers in CI.

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.

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.

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:

openssl: fix the data race when sharing an SSL session between threads
The SSL_Session object is mutated during connection inside openssl,
and it might not be thread-safe. Besides, according to documentation
of openssl:

```
SSL_SESSION objects keep internal link information about the session
cache list, when being inserted into one SSL_CTX object's session
cache. One SSL_SESSION object, regardless of its reference count,
must therefore only be used with one SSL_CTX object (and the SSL
objects created from this SSL_CTX object).
```
If I understand correctly, it is not safe to share it even in a
single thread.

Instead, serialize the SSL_SESSION before adding it to the cache,
and deserialize it after retrieving it from the cache, so that no
concurrent write to the same object is infeasible.

Also
 - add a ci test for thread sanitizer
 - add a test for sharing ssl sessions concurrently
 - avoid redefining memory functions when not building libcurl, but
   including the soruce in libtest
 - increase the concurrent connections limit in sws

Notice that there are fix for a global data race for openssl which
is not yet release. The fix is cherry pick for the ci test with
thread sanitizer.

97e5e37cc8/tests/server/util.c (L604-L606)
and in `sockfilt.c`, `lib3026.c`.

Before this patch it returned `unsigned int`.

428579f5d1 asyn-thread: fix curl_global_cleanup crash in Windows
- Make sure that asynchronous resolves handled by Winsock are stopped
  before WSACleanup is called.

This is implemented by ensuring that when Curl_resolver_kill is called
(eg via multi_done) it will cancel the Winsock asynchronous resolve and
wait for the cancellation to complete. Winsock runs the asynchronous
completion routine immediately when a resolve is canceled.

Prior to this change it was possible that during curl_global_cleanup
"a DNS resolver thread created by GetAddrInfoExW did not terminate yet,
however curl is already shutting down, deinitializing Winsock with
WSACleanup() leading to an access violation."

Background:

If libcurl is built with the asynchronous threaded resolver option for
Windows then it resolves in one of two ways. For Windows 8.1 and later,
libcurl resolves by using the Winsock asynchronous resolver which does
its own thread management. For older versions of Windows, libcurl
resolves by creating a separate thread that calls getaddrinfo. This
change only affects the former and it's already handled for the latter.

mingw: delete support for legacy mingw.org toolchain
Drop support for "old" / "legacy" / "classic" / "v1" / "mingw32" MinGW:
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MinGW, https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/
Its homepage used to be http://mingw.org/ [no HTTPS], and broken now.
It supported the x86 CPU only and used a old Windows API header and
implib set, often causing issues. It also misses most modern Windows
features, offering old versions of both binutils and gcc (no llvm/clang
support). It was last updated 2 years ago.

curl now relies on toolchains based on the mingw-w64 project:
https://www.mingw-w64.org/  https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/
https://www.msys2.org/  https://github.com/msys2/msys2

tidy-up: process.h detection and use
This patch aims to cleanup the use of `process.h` header and the macro
`HAVE_PROCESS_H` associated with it.

- `process.h` is always available on Windows. In curl, it is required
  only for `_beginthreadex()` in `lib/curl_threads.c`.

- `process.h` is also available in MS-DOS. In curl, its only use was in
  `lib/smb.c` for `getpid()`. But `getpid()` is in fact declared by
  `unistd.h`, which is always enabled via `lib/config-dos.h`. So the
  header is not necessary.

- `HAVE_PROCESS_H` was detected by CMake, forced to 1 on Windows and
  left to real detection for other platforms.
  It was also set to always-on in `lib/config-win32.h` and
  `lib/config-dos.h`.
  In autotools builds, there was no detection and the macro was never
  set.

Based on these observations, in this patch we:

- Rework Windows `getpid` logic in `lib/smb.c` to always use the
  equivalent direct Win32 API function `GetCurrentProcessId()`, as we
  already did for Windows UWP apps. This makes `process.h` unnecessary
  here on Windows.

- Stop #including `process.h` into files where it was not necessary.
  This is everywhere, except `lib/curl_threads.c`.

  > Strangely enough, `lib/curl_threads.c` compiled fine with autotools
  > because `process.h` is also indirecty included via `unistd.h`. This
  > might have been broken in autotools MSVC builds, where the latter
  > header is missing.

- Delete all remaining `HAVE_PROCESS_H` feature guards, for they were
  unnecessary.

- Delete `HAVE_PROCESS_H` detection from CMake and predefined values
  from `lib/config-*.h` headers.

0f4a03cbb6 free: instead of Curl_safefree()
Since we just started make use of free(NULL) in order to simplify code,
this change takes it a step further and:

- converts lots of Curl_safefree() calls to good old free()
- makes Curl_safefree() not check the pointer before free()

The (new) rule of thumb is: if you really want a function call that
frees a pointer and then assigns it to NULL, then use Curl_safefree().
But we will prefer just using free() from now on.

5a053ffe80 build: fix circular header inclusion with other packages
This commit renames lib/setup.h to lib/curl_setup.h and
renames lib/setup_once.h to lib/curl_setup_once.h.

Removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard foreign
to libcurl. [1]

Removes the need and presence of an alarming notice we carried
in old setup_once.h [2]

----------------------------------------

1 - lib/setup_once.h used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro as header inclusion guard
    up to commit ec691ca3 which changed this to HEADER_CURL_SETUP_ONCE_H,
    this single inclusion guard is enough to ensure that inclusion of
    lib/setup_once.h done from lib/setup.h is only done once.

    Additionally lib/setup.h has always used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro to
    protect inclusion of setup_once.h even after commit ec691ca3, this
    was to avoid a circular header inclusion triggered when building a
    c-ares enabled version with c-ares sources available which also has
    a setup_once.h header. Commit ec691ca3 exposes the real nature of
    __SETUP_ONCE_H usage in lib/setup.h, it is a header inclusion guard
    foreign to libcurl belonging to c-ares's setup_once.h

    The renaming this commit does, fixes the circular header inclusion,
    and as such removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard
    foreign to libcurl. Macro __SETUP_ONCE_H no longer used in libcurl.

2 - Due to the circular interdependency of old lib/setup_once.h and the
    c-ares setup_once.h header, old file lib/setup_once.h has carried
    back from 2006 up to now days an alarming and prominent notice about
    the need of keeping libcurl's and c-ares's setup_once.h in sync.

    Given that this commit fixes the circular interdependency, the need
    and presence of mentioned notice is removed.

    All mentioned interdependencies come back from now old days when
    the c-ares project lived inside a curl subdirectory. This commit
    removes last traces of such fact.
