To formalize they are now XML-compliant (with some asterisks.)
Also to help syntax highlighters work on them to make their content more
readable.
Also:
- Delete empty comment decorations.
- GHA/checksrc: simplify XML check.
- runtests: fail to load test data with XML prolog missing.

Reduce number of files failing `xmllint --format` from 133 to 57 (-76)
(3% of 1894), by replacing `<` and `>` with new macro `%LT` and `%GT`,
in most places, which is in email addresses (192 lines).

There remain some false positives, hits in test data, and `dir` use,
around 100 issues in total.
There is no plan to enforce badwords on tests.
Also:
- badwords.txt: let a few `manpage[s]` occurrences through
(in Perl code).
Closes#19541
- `reply/data*`, `verify/stdout`, `verify/stderr`, `verify/file*`,
`verify/proxy`:
- make `crlf="yes"` force CRLF to all lines, instead of just applying
to HTTP protocol headers.
- add support for `crlf="headers"` that only converts HTTP protocol
header lines to CRLF. (previously done via `crlf="yes"`.)
- use `crlf="headers"` where possible.
- `reply/connect*`:
- add support for `crlf="yes"` and `crlf="headers"`.
- use them where possible.
- `client/file*`, `client/stdin`:
- add support for `crlf="yes"`.
- use it where possible.
- `reply/data*`, `verify/protocol`:
- replace existing uses of `crlf="yes"` with `crlf="headers`" where it
does not change the result.
Reducing the number of `tests/data/test*`:
- CRLF newlines from 10295 to 1985. (119985 lines total)
- files with mixed newlines from 656 to 113. (1890 files total)
After this patch there remain 141 sections with mixed newlines, where
the mixing is not split between headers/non-headers. There is no obvious
pattern here. Some of the CRLF uses might be accidental, or
non-significant. They will be tackled in a future patch.

To make special newlines more explicit and visible.
Mostly in `<protocol>` sections, some in `<data*>` and `<upload>`.
Reducing the number of `tests/data/test*`:
- CRLF newlines from 21535 to 11337.
- files with mixed newlines from 1335 to 707.
Also delete empty `<protocol>` sections.
Closes#19284
The threee tags `<name>`, `</name>` and `<command>` were frequently used
with a leading space that this removes. The reason this habbit is so
widespread in testcases is probably that they have been copy and pasted.
Hence, fixing them all now might curb this practice from now on.
Closes#12028
Generate alphanumerical random strings.
Prior this change curl used to create random hex strings. This was
mostly okay, but having alphanumerical random strings is better: The
strings have more entropy in the same space.
The MIME multipart boundary used to be mere 64-bits of randomness due
to being 16 hex chars. With these changes the boundary is 22
alphanumerical chars, or little over 130 bits of randomness.
Closes#11838
Until now, form field and file names where escaped using the
backslash-escaping algorithm defined for multipart mails. This commit
replaces this with the percent-escaping method for URLs.
As this may introduce incompatibilities with server-side applications, a
new libcurl option CURLOPT_MIME_OPTIONS with bitmask
CURLMIMEOPT_FORMESCAPE is introduced to revert to legacy use of
backslash-escaping. This is controlled by new cli tool option
--form-escape.
New tests and documentation are provided for this feature.
