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.

Some curl command-lines are long, often repetitive, and difficult
to read or write:
Before this patch (1 test == 1 line):
- <=78 characters: 1099 tests
- 79-132 characters: 500 tests
- 133+ characters: 217 tests: patch meant to help with some of these.
After this patch:
- <=78 characters: 1288 lines
- 79-132 characters: 526 lines
- 133+ characters: 190 lines
After this patch it's possible to fold long lines into multiple ones.
Folding can reduce greppability, thus this is primarily useful for cases
when the options are repetitive, e.g. a list of form options, headers,
mail parameters and the like.
Closes#19500
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
Some feature names used in tests had minor differences compared to
the well-known ones from `curl -V`. This patch syncs them to make test
results easier to grok.
Closes#14183
missing CRs and modified %hostip
lib556/test556: use a real HTTP version to make test reuse more convenient
make sure the weekday in Date headers matches the date
test61: replace stray "^M" (5e 4d) at the end of a cookie with a '^M' (0d)
Gets the test working with external proxies like Privoxy again.
Closes#6463
When the initial request isn't possible to send in its entirety, the
remainder of request would be delivered to the debug callback as data
and would wrongly be counted internally as body-bytes sent.
Extended test 1295 to verify.
Closes#6328
test1294: "split request" being when the entire request isn't sent in
the first go, and the remainder is sent in the PERFORM state. A GET
request is otherwise not sending anything during PERFORM.
test1295: same kind of split but with POST
Closes#5197
