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.

test 1459 "SFTP with corrupted known_hosts" was seen failing in the past.
To fix it, the test was automatically disabled when detecting libssh
0.9.3 or older, as in the curl CircleCI job, running on Ubuntu 20.04.
This work for a long time, until bumping the CircleCI runner to Ubuntu
22.04 (to have OpenSSL 3), where the test was running again, and failing
with the isssue seen in the past.
- Test skipped with Ubuntu 20.04 (libssh 0.9.3):

- Failure seen with Ubuntu 22.04 (libssh 0.9.6):

- Failure seen with Ubuntu 24.04 (libssh 0.10.6):

Turns out the issue issue isn't libssh 0.9.3 itself, but
a CircleCI-specific default configuration in `/etc/ssh/ssh_config`:
```
# BEGIN ANSIBLE MANAGED BLOCK
Host *
StrictHostKeyChecking no <------ this particular line
HashKnownHosts no
SendEnv LANG LC_*
# END ANSIBLE MANAGED BLOCK
```
libssh will consult configuration files on hard-coded default system
locations and alter its behavior based on settings found in them.
This libssh behavior is present in all supported versions:
5a2abd34cehttps://gitlab.com/libssh/libssh-mirror/-/tags/libssh-0.9.0
It means the existing disable logic based on libssh version worked by
coincidence, and what needs to be checked is these configurations
to decide if it's safe to run the test. Another, simpler option is
to also accept the result code 67, though in that case the test
wouldn't actually test what we want, but would pass anyway.
With the old `oldlibssh` workaround deleted, and the problematic setting
manually overridden (`StrictHostKeyChecking yes`):
- CircleCI Ubuntu 20.04 passes with 1459 enabled:
https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/curl/curl/16483/workflows/87a9f389-76a2-4a32-acde-c0b411a4c842/jobs/155302
- CircleCI Ubuntu 22.04 does too:
https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/curl/curl/16483/workflows/87a9f389-76a2-4a32-acde-c0b411a4c842/jobs/155303
To fix, replace the `runtests` `oldlibssh` detection logic to parse
libssh config files (instead of checking for libssh version) and disable
test 1459 based on that. Notice the detection is making a light attempt
to parse these files, and does not implement most config file features
(such as includes, quoted values and `=` operator.)
The new runtests workaround tests OK with the:
- default CircleCI configuration, disabling 1459 automatically.
- a sudoless configuration fix, with 1459 run successfully.
Also keep setting this option in CircleCI jobs.
- a sudo configuration fix, with 1459 run successfully.

GHA jobs are not affected and they work fine, with 1459 running successfully
before and after this patch.
It's possible the libssh API offers ways to control config file use
and/or set the strict host checking option programatically. Maybe
to enable in debug mode (albeit CircleCI job are not debug-enabled),
or offer an option for them. It may be something for a future patch.

Fix issues detected.
Also:
- One of the `.vc` files used LF EOLs, while the other didn't.
Make that one also use LF EOLs, as this is apparently supported by
`nmake`.
- Drop `.dsw` and `.btn` types from `.gitattributes`.
The repository doesn't use them.
- Sync section order with the rest of files in
`tests/certs/EdelCurlRoot-ca.prm`.
- Indent/align `.prm` and `.pem` files.
- Delete dummy `[something]` section from `.prm` and `.pem` files.
Mental note:
MSVC `.sln` files seem to accept spaces for indentation and also support
LF line-endings. I cannot test this and I don't know what's more
convenient when updating them, so left them as-is, with specific
exclusions.
Closes#14031
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
