Add a bitset `dirty` to the multi handle. The presence of a transfer int
he "dirty" set means: this transfer has something to do ASAP.
"dirty" is set by multiplexing protocols like HTTP/2 and 3 when
encountering response data for another transfer than the current one.
"dirty" is set by protocols that want to be called.
Implementation:
* just an additional `uint_bset` in the multi handle
* `Curl_multi_mark_dirty()` to add a transfer to the dirty set.
* `multi_runsingle()` clears the dirty bit of the transfer at
start. Without new dirty marks, this empties the set after
al dirty transfers have been run.
* `multi_timeout()` immediately gives the current time and
timeout_ms == 0 when dirty transfers are present.
* multi_event: marks all transfers tracked for a socket as dirty.
Then marks all expired transfers as dirty. Then it runs
all dirty transfers.
With this mechanism:
* Most uses of `EXPIRE_RUN_NOW` are replaced by `Curl_multi_mark_dirty()`
* `Curl_multi_mark_dirty()` is cheaper than querying if a transfer is
already dirty or set for timeout. There is no need to check, just do it.
* `data->state.select_bits` is eliminated. We need no longer to
simulate a poll event to make a transfer run.

When multi creates the pollset of a transfer, it checks now if
a connection (FIRST/SECONDARY) socket waits on POLLIN and has input data
pending in filters (relevant to OpenSSL's new read ahead). If so, it
triggers a timeout on the transfer via EXPIRE_RUN_NOW.
This fixes sporadic stalls in test 988 when running event based.

Closes#17475
The `struct Curl_dns_entry *` used to established a connection
do not have the connection's lifetime, but the transfer's lifetime
(of the transfer that initiates the connect).
`Curl_dns_entry *` is reference counted with the "dns cache". That
cache might be owned by the multi or the transfer's share. In the
share, the reference count needs updating under lock.
Therefore, the dns entry can only be kept *and* released using the
same transfer it was initially looked up from. But a connection is
often discarded using another transfer.
So far, the problem of this has been avoided in clearing the connection's
dns entries in the "multi_don()" handling. So, connections had NULL
dns entries after the initial transfers and its connect had been handled.
Keeping the dns entries in data->state seems therefore a better choice.
Also: remove the `struct Curl_dns_entry *` from the connect filters
contexts. Use `data->state.dns` every time instead and fail correctly
when not present and needed.
Closes#17383
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.

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.
Closes#16761
Adds a "meta_hash" to each easy handle for keeping special data during
operations. All meta data set needs to add its destructor callback, so
that meta data gets destroyed properly when the easy handle is cleaned
up or reset.
Add data->master_mid for "sub" transfers that belong to a "master" easy
handle. When a "sub" transfer is done, the corresponding "master" can
add a callback to be invoked. Used in DoH name resolution.
DoH: use easy meta hash to add internal structs for DoH name resolution.
One in each in each probe easy handle. When probes are done, response
data is copied from the probe to the initiating easy.
This allows DoH using transfers and their probes to be cleaned up in any
sequence correctly.
Fold DoH cleanup into the Curl_async_shutdown() and Curl_async_destroy()
functions.
Closes#16384
"asyn" is the internal name under which both c-ares and threaded
resolver operate. Make the naming more consistent. Implement the c-ares
resolver in `asyn-ares.*` and the threaded resolver in `asyn-thrdd.*`.
The common functions are in `asyn-base.c`.
When `CURLRES_ASYNCH` is defined, either of the two is used and
`data->state.async` exists. Members of that struct vary for the selected
implementation, but have the fields `hostname`, `port` and `ip_version`
always present. This are populated when the async resolving starts and
eliminate the need to pass them again when checking on the status and
processing the results of the resolving.
Add a `Curl_resolv_blocking()` to `hostip.h` that relieves FTP and SOCKS
from having to repeat the same code.
`Curl_resolv_check()` remains the function to check for status of
ongoing resolving. Now it also performs internally the check if the
needed DNS entry exists in the dnscache and if so, aborts the asnyc
operation. (libcurl right now does not check for duplicate resolve
attempts. an area for future improvements).
The number of functions in `asyn.h` has been reduced. There were subtle
difference in "cancel()" and "kill()" calls, both replaced by
`Curl_async_shutdown()` now. This changes behaviour for threaded
resolver insofar as the resolving thread is now always joined unless
`data->set.quick_exit` is set. Before this was only done on some code
paths. A future improvement would be a thread pool that keeps a limit
and also could handle joins more gracefully.
DoH, not previously tagged under "asny", has its struct `doh_probes` now
also in `data->state.async`, moved there from `data->req` because it
makes more sense. Further integration of DoH underneath the "asyn"
umbrella seems like a good idea.
Closes#16963
Allocate the data shared between a transfer and an aync resolver thread

Closes#16941
Enable eventfd code consistently when both `HAVE_EVENTFD` and
`HAVE_SYS_EVENTFD_H` macros are defined.
Before this patch `HAVE_EVENTFD` guarded it alone, though the code
also required the header, which was guarded by `HAVE_SYS_EVENTFD_H`.
These should normally be detected in pairs. When they aren't, omit using
`eventfd()` to avoid calling it without a known matching header.
If this disables valid cases (e.g. some system declares this function
via a different header), feature detection and the code may be extended
for those cases. If these are known to come in pairs, always, another
option is detect them both at build stage, and forward a single macro
to C.

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_threads.c
- lib/idn.c
- lib/vtls/gtls.c

The protocol handlers' done() function would previous get called
unconditionally in multi_done(), no matter how far the easy handle's
state machine has transitioned.
This caused problems in IMAP which in imap_connect() initializes things
that the imap_done() function assumes has occured. I think that seems
like a correct assumption and we should rather make sure that the done()
function is only called if we have reached the PROTOCONNECT state.

Further testing with timeouts in event based processing revealed that
our current shutdown handling in the connection pool was not clear
enough. Graceful shutdowns can only happen inside a multi handle and it
was confusing to track in the code which situation actually applies. It
seems better to split the shutdown handling off and have that code
always be part of a multi handle.
Add `cshutdn.[ch]` with its own struct to maintain connections being
shut down. A `cshutdn` always belongs to a multi handle and uses that
for socket/timeout monitoring.
The `cpool`, which can be part of a multi or share, either passes
connections to a `cshutdn` or terminates them with a one-time, best
effort.
Add an `admin` easy handle to each multi and share. This is used to
perform all maintenance operations where no "real" easy handle is
available. This solves the problem that the multi admin handle requires
some additional initialisation (e.g. timeout list).
The share needs its admin handle as it is often cleaned up when no other
transfer or multi handle exists any more. But we need a `data` in almost
every call.
Fix file:// handling of errors when adding a new connection to the pool.
Changes in `curl` itself:
- for parallel transfers, do not set a connection pool in the share,
rely on the multi's connection pool instead. While not a requirement
for the new `cshutdn` to work, this is
a) helpful in testing to trigger graceful shutdowns
b) a broader code coverage of libcurl via the curl tool
- on test_event with uv, cleanup the multi handle before returning from
parallel_event(). The uv struct is on the stack, cleanup of the multi
later will crash when it tries to register sockets. This is a "eat
your own dogfood" related fix.

Add a 'wanted' major HTTP version bitmask next to the 'allowed' bitmask

Translate the `data->set.httpwant` which is one of the consts from the
public API (CURL_HTTP_VERSION_*) into a major version mask plus
additional flags for internal handling.
`Curl_http_neg_init()` does the translation and flags setting in http.c,
using new internal consts CURL_HTTP_V1x, CURL_HTTP_V2x and CURL_HTTP_V3x
for the major versions. The flags are
- only_10: when the application explicity asked fro HTTP/1.0
- h2_upgrade: when the application asks for upgrading 1.1 to 2.
- h2_prior_knowledge: when directly talking h2 without ALPN
- accept_09: when a HTTP/0.9 response is acceptable.
The Alt-Svc and HTTPS RR redirections from one ALPN to another obey the
allowed major versions. If a transfer has only h3 enabled, Alt-Svc
redirection to h2 is ignored.
This is the current implementation. It can be debated if Alt-Svc should
be able to override the allowed major versions. Added test_12_06 to
verify the current restriction.

- 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.

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