This is a new document to consolidate our thread safety information from
several documents (curl-www:features, libcurl.3, libcurl-tutorial.3).
Each document's section on multi-threading will now point to this one.
Currently, libcurl rejects responses with "Content-Encoding: compress"
when CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING is set to "". I think that libcurl should
treat the Content-Encoding "compress" the same as other
Content-Encodings that it does not support, e.g. "bzip2". That means
just ignoring it.
MSVC 12 complains:
lib\vtls\openssl.c(1554): warning C4701: potentially uninitialized local
variable 'verstr' used It's a false positive, but as it's normally not,
I have enabled warning-as-error for that warning.
This option disables any attempts in configure to create dependency on
stuff requiring linking to librt.so and libpthread.so, in this case this
means clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &mt).
We were in need to build curl which doesn't link libpthread.so to avoid
the following bug:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16628.
New tool option --ssl-no-revoke.
New value CURLSSLOPT_NO_REVOKE for CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS.
Currently this option applies only to WinSSL where we have automatic
certificate revocation checking by default. According to the
ssl-compared chart there are other backends that have automatic checking
(NSS, wolfSSL and DarwinSSL) so we could possibly accommodate them at
some later point.

Static analysis indicated that my commit 9008f3d564 ("ntlm_wb: Fix
hard-coded limit on NTLM auth packet size") introduced a potential
memory leak on an error path, because we forget to free the buffer
before returning an error.
Fix this.
Although actually, it never happens in practice because we never *get*
here with state == NTLMSTATE_TYPE1. The state is always zero. That
might want cleaning up in a separate patch.

This prevents valgrind from reporting possibly lost memory that NSPR
uses for file descriptor cache and other globally allocated internal
data structures.

setup-vms.h: More symbols for SHA256, hacks for older VAX
openssl.h: Use OpenSSL OPENSSL_NO_SHA256 macro to allow building on VAX.
openssl.c: Use OpenSSL version checks and OPENSSL_NO_SHA256 macro to
allow building on VAX and 64 bit VMS.
setup-vms.h: Symbol case fixups submitted by Michael Steve
build_gnv_curl_pcsi_desc.com: VSI aka as VMS Software, is now the
supplier of new versions of VMS. The install kit needs to accept
VSI as a producer.
Since we do prefix match using given header by application code
against header name pair in format "NAME:VALUE", and VALUE part can
contain ":", we have to careful about existence of ":" in header
parameter. ":" should be allowed to match HTTP/2 pseudo-header field,
and other use of ":" in header must be treated as error, and
curl_pushheader_byname should return NULL. This commit implements
this behaviour.
