... in most cases instead of 'struct connectdata *' but in some cases in

- We mostly operate on transfers and not connections.
- We need the transfer handle to log, store data and more. Everything in
libcurl is driven by a transfer (the CURL * in the public API).
- This work clarifies and separates the transfers from the connections
better.
- We should avoid "conn->data". Since individual connections can be used
by many transfers when multiplexing, making sure that conn->data
points to the current and correct transfer at all times is difficult
and has been notoriously error-prone over the years. The goal is to
ultimately remove the conn->data pointer for this reason.

The function does not return the same value as snprintf() normally does,
so readers may be mislead into thinking the code works differently than
it actually does. A different function name makes this easier to detect.

In case a very small buffer was passed to the version function, it could
result in the buffer not being NULL-terminated since strncpy() doesn't
guarantee a terminator on an overflowed buffer. Rather than adding code
to terminate (and handle zero-sized buffers), move to using snprintf()
instead like all the other vtls backends.

- Treat CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_NONE the same as
CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_DEFAULT. Prior to this change NONE would mean use
the minimum version also as the maximum.
This is a follow-up to 6015cef which changed the behavior of setting
the SSL version so that the requested version would only be the minimum
and not the maximum. It appears it was (mostly) implemented in OpenSSL
but not other backends. In other words CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_0 used to
mean use just TLS v1.0 and now it means use TLS v1.0 *or later*.
- Fix CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_DEFAULT for OpenSSL.
Prior to this change CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_DEFAULT with OpenSSL was
erroneously treated as always TLS 1.3, and would cause an error if
OpenSSL was built without TLS 1.3 support.

There is information about the compiled-in SSL backends that is really
no concern of any code other than the SSL backend itself, such as which
function (if any) implements SHA-256 summing.
And there is information that is really interesting to the user, such as
the name, or the curl_sslbackend value.
Let's factor out the latter into a publicly visible struct. This
information will be used in the upcoming API to set the SSL backend
globally.

When building software for the masses, it is sometimes not possible to
decide for all users which SSL backend is appropriate.
Git for Windows, for example, uses cURL to perform clones, fetches and
pushes via HTTPS, and some users strongly prefer OpenSSL, while other
users really need to use Secure Channel because it offers
enterprise-ready tools to manage credentials via Windows' Credential
Store.
The current Git for Windows versions use the ugly work-around of
building libcurl once with OpenSSL support and once with Secure Channel
support, and switching out the binaries in the installer depending on
the user's choice.
Needless to say, this is a super ugly workaround that actually only
works in some cases: Git for Windows also comes in a portable form, and
in a form intended for third-party applications requiring Git
functionality, in which cases this "swap out libcurl-4.dll" simply is
not an option.
Therefore, the Git for Windows project has a vested interest in teaching
cURL to make the SSL backend a *runtime* option.
This patch makes that possible.
By running ./configure with multiple --with-<backend> options, cURL will
be built with multiple backends.
For the moment, the backend can be configured using the environment
variable CURL_SSL_BACKEND (valid values are e.g. "openssl" and
"schannel").

So far, all of the SSL backends' private data has been declared as
part of the ssl_connect_data struct, in one big #if .. #elif .. #endif
block.
This can only work as long as the SSL backend is a compile-time option,
something we want to change in the next commits.
Therefore, let's encapsulate the exact data needed by each SSL backend
into a private struct, and let's avoid bleeding any SSL backend-specific
information into urldata.h. This is also necessary to allow multiple SSL
backends to be compiled in at the same time, as e.g. OpenSSL's and
CyaSSL's headers cannot be included in the same .c file.
To avoid too many malloc() calls, we simply append the private structs
to the connectdata struct in allocate_conn().
This requires us to take extra care of alignment issues: struct fields
often need to be aligned on certain boundaries e.g. 32-bit values need to
be stored at addresses that divide evenly by 4 (= 32 bit / 8
bit-per-byte).
We do that by assuming that no SSL backend's private data contains any
fields that need to be aligned on boundaries larger than `long long`
(typically 64-bit) would need. Under this assumption, we simply add a
dummy field of type `long long` to the `struct connectdata` struct. This
field will never be accessed but acts as a placeholder for the four
instances of ssl_backend_data instead. the size of each ssl_backend_data
struct is stored in the SSL backend-specific metadata, to allow
allocate_conn() to know how much extra space to allocate, and how to
initialize the ssl[sockindex]->backend and proxy_ssl[sockindex]->backend
pointers.
This would appear to be a little complicated at first, but is really
necessary to encapsulate the private data of each SSL backend correctly.
And we need to encapsulate thusly if we ever want to allow selecting
CyaSSL and OpenSSL at runtime, as their headers cannot be included within
the same .c file (there are just too many conflicting definitions and
declarations for that).

At the moment, cURL's SSL backend needs to be configured at build time.
As such, it is totally okay for them to hard-code their backend-specific
data in the ssl_connect_data struct.
In preparation for making the SSL backend a runtime option, let's make
the access of said private data a bit more abstract so that it can be
adjusted later in an easy manner.

In the ongoing endeavor to abstract out all SSL backend-specific
functionality, this is the next step: Instead of hard-coding how the
different SSL backends access their internal data in getinfo.c, let's
implement backend-specific functions to do that task.
This will also allow for switching SSL backends as a runtime option.

These functions are all available via the Curl_ssl struct now, no need
to declare them separately anymore.
As the global declarations are removed, the corresponding function
definitions are marked as file-local. The only two exceptions here are
Curl_mbedtls_shutdown() and Curl_polarssl_shutdown(): only the
declarations were removed, there are no function definitions to mark
file-local.
Please note that Curl_nss_force_init() is *still* declared globally, as
the only SSL backend-specific function, because it was introduced
specifically for the use case where cURL was compiled with
`--without-ssl --with-nss`. For details, see f3b77e561 (http_ntlm: add
support for NSS, 2010-06-27).

The SHA-256 checksumming is also an SSL backend-specific function.
Let's include it in the struct declaring the functionality of SSL
backends.
In contrast to MD5, there is no fall-back code. To indicate this, the
respective entries are NULL for those backends that offer no support for
SHA-256 checksumming.

The MD5 summing is also an SSL backend-specific function. So let's
include it, offering the previous fall-back code as a separate function
now: Curl_none_md5sum(). To allow for that, the signature had to be
changed so that an error could be returned from the implementation
(Curl_none_md5sum() can run out of memory).

* HTTPS proxies:
An HTTPS proxy receives all transactions over an SSL/TLS connection.
Once a secure connection with the proxy is established, the user agent
uses the proxy as usual, including sending CONNECT requests to instruct
the proxy to establish a [usually secure] TCP tunnel with an origin
server. HTTPS proxies protect nearly all aspects of user-proxy
communications as opposed to HTTP proxies that receive all requests
(including CONNECT requests) in vulnerable clear text.
With HTTPS proxies, it is possible to have two concurrent _nested_
SSL/TLS sessions: the "outer" one between the user agent and the proxy
and the "inner" one between the user agent and the origin server
(through the proxy). This change adds supports for such nested sessions
as well.
A secure connection with a proxy requires its own set of the usual SSL
options (their actual descriptions differ and need polishing, see TODO):
--proxy-cacert FILE CA certificate to verify peer against
--proxy-capath DIR CA directory to verify peer against
--proxy-cert CERT[:PASSWD] Client certificate file and password
--proxy-cert-type TYPE Certificate file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-ciphers LIST SSL ciphers to use
--proxy-crlfile FILE Get a CRL list in PEM format from the file
--proxy-insecure Allow connections to proxies with bad certs
--proxy-key KEY Private key file name
--proxy-key-type TYPE Private key file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-pass PASS Pass phrase for the private key
--proxy-ssl-allow-beast Allow security flaw to improve interop
--proxy-sslv2 Use SSLv2
--proxy-sslv3 Use SSLv3
--proxy-tlsv1 Use TLSv1
--proxy-tlsuser USER TLS username
--proxy-tlspassword STRING TLS password
--proxy-tlsauthtype STRING TLS authentication type (default SRP)
All --proxy-foo options are independent from their --foo counterparts,
except --proxy-crlfile which defaults to --crlfile and --proxy-capath
which defaults to --capath.
Curl now also supports %{proxy_ssl_verify_result} --write-out variable,
similar to the existing %{ssl_verify_result} variable.
Supported backends: OpenSSL, GnuTLS, and NSS.
* A SOCKS proxy + HTTP/HTTPS proxy combination:
If both --socks* and --proxy options are given, Curl first connects to
the SOCKS proxy and then connects (through SOCKS) to the HTTP or HTTPS
proxy.
TODO: Update documentation for the new APIs and --proxy-* options.
Look for "Added in 7.XXX" marks.
- Fix GnuTLS code for CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_2 that broke when the
TLS 1.3 support was added in 6ad3add.
- Homogenize across code for all backends the error message when TLS 1.3
is not available to "<backend>: TLS 1.3 is not yet supported".
- Return an error when a user-specified ssl version is unrecognized.
---
Prior to this change our code for some of the backends used the
'default' label in the switch statement (ie ver unrecognized) for
ssl.version and treated it the same as CURL_SSLVERSION_DEFAULT.

Curl_select_ready() was the former API that was replaced with
Curl_select_check() a while back and the former arg setup was provided
with a define (in order to leave existing code unmodified).
Now we instead offer SOCKET_READABLE and SOCKET_WRITABLE for the most
common shortcuts where only one socket is checked. They're also more
visibly macros.
