Supports HTTP/2 over clear TCP
- Optimize switching to HTTP/2 by removing calls to init and setup
before switching. Switching will eventually call setup and setup calls
init.
- Supports new version to “force” the use of HTTP/2 over clean TCP
- Add common line parameter “--http2-prior-knowledge” to the Curl
command line tool.
Renamed the header and source files for this module as they are HTTP
specific and as such, they should use the naming convention as other
HTTP authentication source files do - this revert commit 260ee6b7bf.
Note: We could also rename curl_ntlm_wb.[c|h], however, the Winbind
code needs separating from the HTTP protocol and migrating into the
vauth directory, thus adding support for Winbind to the SASL based
protocols such as IMAP, POP3 and SMTP.
At one point during the development of HTTP/2, the commit 133cdd29ea
introduced automatic decompression of Content-Encoding as that was what
the spec said then. Now however, HTTP/2 should work the same way as
HTTP/1 in this regard.

Closes#661
nghttp2 callback deals with TLS layer and therefore the header does not
need to be broken into chunks.

This commit adds trailer support in HTTP/2. In HTTP/1.1, chunked
encoding must be used to send trialer fields. HTTP/2 deprecated any
trandfer-encoding, including chunked. But trailer fields are now
always available.
Since trailer fields are relatively rare these days (gRPC uses them
extensively though), allocating buffer for trailer fields is done when
we detect that HEADERS frame containing trailer fields is started. We
use Curl_add_buffer_* functions to buffer all trailers, just like we
do for regular header fields. And then deliver them when stream is
closed. We have to be careful here so that all data are delivered to
upper layer before sending trailers to the application.
We can deliver trailer field one by one using NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE
mechanism, but current method is far more simple.
Another possibility is use chunked encoding internally for HTTP/2
traffic. I have not tested it, but it could add another overhead.
Closes#564
The push headers are freed after the push callback has been invoked,
meaning this code should only free the headers if the callback was never
invoked and thus the headers weren't freed at that time.

They tend to never get updated anyway so they're frequently inaccurate
and we never go back to revisit them anyway. We document issues to work
on properly in KNOWN_BUGS and TODO instead.
... and assign it from the set.fread_func_set pointer in the
Curl_init_CONNECT function. This A) avoids that we have code that
assigns fields in the 'set' struct (which we always knew was bad) and
more importantly B) it makes it impossibly to accidentally leave the
wrong value for when the handle is re-used etc.
Introducing a state-init functionality in multi.c, so that we can set a
specific function to get called when we enter a state. The
Curl_init_CONNECT is thus called when switching to the CONNECT state.

Return 0 instead of NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE if we can't locate the
SessionHandle. Apparently mod_h2 will sometimes send a frame for a
stream_id we're finished with.
Use nghttp2_session_get_stream_user_data and
nghttp2_session_set_stream_user_data to identify SessionHandles instead
of a hash.
Closes#372
Otherwise it would never be called for an HTTP/2 connection, which has
its own disconnect handler.
I spotted this while debugging <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1248389>
where the http_disconnect() handler was called on an FTP session handle
causing 'dnf' to crash. conn->data->req.protop of type (struct FTP *)
was reinterpreted as type (struct HTTP *) which resulted in SIGSEGV in
Curl_add_buffer_free() after printing the "Connection cache is full,
closing the oldest one." message.
A previously working version of libcurl started to crash after it was
recompiled with the HTTP/2 support despite the HTTP/2 protocol was not
actually used. This commit makes it work again although I suspect the
root cause (reinterpreting session handle data of incompatible protocol)
still has to be fixed. Otherwise the same will happen when mixing FTP
and HTTP/2 connections and exceeding the connection cache limit.

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.
With many easy handles using the same connection for multiplexing, it is
important we store and keep the transfer-oriented stuff in the
SessionHandle so that callbacks and callback data work fine even when
many easy handles share the same physical connection.
Error: CLANG_WARNING:
lib/http.c:173:16: warning: Value stored to 'http' during its initialization is never read
Error: COMPILER_WARNING:
lib/http.c: scope_hint: In function ‘http_disconnect’
lib/http.c:173:16: warning: unused variable ‘http’ [-Wunused-variable]
to allow code to act differently on the situation.
Also added some more info message for the connection re-use function to
make it clearer when connections are not re-used.
... from the connection struct. The stream one being the 'struct HTTP'
which is kept in the SessionHandle struct (easy handle).
lookup streams for incoming frames in the stream hash, hashing is based
on the stream id and we get the SessionHandle for the incoming stream
that way.
All the existing Curl_bundle* functions were only ever used from within
the conncache.c file, so I moved them over and made them static (and
removed the Curl_ prefix).
