Since curl's own memory debugging system redefines free() calls to track
and fiddle with memory, it cannot be used on memory allocated by 3rd
party libraries.
Third party libraries SHOULD NOT require free() to release allocated
resources for this reason - and libs can use separate healp allocators
on some systems (like Windows) so free() doesn't necessarily work
anyway.

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

... so that a function can first use MIMEPOST and then set it to NULL to
reset it back to a blank POST.
Added test 584 to verify the fix.

... instead of at end of the DO state. This makes the timer more
accurate for the protocols that use the DOING state (such as FTP), and
simplifies how the function (now called init_perform) is called.
The timer will then include the entire procedure up to PERFORM -
including all instructions for getting the transfer started.
Closes#6454
- During the end-of-headers response phase do not mark the tunnel
complete unless the response body was completely parsed/ignored.
Prior to this change if the entirety of a CONNECT response with chunked
encoding was not received by the time the final header was parsed then
the connection would be marked done prematurely, before all the chunked
data could be read in and ignored (since this is what we do with any
CONNECT response body) and the connection could not be used.

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/6432
When doing a request with a request body expecting a 401/407 back, that
initial request is sent with a zero content-length. Test 177 and more.
Closes#6424
... so that Retry-After and other meta-content can still be used.
Added 1634 to verify. Adjusted test 194 and 281 since --fail now also
includes the header-terminating CRLF in the output before it exits.
Fixes#6408Closes#6409
... to make build tools/valgrind warn if no curl_global_cleanup is
called.
This is conditionally only done for debug builds with the env variable
CURL_GLOBAL_INIT set.
Closes#6410
... and not in the connection setup, as for multiplexed transfers the
connection setup might be skipped and then the transfer would end up
without the set user-agent!
