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.

We currently use both spellings the british "behaviour" and the american
"behavior". However "behavior" is more used in the project so I think
it's worth dropping the british name.
Closes#6395
Previously, options set explicitly through command line options could be
overridden by the configuration files parsed automatically when
ssh_connect() was called.
By calling ssh_options_parse_config() explicitly, the configuration
files are parsed before setting the options, avoiding the options
override. Once the configuration files are parsed, the automatic
configuration parsing is not executed.

From libssh 0.9.0, ssh_key_type() returns different key types for ECDSA
keys depending on the curve.

Previously, it was not possible to get a known hosts file entry due to
the lack of an API. ssh_session_get_known_hosts_entry(), introduced in
libssh-0.9.0, allows libcurl to obtain such information and behave the
same as when compiled with libssh2.
This also tries to avoid the usage of deprecated functions when the
replacements are available. The behaviour will not change if versions
older than libssh-0.8.0 are used.

- Disable warning C4127 "conditional expression is constant" globally
in curl_setup.h for when building with Microsoft's compiler.
This mainly affects building with the Visual Studio project files found
in the projects dir.
Prior to this change the cmake and winbuild build systems already
disabled 4127 globally for when building with Microsoft's compiler.
Also, 4127 was already disabled for all build systems in the limited
circumstance of the WHILE_FALSE macro which disabled the warning
specifically for while(0). This commit removes the WHILE_FALSE macro and
all other cruft in favor of disabling globally in curl_setup.
Background:
We have various macros that cause 0 or 1 to be evaluated, which would
cause warning C4127 in Visual Studio. For example this causes it:
#define Curl_resolver_asynch() 1
Full behavior is not clearly defined and inconsistent across versions.
However it is documented that since VS 2015 Update 3 Microsoft has
addressed this somewhat but not entirely, not warning on while(true) for
example.
Prior to this change some C4127 warnings occurred when I built with
Visual Studio using the generated projects in the projects dir.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4658
The WHILE_FALSE construction is used to avoid compiler warnings in
macro constructions. This fixes a few instances where it was not
used in order to keep the code consistent.

The regexp looking for assignments within conditions was too greedy
and matched a too long string in the case of multiple conditionals
on the same line. This is basically only a problem in single line
macros, and the code which exemplified this was essentially:
do { if((x) != NULL) { x = NULL; } } while(0)
..where the final parenthesis of while(0) matched the regexp, and
the legal assignment in the block triggered the warning. Fix by
making the regexp less greedy by matching for the tell-tale signs
of the if statement ending.
Also remove the one occurrence where the warning was disabled due
to a construction like the above, where the warning didn't apply
when fixed.
