The required low-level logic was already available as part of
`libssh2` (via `LIBSSH2_FLAG_COMPRESS` `libssh2_session_flag()`[1]
option.)
This patch adds the new `libcurl` option `CURLOPT_SSH_COMPRESSION`
(boolean) and the new `curl` command-line option `--compressed-ssh`
to request this `libssh2` feature. To have compression enabled, it
is required that the SSH server supports a (zlib) compatible
compression method and that `libssh2` was built with `zlib` support
enabled.

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/1735
Update the progress timers `t_nslookup`, `t_connect`, `t_appconnect`,
`t_pretransfer`, and `t_starttransfer` to track the total times for
these activities when a redirect is followed. Previously, only the times
for the most recent request would be tracked.
Related changes:
- Rename `Curl_pgrsResetTimesSizes` to `Curl_pgrsResetTransferSizes`
now that the function only resets transfer sizes and no longer
modifies any of the progress timers.
- Add a bool to the `Progress` struct that is used to prevent
double-counting `t_starttransfer` times.
Added test case 1399.

... to make all libcurl internals able to use the same data types for
the struct members. The timeval struct differs subtly on several
platforms so it makes it cumbersome to use everywhere.

Add a new type of callback to Curl_handler which performs checks on
the connection. Alter RTSP so that it uses this callback to do its
own check on connection health.
If libcurl was built with GSS-API support, it unconditionally advertised
GSS-API authentication while connecting to a SOCKS5 proxy. This caused
problems in environments with improperly configured Kerberos: a stock
libcurl failed to connect, despite libcurl built without GSS-API
connected fine using username and password.
This commit introduces the CURLOPT_SOCKS5_AUTH option to control the
allowed methods for SOCKS5 authentication at run time.
Note that a new option was preferred over reusing CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH
for compatibility reasons because the set of authentication methods
allowed by default was different for HTTP and SOCKS5 proxies.

This gives us accurate precision and it allows us to avoid storing "no
time" for systems with too low timer resolution as we then bump the time
up to 1 microsecond. Should fix test 573 on windows.
Remove the now unused curlx_tvdiff_secs() function.

Also, Curl_expire_done() can now mark an expire timeout as done so that

The data->req.uploadbuf struct member served no good purpose, instead we
use ->state.uploadbuffer directly. It makes it clearer in the code which
buffer that's being used.
Removed the 'SingleRequest *' argument from the readwrite_upload() proto
as it can be derived from the Curl_easy struct. Also made the code in
the readwrite_upload() function use the 'k->' shortcut to all references
to struct fields in 'data->req', which previously was made with a mix of
both.
- Track when the cached encrypted data contains only a partial record
that can't be decrypted without more data (SEC_E_INCOMPLETE_MESSAGE).
- Change Curl_schannel_data_pending to return false in such a case.
Other SSL libraries have pending data functions that behave similarly.

The 'list element' struct now has to be within the data that is being
added to the list. Removes 16.6% (tiny) mallocs from a simple HTTP
transfer. (96 => 80)
Also removed return codes since the llist functions can't fail now.
Test 1300 updated accordingly.

When receiving chunked encoded data with trailers, and the write

Replace use of fixed macro BUFSIZE to define the size of the receive
buffer. Reappropriate CURLOPT_BUFFERSIZE to include enlarging receive
buffer size. Upon setting, resize buffer if larger than the current
default size up to a MAX_BUFSIZE (512KB). This can benefit protocols
like SFTP.

In addition to unix domain sockets, Linux also supports an
abstract namespace which is independent of the filesystem.
In order to support it, add new CURLOPT_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET
option which uses the same storage as CURLOPT_UNIX_SOCKET_PATH
internally, along with a flag to specify abstract socket.
On non-supporting platforms, the abstract address will be
interpreted as an empty string and fail gracefully.
Also add new --abstract-unix-socket tool parameter.

CURLOPT_SOCKS_PROXY -> CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY
Added the corresponding --preroxy command line option. Sets a SOCKS
proxy to connect to _before_ connecting to a HTTP(S) proxy.
Adds access to the effectively used protocol/scheme to both libcurl and
curl, both in string and numeric (CURLPROTO_*) form.
Note that the string form will be uppercase, as it is just the internal
string.
As these strings are declared internally as const, and all other strings
returned by curl_easy_getinfo() are de-facto const as well, string
handling in getinfo.c got const-ified.
Closes#1137
* 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.
Visual C++ now complains about implicitly casting time_t (64-bit) to

- Call Curl_initinfo on init and duphandle.
Prior to this change the statistical and informational variables were

correct default value for almost all info variables, there is one where
it isn't (filetime initializes to -1).

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/904
Speed limits (from CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE &
CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE) were applied simply by comparing limits
with the cumulative average speed of the entire transfer; While this
might work at times with good/constant connections, in other cases it
can result to the limits simply being "ignored" for more than "short
bursts" (as told in man page).
Consider a download that goes on much slower than the limit for some
time (because bandwidth is used elsewhere, server is slow, whatever the
reason), then once things get better, curl would simply ignore the limit
up until the average speed (since the beginning of the transfer) reached
the limit. This could prove the limit useless to effectively avoid
using the entire bandwidth (at least for quite some time).
So instead, we now use a "moving starting point" as reference, and every
time at least as much as the limit as been transferred, we can reset
this starting point to the current position. This gets a good limiting
effect that applies to the "current speed" with instant reactivity (in
case of sudden speed burst).
Closes#971
