Also removed a TODO suggesting caching the precheck results. Tests
showed this would save about 0.1 sec on the total test run time on a
relatively modern system, an unnoticeable gain at the cost of longer and
more complicated code. There would also be a danger that a cached test
result would be inappropriately returned, such as when other test
dependencies (like environment variables) are different or when the
precheck causes side effects (like filesystem changes).
The HTTP/2 tests brought with commit bf05606ef1 were using the internal
name 'http2' for the HTTP/2 server, while in fact that name was already
used for the second instance of the HTTP server. This made tests using
the second instance (like test 2050) fail after a HTTP/2 test had run.
The server is now known as HTTP/2 internally and within the <server>
section in test cases. 1700, 1701 and 1702 were updated accordingly.
It requires that 'nghttpx' is in the PATH, and it will run the tests
using nghttpx as a front-end proxy in front of the standard HTTP/1 test
server. This uses HTTP/2 over plain TCP.
If you like me have nghttpx installed in a custom path, you can run test 1700
like this:
$ PATH=$PATH:$HOME/build-nghttp2/bin/ ./runtests.pl 1700
- no point in repeating curl features that is already listed as features
from the curl -V output
- remove the port numbers/unix domain path from the output unless
verbose is used, as that is rarely interesting to users.
For consistency, as we seem to have a bit of a mixed bag, changed all
instances of ipv4 and ipv6 in comments and documentations to use the
correct case.
The variable `$ipvnum` can now contain "unix" besides the integers 4
and 6 since the variable. Functions which receive this parameter
have their `$port` parameter renamed to `$port_or_path` to support a
path to the UNIX domain socket (as a "port" is only meaningful for TCP).

Commit curl-7_23_1-143-g8218064 changed the parameter of
responsive_http_server to accept types other than IPv6 (converting
from a boolean to a string), but only considered the lower-case "ipv6"
and not the "IPv6" variant. This caused all servers to start in IPv4
mode instead.
This patch converts the remaining cases to "ipv6". While not strictly
necessary for the run*server variants, these got also converted for
consistency and to prevent future errors.
