It helps to prevent a hangup with some FTP servers in case idle session
timeout has exceeded. But it may be useful also for other protocols
that send any quit message on disconnect. Currently used by FTP, POP3,
IMAP and SMTP.
When looping in this function and checking for the timeout being
expired, it was not updating the reference time when calculating the
timediff since previous round which made it think each subsequent loop
to have taken longer than it actually did.
I also modified the function to use the generic Curl_timeleft() function
instead of the custom logic.

Ensure that spurious results from system's getaddrinfo() ares not propagated
by Curl_getaddrinfo_ex() into the library.
Also ensure that the ai_addrlen member of Curl_getaddrinfo_ex()'s output linked
list of Curl_addrinfo structures has appropriate family-specific address size.
On Windows, translate WSAGetLastError() to errno values as GNU
TLS does it internally, too. This is necessary because send() and
recv() on Windows don't set errno when they fail but GNU TLS
expects a proper errno value.

Temporarily, When cross-compiling with gcc 3.0 or later, enable strict aliasing
rules and warnings. Given that cross-compiled targets autobuilds do not run the
If --librtmp was specified but pkg-config could not find the librtmp
file, we would have undefined symbols when linking curl.
We prevent this error by disabling this case as suggested on the mailing
list.
When no timeout is set, we call the socket_ready function with a timeout
value of 0 during handshake, which makes it loop too much/fast in this
function. It also made this function return CURLE_OPERATION_TIMEDOUT
wrongly on a slow handshake.
However, the particular bug report that highlighted this problem is not
solved by this fix, as this fix only makes the more proper error get
reported instead.
