- Implement new option CURLSSLOPT_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT and
--ssl-revoke-best-effort to allow a "best effort" revocation check.
A best effort revocation check ignores errors that the revocation check
was unable to take place. The reasoning is described in detail below and
discussed further in the PR.
---
When running e.g. with Fiddler, the schannel backend fails with an
unhelpful error message:
Unknown error (0x80092012) - The revocation function was unable
to check revocation for the certificate.
Sadly, many enterprise users who are stuck behind MITM proxies suffer
the very same problem.
This has been discussed in plenty of issues:
https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/3727,
https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/264, for example.
In the latter, a Microsoft Edge developer even made the case that the
common behavior is to ignore issues when a certificate has no recorded
distribution point for revocation lists, or when the server is offline.
This is also known as "best effort" strategy and addresses the Fiddler
issue.
Unfortunately, this strategy was not chosen as the default for schannel
(and is therefore a backend-specific behavior: OpenSSL seems to happily
ignore the offline servers and missing distribution points).
To maintain backward-compatibility, we therefore add a new flag
(`CURLSSLOPT_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT`) and a new option
(`--ssl-revoke-best-effort`) to select the new behavior.
Due to the many related issues Git for Windows and GitHub Desktop, the
plan is to make this behavior the default in these software packages.
The test 2070 was added to verify this behavior, adapted from 310.

- If an easy handle is owned by a multi different from the one specified
then return CURLM_BAD_EASY_HANDLE.
Prior to this change I assume user error could cause corruption.

Makes curl_easy_getinfo() of "variable" numerical content instead return
the number set in the env variable `CURL_TIME`.
Makes curl_version() of "variable" textual content. This guarantees a
stable version string which can be tested against. Environment variable
`CURL_VERSION` defines the content.

This commit adds support to generate JSON via the writeout feature:
-w "%{json}"
It leverages the existing infrastructure as much as possible. Thus,
generating the JSON on STDERR is possible by:
-w "%{stderr}%{json}"
This implements a variant of
https://github.com/curl/curl/wiki/JSON#--write-out-json.
Closes#4870
The test uses SRP to "a server not supporting it" but modern stunnel
versions will silently accept it and remain happy. The test is therefore
faulty.
I haven't figured out how to make stunnel explicitly reject SRP-using
connects.

Trying to return early from the function if no new transfers were added
would break the "morep" argument and cause issues. This could lead to
zero content "transfers" (within quotes since they would never be
started) when parallel-max was reduced.

When libcurl retries a connection due to it being "seemingly dead" or by
REFUSED_STREAM, it will now only do it up five times before giving up,
to avoid never-ending loops.

Make sure each separate index in connn->tempaddr[] is used for a fixed
family (and only that family) during the connection process.
If family one takes a long time and family two fails immediately, the
previous logic could misbehave and retry the same family two address
repeatedly.

Users of the SMB tests will have to install impacket manually.
Reasoning: our in-tree version of impacket was quite outdated
and only compatible with Python 2 which is already end-of-life.
Upgrading to Python 3 and a compatible impacket version would
require to import additional Python-only and CPython-extension
dependencies. This would have hindered portability enormously.
Closes#5094
- Ignore CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN errors returned by c-ares functions in
curl_easy_duphandle.
Prior to this change if c-ares was used as the resolver backend and
either it was too old or libcurl was built without IPv6 support then
some of our resolver functions could return CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN to
curl_easy_duphandle causing it to fail.
Caused by c8f086b which shipped in 7.69.1.

In bmake, if the directory is changed (with cd or anything else), bmake
won't return to the "root directory" on the next command (in the same
