Fixed the ability to use the current log-in credentials with DIGEST-MD5.
I had previously disabled this functionality in commit 607883f13c as I
couldn't get this to work under Windows 8, however, from testing HTTP
Digest authentication through Windows SSPI and then further testing of
this code I have found it works in Windows 7.
Some further investigation is required to see what the differences are
between Windows 7 and 8, but for now enable this functionality as the
code will return an error when AcquireCredentialsHandle() fails.
Option --pinnedpubkey takes a path to a public key in DER format and
only connect if it matches (currently only implemented with OpenSSL).
Provides CURLOPT_PINNEDPUBLICKEY for curl_easy_setopt().
Extract a public RSA key from a website like so:
openssl s_client -connect google.com:443 2>&1 < /dev/null | \
sed -n '/-----BEGIN/,/-----END/p' | openssl x509 -noout -pubkey \
| openssl rsa -pubin -outform DER > google.com.der
For private keys, use the first match from: user-specified key file
(if provided), ~/.ssh/id_rsa, ~/.ssh/id_dsa, ./id_rsa, ./id_dsa
Note that the previous code only looked for id_dsa files. id_rsa is
now generally preferred, as it supports larger key sizes.
For public keys, use the user-specified key file, if provided.
Otherwise, try to extract the public key from the private key file.
This means that passing --pubkey is typically no longer required,
and makes the key-handling behavior more like OpenSSH.
And clarify for curl that --proxy-header now must be used for headers
that are meant for a proxy, and they will not be included if the request
is not for a proxy.
Added initial support for --next/-: which will be used to replace the
rather confusing : command line operation what was used for the URL
specific options prototype.
when using --http2 one can now selectively disable NPN or ALPN with
--no-alpn and --no-npn. for now honored with NSS only.
TODO: honor this option with GnuTLS and OpenSSL
Otherwise a NOOP operation would be performed which a) only returns a
single line response and not a multiline response where -I needs to be
used, and b) provides an inconsistent user experience compared to that
of the POP3 and IMAP protocols.
The option '--bearer' might be slightly ambiguous in name. It doesn't
create any conflict that I am aware of at the moment, however, OAUTH v2
is not the only authentication mechanism which uses "bearer" tokens.

Added missing information, from curl 7.31.0, regarding the use of the
optional login options that may be specified as part of --user.
For example:
--user 'user:password;auth=NTLM' in IMAP, POP3 and SMTP protocols.
Added the ability to use an XOAUTH2 bearer token [RFC6750] with POP3 for
authentication using RFC6749 "OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework".
The bearer token is expected to be valid for the user specified in
conn->user. If CURLOPT_XOAUTH2_BEARER is defined and the connection has
an advertised auth mechanism of "XOAUTH2", the user and access token are
formatted as a base64 encoded string and sent to the server as
"AUTH XOAUTH2 <bearer token>".
Implement wrappers around strtod to convert the user argument to a
double with sane error checking. Use this to allow --max-time and
--connect-timeout to accept decimal values instead of strictly integers.
The manpage is updated to make mention of this feature and,
additionally, forewarn that the actual timeout of the operation can
vary in its precision (particularly as the value increases in its
decimal precision).
Users using the Secure Transport (darwinssl) back-end can now use a
certificate and private key to authenticate with a site using TLS. Because
Apple's security system is based around the keychain and does not have any
non-public function to create a SecIdentityRef data structure from data
loaded outside of the Keychain, the certificate and private key have to be
loaded into the Keychain first (using the certtool command line tool or
the Security framework's C API) before we can find it and use it.
- document the double-quote and backslash need be escaped if quoting.
- libcurl formdata escape double-quote in filename by backslash.
- curl formparse can parse filename both contains '"' and ',' or ';'.
- curl now can uploading file with ',' or ';' in filename.
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1171
Documented that --include will be ignored if both --metalink
and --include are specified.
Also documented that a Metalink file in the local file system
cannot be used if FILE protocol is disabled.
By modifying the parameter list for ourWriteOut() and passing the
OutStruct that collects data in tool_operate, we get access to the
remote name that we're writing to. Shell scripters should find this
useful when used in conjuntion with the --remote-header-name option.
Original wording could lead users in thinking it tries to
somehow parse the filename for a date expression (like
news_2012_03_05.html). It never mentions that it actually
reads the mtime of the file in filesystem.
This new option tells curl to not work around a security flaw in the
SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocols. It uses the new libcurl option
CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS with the CURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST bit set.
Use the new library CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPALIVE rather than disabling this via
the sockopt callback. If --keepalive-time is used, apply the value to
CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE and CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL.
As is pointed out in this bug report, there can indeed be situation
where --stderr has a point even when the "real" stderr can be
redirected. Remove the superfluous and wrong comment.

Document the possibility of providing multiple values using the ":"
separator, and the fact that the default value will be ignored if the
option is used.
