All Windows APIs have been natively UTF-16 since Windows 2000 and the
non-Unicode variants are just wrappers around them. Only Windows 9x
doesn't understand Unicode without the UnicoWS DLL. As later Visual
Studio versions cannot target Windows 9x anyway, using the ANSI API
doesn't really have any benefit there.
This avoids issues like KNOWN_BUGS 6.5.

Starting with Visual Studio 2017 Update 9, Visual Studio doesn't like
the MinimalRebuild option anymore and warns:
cl : Command line warning D9035: option 'Gm' has been deprecated and
will be removed in a future release
The option can be safely removed so that the default is used.

The productname from Microsoft is "Schannel", but in infof/failf
reporting we use "schannel". This removes different versions.

The Visual Studio builds didn't use IPv6. Add it to all projects since
Visual Studio 2008, which is verified to build via AppVeyor.

- remove line ending spaces
- remove double/triple newlines at EOF
- fix a non-UTF-8 character
- cleanup a few indentations/line continuations
in manual examples

- Determine if perl is in the user's PATH by running perl.exe.
Prior to this change detection was done by checking the PATH for perl/
but that did not work in all cases (eg git install includes perl but
not in perl/ path).

Whilst the compiler parameter is mandatory, platform is optional as it
is automatically calculated by the :configure section.
This partially reverts commit 6d62d2c55d.
- Fix winbuild and the VS project generator to treat curl_ctype.{c,h} as
curlx files since they are required by both src and lib.
Follow-up to 4272a0b which added curl_ctype.
Visual Studio doesn't like LF line endings in solution files and always
converts them to CRLF when doing changes to the solution. Notably, this
affects the solutions in the release archive.

wolfSSL configure script relevant changes from 3.10 to 3.11:
- Async threading support added; disabled by default without async
crypto, which continues to be disabled by default.
wolfSSL configure script relevant changes from 3.11 to 3.11.1 (beta):
- TLS 1.3 beta support added; disabled by default.
For experimenting I put in a comment block the defines needed to enable
TLS 1.3 support (ie the equivalent of --enable-tls13).
wolfSSL configure script relevant changes from 3.9 to 3.10:
- DES3 no longer enabled by default
- Shamir no longer enabled by default
- Extended master secret enabled by default
- RSA and ECC timing protections enabled by default
For backwards compatibility I enabled DES3 and ECC shamir config options
(ie no change from 3.9), and the other changes are included.
