Olivier Brunel 4b86113f5e speed caps: not based on average speeds anymore
Speed limits (from CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE &
CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE) were applied simply by comparing limits
with the cumulative average speed of the entire transfer; While this
might work at times with good/constant connections, in other cases it
can result to the limits simply being "ignored" for more than "short
bursts" (as told in man page).

Consider a download that goes on much slower than the limit for some
time (because bandwidth is used elsewhere, server is slow, whatever the
reason), then once things get better, curl would simply ignore the limit
up until the average speed (since the beginning of the transfer) reached
the limit.  This could prove the limit useless to effectively avoid
using the entire bandwidth (at least for quite some time).

So instead, we now use a "moving starting point" as reference, and every
time at least as much as the limit as been transferred, we can reset
this starting point to the current position. This gets a good limiting
effect that applies to the "current speed" with instant reactivity (in
case of sudden speed burst).

Closes #971

Daniel Stenberg 3533def3d5 http2: make sure stream errors don't needlessly close the connection
With HTTP/2 each transfer is made in an indivial logical stream over the
connection, making most previous errors that caused the connection to get
forced-closed now instead just kill the stream and not the connection.

Daniel Stenberg 4732ca5724 CURLOPT_TCP_NODELAY: now enabled by default
After a few wasted hours hunting down the reason for slowness during a
TLS handshake that turned out to be because of TCP_NODELAY not being
set, I think we have enough motivation to toggle the default for this
option. We now enable TCP_NODELAY by default and allow applications to
switch it off.

This also makes --tcp-nodelay unnecessary, but --no-tcp-nodelay can be
used to disable it.

Thanks-to: Tim Rühsen

Jay Satiro f77dfbc5fb CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS.3: Clarify what happens when set empty
When CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS is set to an empty string libcurl will send a
zero-byte POST. Prior to this change it was documented as sending data
from the read callback.

This also changes the wording of what happens when empty or NULL so that
it's hopefully easier to understand for people whose primary language
isn't English.
