The PROT_* set of internal defines for the protocols is no longer
used. We now use the same bits internally as we have defined in the
public header using the CURLPROTO_ prefix. This is for simplicity and
because the PROT_* prefix was already used duplicated internally for a
set of KRB4 values.
The PROTOPT_* defines were moved up to just below the struct definition
within which they are used.
The protocol handler struct got a 'flags' field for special information
and characteristics of the given protocol.
This now enables us to move away central protocol information such as
CLOSEACTION and DUALCHANNEL from single defines in a central place, out
to each protocol's definition. It also made us stop abusing the protocol
field for other info than the protocol, and we could start cleaning up
other protocol-specific things by adding flags bits to set in the
handler struct.
The "protocol" field connectdata struct was removed as well and the code
now refers directly to the conn->handler->protocol field instead. To
make things work properly, the code now always store a conn->given
pointer that points out the original handler struct so that the code can
learn details from the original protocol even if conn->handler is
modified along the way - for example when switching to go over a HTTP
proxy.
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.
If you pass a URL to pop3 that does not contain a message ID as
part of the URL, it will currently ask for 'INBOX' which just
causes the pop3 server to return an error.
The change makes libcurl treat en empty message ID as a request
for LIST (list of pop3 message IDs). User's code could then
parse this and download individual messages as desired.
