The required low-level logic was already available as part of
`libssh2` (via `LIBSSH2_FLAG_COMPRESS` `libssh2_session_flag()`[1]
option.)
This patch adds the new `libcurl` option `CURLOPT_SSH_COMPRESSION`
(boolean) and the new `curl` command-line option `--compressed-ssh`
to request this `libssh2` feature. To have compression enabled, it
is required that the SSH server supports a (zlib) compatible
compression method and that `libssh2` was built with `zlib` support
enabled.

- Show the HTTPS-proxy options on CURLE_SSL_CACERT if libcurl was built
with HTTPS-proxy support.
Prior to this change those options were shown only if an HTTPS-proxy was
specified by --proxy, but that did not take into account environment
variables such as http_proxy, https_proxy, etc. Follow-up to e1187c4.

- Change CURLOPT_PROXY_CAPATH to return CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN if the option
is not supported, which is the same as what we already do for
CURLOPT_CAPATH.
- Change the curl tool to handle CURLOPT_PROXY_CAPATH error
CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN as a warning instead of as an error, which is the
same as what we already do for CURLOPT_CAPATH.
- Fix CAPATH docs to show that CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN is returned when the
respective CAPATH option is not supported by the SSL library.
Ref: https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/1257
When CURLE_SSL_CACERT occurs the tool shows a lengthy error message to
the user explaining possible solutions such as --cacert and --insecure.
This change appends to that message similar options --proxy-cacert and
--proxy-insecure when there's a specified HTTPS proxy.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/1258
In addition to unix domain sockets, Linux also supports an
abstract namespace which is independent of the filesystem.
In order to support it, add new CURLOPT_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET
option which uses the same storage as CURLOPT_UNIX_SOCKET_PATH
internally, along with a flag to specify abstract socket.
On non-supporting platforms, the abstract address will be
interpreted as an empty string and fail gracefully.
Also add new --abstract-unix-socket tool parameter.

CURLOPT_SOCKS_PROXY -> CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY
Added the corresponding --preroxy command line option. Sets a SOCKS
proxy to connect to _before_ connecting to a HTTP(S) proxy.
... the newly introduced CURLOPT_SOCKS_PROXY is special and should be
asked for specially. (Needs new code.)
Unified proxy type to a single variable in the config struct.
This was added as part of the SOCKS+HTTPS proxy merge but there's no
need to support this as we prefer to have the protocol specified as a
prefix instead.
* HTTPS proxies:
An HTTPS proxy receives all transactions over an SSL/TLS connection.
Once a secure connection with the proxy is established, the user agent
uses the proxy as usual, including sending CONNECT requests to instruct
the proxy to establish a [usually secure] TCP tunnel with an origin
server. HTTPS proxies protect nearly all aspects of user-proxy
communications as opposed to HTTP proxies that receive all requests
(including CONNECT requests) in vulnerable clear text.
With HTTPS proxies, it is possible to have two concurrent _nested_
SSL/TLS sessions: the "outer" one between the user agent and the proxy
and the "inner" one between the user agent and the origin server
(through the proxy). This change adds supports for such nested sessions
as well.
A secure connection with a proxy requires its own set of the usual SSL
options (their actual descriptions differ and need polishing, see TODO):
--proxy-cacert FILE CA certificate to verify peer against
--proxy-capath DIR CA directory to verify peer against
--proxy-cert CERT[:PASSWD] Client certificate file and password
--proxy-cert-type TYPE Certificate file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-ciphers LIST SSL ciphers to use
--proxy-crlfile FILE Get a CRL list in PEM format from the file
--proxy-insecure Allow connections to proxies with bad certs
--proxy-key KEY Private key file name
--proxy-key-type TYPE Private key file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-pass PASS Pass phrase for the private key
--proxy-ssl-allow-beast Allow security flaw to improve interop
--proxy-sslv2 Use SSLv2
--proxy-sslv3 Use SSLv3
--proxy-tlsv1 Use TLSv1
--proxy-tlsuser USER TLS username
--proxy-tlspassword STRING TLS password
--proxy-tlsauthtype STRING TLS authentication type (default SRP)
All --proxy-foo options are independent from their --foo counterparts,
except --proxy-crlfile which defaults to --crlfile and --proxy-capath
which defaults to --capath.
Curl now also supports %{proxy_ssl_verify_result} --write-out variable,
similar to the existing %{ssl_verify_result} variable.
Supported backends: OpenSSL, GnuTLS, and NSS.
* A SOCKS proxy + HTTP/HTTPS proxy combination:
If both --socks* and --proxy options are given, Curl first connects to
the SOCKS proxy and then connects (through SOCKS) to the HTTP or HTTPS
proxy.
TODO: Update documentation for the new APIs and --proxy-* options.
Look for "Added in 7.XXX" marks.
As they are after all part of the public API. Saves space and reduces
complexity. Remove the strcase defines from the curlx_ family.

... to make it less likely that we forget that the function actually
does case insentive compares. Also replaced several invokes of the
function with a plain strcmp when case sensitivity is not an issue (like
comparing with "-").
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.

- Move the existing scheme check from tool_operate.
In the case of --remote-header-name we want to parse Content-disposition
for a filename, but only if the scheme is http or https. A recent
adjustment 0dc4d8e was made to account for schemeless URLs however it's
not 100% accurate. To remedy that I've moved the scheme check to the
header callback, since at that point the library has already determined
the scheme.
Bug: https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/760
Reported-by: Kai Noda
It does open up a miniscule risk that one of the other protocols that
libcurl could use would send back a Content-Disposition header and then
curl would act on it even if not HTTP.
A future mitigation for this risk would be to allow the callback to ask
libcurl which protocol is being used.

SANITIZE_ALLOW_PATH: Allow path separators and colons
SANITIZE_ALLOW_RESERVED: Allow reserved device names
SANITIZE_ALLOW_TRUNCATE: Allow truncating a long filename
- Restore sanitization of banned characters from user-specified outfile.
Prior to this commit sanitization of a user-specified outfile was
temporarily disabled in 2b6dadc because there was no way to allow path
separators and colons through while replacing other banned characters.
Now in such a case we call the sanitize function with
SANITIZE_ALLOW_PATH which allows path separators and colons to pass
through.
