multi: improved pending transfers handling => improved performance
When a transfer is requested to get done and it is put in the pending
queue when limited by number of connections, total or per-host, libcurl
would previously very aggressively retry *ALL* pending transfers to get
them transferring. That was very time consuming.

By reducing the aggressiveness in how pending are being retried, we
waste MUCH less time on putting transfers back into pending again.

Some test cases got a factor 30(!) speed improvement with this change.

pause: when changing pause state, update socket state
Especially unpausing a transfer might have to move the socket back to the
"currently used sockets" hash to get monitored. Otherwise it would never get
any more data and get stuck. Easily triggered with pausing using the
multi_socket API.

rate-limit: use three second window to better handle high speeds
Due to very frequent updates of the rate limit "window", it could
attempt to rate limit within the same milliseconds and that then made
the calculations wrong, leading to it not behaving correctly on very
fast transfers.

This new logic updates the rate limit "window" to be no shorter than the
last three seconds and only updating the timestamps for this when
switching between the states TOOFAST/PERFORM.

164a09368d multi: fix request timer management
There are some bugs in how timers are managed for a single easy handle
that causes the wrong "next timeout" value to be reported to the
application when a new minimum needs to be recomputed and that new
minimum should be an existing timer that isn't currently set for the
easy handle.  When the application drives a set of easy handles via the
`curl_multi_socket_action()` API (for example), it gets told to wait the
wrong amount of time before the next call, which causes requests to
linger for a long time (or, it is my guess, possibly forever).

7fffe97b78 expire: remove Curl_expire_latest()
With the introduction of expire IDs and the fact that existing timers
can be removed now and thus never expire, the concept with adding a
"latest" timer is not working anymore as it risks to not expire at all.

So, to be certain the timers actually are in line and will expire, the
plain Curl_expire() needs to be used. The _latest() function was added
as a sort of shortcut in the past that's quite simply not necessary
anymore.

be299a4dba multi: clarify condition in curl_multi_wait
`if(nfds || extra_nfds) {` is followed by `malloc(nfds * ...)`.

If `extra_fs` could be non-zero when `nfds` was zero, then we have
`malloc(0)` which is allowed to return `NULL`. But, malloc returning
NULL can be confusing. In this code, the next line would treat the NULL
as an allocation failure.

It turns out, if `nfds` is zero then `extra_nfds` must also be zero.
The final value of `nfds` includes `extra_nfds`.  So the test for
`extra_nfds` is redundant.  It can only confuse the reader.

cb4e2be7c6 proxy: Support HTTPS proxy and SOCKS+HTTP(s)
* 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.

5c3d8d20a6 curl_multi_add_handle: set timeouts in closure handles
The closure handle only ever has default timeouts set. To improve the
state somewhat we clone the timeouts from each added handle so that the
closure handle always has the same timeouts as the most recently added
easy handle.

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

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.

bde2f09d5e multi: make Curl_expire() work with 0 ms timeouts
Previously, passing a timeout of zero to Curl_expire() was a magic code
for clearing all timeouts for the handle. That is now instead made with
the new Curl_expire_clear() function and thus a 0 timeout is fine to set
and will trigger a timeout ASAP.

This will help removing short delays, in particular notable when doing
HTTP/2.

6eb60c2dc5 transfer: return without select when the read loop reached maxcount
Regression added in 790d6de485. The was then added to avoid one
particular transfer to starve out others. But when aborting due to
reading the maxcount, the connection must be marked to be read from
again without first doing a select as for some protocols (like SFTP/SCP)
the data may already have been read off the socket.
