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).

* Added description to Curl_sspi_free_identity()
* Added parameter and return explanations to Curl_sspi_global_init()
* Added parameter explaination to Curl_sspi_global_cleanup()
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.

... instead of if() before the switch(), add a default to the switch so
that the compilers don't warn on "warning: enumeration value
'PLATFORM_DONT_CARE' not handled in switch" anymore.
- Disable ALPN on Wine.
- Don't pass input secbuffer when ALPN is disabled.
When ALPN support was added a change was made to pass an input secbuffer
to initialize the context. When ALPN is enabled the buffer contains the
ALPN information, and when it's disabled the buffer is empty. In either
case this input buffer caused problems with Wine and connections would
not complete.

Serialise the call to PK11_FindSlotByName() to avoid spurious errors in
a multi-threaded environment. The underlying cause is a race condition
in nssSlot_IsTokenPresent().

When we're uploading using FTP and the server issues a tiny pause
between opening the connection to the client's secondary socket, the
client's initial poll() times out, which leads to second poll() which
does not wait for POLLIN on the secondary socket. So that poll() also
has to time out, creating a long (200ms) pause.
This patch adds the correct flag to the secondary socket, making the
second poll() correctly wait for the connection there too.

Closes#978
Instead of displaying the requested hostname the one returned
by the SOCKS5 proxy server is used in case of connection error.
The requested hostname is displayed earlier in the connection sequence.
The upper-value of the port is moved to a temporary variable and
replaced with a 0-byte to make sure the hostname is 0-terminated.
Hooked up the HTTP authentication layer to query the new 'is mechanism
supported' functions when deciding what mechanism to use.
As per commit 00417fd66c existing functionality is maintained for now.
Hooked up the SASL authentication layer to query the new 'is mechanism
supported' functions when deciding what mechanism to use.
For now existing functionality is maintained.
As Windows SSPI authentication calls fail when a particular mechanism
isn't available, introduced these functions for DIGEST, NTLM, Kerberos 5
and Negotiate to allow both HTTP and SASL authentication the opportunity
to query support for a supported mechanism before selecting it.
For now each function returns TRUE to maintain compatability with the
existing code when called.
I discovered some people have been using "https://example.com" style
strings as proxy and it "works" (curl doesn't complain) because curl
ignores unknown schemes and then assumes plain HTTP instead.
I think this misleads users into believing curl uses HTTPS to proxies
when it doesn't. Now curl rejects proxy strings using unsupported
schemes instead of just ignoring and defaulting to HTTP.
Undo change introduced in d4643d6 which caused iPAddress match to be
ignored if dNSName was present but did not match.
Also, if iPAddress is present but does not match, and dNSName is not
present, fail as no-match. Prior to this change in such a case the CN
would be checked for a match.

Mark's new document about HTTP Retries
(https://mnot.github.io/I-D/httpbis-retry/) made me check our code and I
spotted that we don't retry failed HEAD requests which seems totally
inconsistent and I can't see any reason for that separate treatment.
So, no separate treatment for HEAD starting now. A HTTP request sent
over a reused connection that gets cut off before a single byte is
received will be retried on a fresh connection.

Makes libcurl work in communication with gstreamer-based RTSP
servers. The original code validates the session id to be in accordance
with the RFC. I think it is better not to do that:
- For curl the actual content is a don't care.
- The clarity of the RFC is debatable, is $ allowed or only as \$, that
is imho not clear
- Gstreamer seems to url-encode the session id but % is not allowed by
the RFC
- less code
With this patch curl will correctly handle real-life lines like:
Session: biTN4Kc.8%2B1w-AF.; timeout=60

All compilers used by cmake in Windows should support large files.
- Add test SIZEOF_OFF_T
- Remove outdated test SIZEOF_CURL_OFF_T
- Turn on USE_WIN32_LARGE_FILES in Windows
- Check for 'Largefile' during the features output
Since the server can at any time send a HTTP/2 frame to us, we need to
wait for the socket to be readable during all transfers so that we can
act on incoming frames even when uploading etc.

In order to make MBEDTLS_DEBUG work, the debug threshold must be unequal
to 0. This patch also adds a comment how mbedtls must be compiled in
order to make debugging work, and explains the possible debug levels.
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.

When input stream for curl is stdin and input stream is not a file but
generated by a script then curl can truncate data transfer to arbitrary
size since a partial packet is treated as end of transfer by TFTP.
