Introducing a number of options to the multi interface that
allows for multiple pipelines to the same host, in order to
optimize the balance between the penalty for opening new
connections and the potential pipelining latency.
Two new options for limiting the number of connections:
CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS - Limits the number of running connections
to the same host. When adding a handle that exceeds this limit,
that handle will be put in a pending state until another handle is
finished, so we can reuse the connection.
CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS - Limits the number of connections in total.
When adding a handle that exceeds this limit,
that handle will be put in a pending state until another handle is
finished. The free connection will then be reused, if possible, or
closed if the pending handle can't reuse it.
Several new options for pipelining:
CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH - Limits the pipeling length. If a
pipeline is "full" when a connection is to be reused, a new connection
will be opened if the CURLMOPT_MAX_xxx_CONNECTIONS limits allow it.
If not, the handle will be put in a pending state until a connection is
ready (either free or a pipe got shorter).
CURLMOPT_CONTENT_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE - A pipelined connection will not
be reused if it is currently processing a transfer with a content
length that is larger than this.
CURLMOPT_CHUNK_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE - A pipelined connection will not
be reused if it is currently processing a chunk larger than this.
CURLMOPT_PIPELINING_SITE_BL - A blacklist of hosts that don't allow
pipelining.
CURLMOPT_PIPELINING_SERVER_BL - A blacklist of server types that don't allow
pipelining.
See the curl_multi_setopt() man page for details.
Remove internal separated behavior of the easy vs multi intercace.
curl_easy_perform() is now using the multi interface itself.
Several minor multi interface quirks and bugs have been fixed in the
process.

This commit renames lib/setup.h to lib/curl_setup.h and
renames lib/setup_once.h to lib/curl_setup_once.h.
Removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard foreign
to libcurl. [1]
Removes the need and presence of an alarming notice we carried
in old setup_once.h [2]
----------------------------------------
1 - lib/setup_once.h used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro as header inclusion guard
up to commit ec691ca3 which changed this to HEADER_CURL_SETUP_ONCE_H,
this single inclusion guard is enough to ensure that inclusion of
lib/setup_once.h done from lib/setup.h is only done once.
Additionally lib/setup.h has always used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro to
protect inclusion of setup_once.h even after commit ec691ca3, this
was to avoid a circular header inclusion triggered when building a
c-ares enabled version with c-ares sources available which also has
a setup_once.h header. Commit ec691ca3 exposes the real nature of
__SETUP_ONCE_H usage in lib/setup.h, it is a header inclusion guard
foreign to libcurl belonging to c-ares's setup_once.h
The renaming this commit does, fixes the circular header inclusion,
and as such removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard
foreign to libcurl. Macro __SETUP_ONCE_H no longer used in libcurl.
2 - Due to the circular interdependency of old lib/setup_once.h and the
c-ares setup_once.h header, old file lib/setup_once.h has carried
back from 2006 up to now days an alarming and prominent notice about
the need of keeping libcurl's and c-ares's setup_once.h in sync.
Given that this commit fixes the circular interdependency, the need
and presence of mentioned notice is removed.
All mentioned interdependencies come back from now old days when
the c-ares project lived inside a curl subdirectory. This commit
removes last traces of such fact.

The text "additional stuff not fine" text was added for debug purposes a
while ago, but it isn't really helping anyone and for some reason some
Linux distributions provide their libcurls built with debug info still
present and thus (far too many) users get to read this info.
As a handle can be re-used after having done HTTP auth in a previous
request, it must make sure to clear out the HTTP types that aren't
wanted in this new request.
This reverts commit ce8311c7e4.
The commit made test 2024 work but caused a regression with repeated
Digest authentication. We need to fix this differently.
The Curl_reconnect_request() function could end up returning a pointer
to a free()d struct when Curl_done() failed inside. Clearing the pointer
unconditionally after Curl_done() avoids this risk.

When figuring out if the data stream needs to be rewound when the
request is to be resent, we must not access the HTTP struct unless the
protocol used is indeed HTTP...
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=3544688
With FOLLOWLOCATION enabled. When a 3xx page is downloaded and the
download size was known (like with a Content-Length header), but the
subsequent URL (transfered after the 3xx page) was chunked encoded, then
the previous "known download size" would linger and cause the progress
meter to get incorrect information, ie the former value would remain
being sent in. This could easily result in downloads that were WAY
larger than "expected" and would cause >100% outputs with the curl
command line tool.
Test case 599 was created and it was used to repeat the bug and then
verify the fix.

The load host names to DNS cache function was moved to hostip.c and it
now makes sure to not add host names that already are present in the
cache. It would previously lead to memory leaks when for example using
the --resolve and multiple URLs on the command line.
The commit 9dd85bc unintentionally changed the way we compute the time
spent waiting for 100-continue. In particular, when using a SSL client
certificate, the time spent by SSL handshake was included and could
cause the CURL_TIMEOUT_EXPECT_100 timeout to be mistakenly fired up.

Just internal stuff...
Curl_safefree is now a macro defined in memdebug.h instead of a function
prototyped in url.h and implemented in url.c, so inclusion of url.h is no
longer required in order to simply use Curl_safefree.
Provide definition of macro WHILE_FALSE in setup_once.h in order to allow
other macros such as DEBUGF and DEBUGASSERT, and code using it, to compile
without 'conditional expression is constant' warnings.
The WHILE_FALSE stuff fixes 150+ MSVC compiler warnings.
When libcurl has said to the server that there's a POST or PUT coming
(with a content-length and all) it has to either deliver that amount of
data or it needs to close the connection before trying a second request.
Adds test case 1129, 1130 and 1131
The bug report is about when used with 100-continue, but the change is
more generic.

Reported by: Steven Parkes
When a time condition isn't met, so that no body is delivered to the
application even though a 2xx response is being read from the server, we
must close the connection to avoid a re-use of the connection to be
completely tricked.
Added test 1128 to verify.
Introduced the initial setup to allow closesocket callbacks by making
sure sclose() is only ever called from one place in the libcurl source
and still run all test cases fine.
Made several functions static
Made one function defined to nothing when RTSP is disabled to avoid
the #ifdefs in code.
Removed explicit rtsp.h includes
asyn-ares.c and asyn-thread.c are two separate backends that implement
the same (internal) async resolver API for libcurl to use. Backend is
specified at build time.
The internal resolver API is defined in asyn.h for asynch resolvers.
