RFC 6265 section 4.1.1 spells out that the first name/value pair in the
header is the actual cookie name and content, while the following are
the parameters.
libcurl previously had a more liberal approach which causes significant
problems when introducing new cookie parameters, like the suggested new
cookie priority draft.
The previous logic read all n/v pairs from left-to-right and the first
name used that wassn't a known parameter name would be used as the
cookie name, thus accepting "Set-Cookie: Max-Age=2; person=daniel" to be
a cookie named 'person' while an RFC 6265 compliant parser should
consider that to be a cookie named 'Max-Age' with an (unknown) parameter
'person'.
Fixes#709
Prior to this change cookies with an expiry date that failed parsing
and were converted to session cookies could be purged in remove_expired.

It turns out Firefox and Chrome both allow spaces in cookie names and
there are sites out there using that.
Turned out the code meant to strip off trailing space from cookie names
didn't work. Fixed now.
Test case 8 modified to verify both these changes.
Closes#639
In 3013bb6 I had changed cookie export to ignore any-domain cookies,
however the logic I used to do so was incorrect, and would lead to a
busy loop in the case of exporting a cookie list that contained
any-domain cookies. The result of that is worse though, because in that
case the other cookies would not be written resulting in an empty file
once the application is terminated to stop the busy loop.
Prior to this change any-domain cookies (cookies without a domain that
are sent to any domain) were exported with domain name "unknown".

- Change fopen calls to use FOPEN_READTEXT instead of "r" or "rt"
- Change fopen calls to use FOPEN_WRITETEXT instead of "w" or "wt"
This change is to explicitly specify when we need to read/write text.
Unfortunately 't' is not part of POSIX fopen so we can't specify it
directly. Instead we now have FOPEN_READTEXT, FOPEN_WRITETEXT.
Prior to this change we had an issue on Windows if an application that
uses libcurl overrides the default file mode to binary. The default file
mode in Windows is normally text mode (translation mode) and that's what
libcurl expects.

The internal libcurl function called sanitize_cookie_path() that cleans
up the path element as given to it from a remote site or when read from
a file, did not properly validate the input. If given a path that
consisted of a single double-quote, libcurl would index a newly
allocated memory area with index -1 and assign a zero to it, thus
destroying heap memory it wasn't supposed to.

"name =value" is fine and the space should just be skipped.

This header file must be included after all header files except
memdebug.h, as it does similar memory function redefinitions and can be
similarly affected by conflicting definitions in system or dependent
library headers.
Since we just started make use of free(NULL) in order to simplify code,
this change takes it a step further and:
- converts lots of Curl_safefree() calls to good old free()
- makes Curl_safefree() not check the pointer before free()
The (new) rule of thumb is: if you really want a function call that
frees a pointer and then assigns it to NULL, then use Curl_safefree().
But we will prefer just using free() from now on.
The function "free" is documented in the way that no action shall occur for
a passed null pointer. It is therefore not needed that a function caller
repeats a corresponding check.

This fixes the test 506 torture test. The internal cookie API really
ought to be improved to separate cookie parsing errors (which may be
ignored) with OOM errors (which should be fatal).
By not detecting and rejecting domain names for partial literal IP
addresses properly when parsing received HTTP cookies, libcurl can be
fooled to both send cookies to wrong sites and to allow arbitrary sites
to set cookies for others.

Following commit 0aafd77fa4, replaced the internal usage of
FORMAT_OFF_T and FORMAT_OFF_TU with the external versions that we
expect API programmers to use.
This negates the need for separate definitions which were subtly
different under different platforms/compilers.
Implement: Expired Cookies These following situation, curl removes
cookie(s) from struct CookieInfo if the cookie expired.
- Curl_cookie_add()
- Curl_cookie_getlist()
- cookie_output()
The initial fix to only compare full path names were done in commit
04f52e9b4d but found out to be incomplete. This takes should make the
change more complete and there's now two additional tests to verify
(test 31 and 62).
1 - don't skip host names with a colon in them in an attempt to bail out
on HTTP headers in the cookie file parser. It was only a shortcut anyway
and trying to parse a file with HTTP headers will still be handled, only
slightly slower.
2 - don't skip domain names based on number of dots. The original
netscape cookie spec had this oddity mentioned and while our code
decreased the check to only check for two, the existing cookie spec has
no such dot counting required.

I found a bug which cURL sends cookies to the path not to aim at.
For example:
- cURL sends a request to http://example.fake/hoge/
- server returns cookie which with path=/hoge;
the point is there is NOT the '/' end of path string.
- cURL sends a request to http://example.fake/hogege/ with the cookie.
The reason for this old "feature" is because that behavior is what is
described in the original netscape cookie spec:
http://curl.haxx.se/rfc/cookie_spec.html
The current cookie spec (RFC6265) clarifies the situation:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265#section-5.2.4
Cookies set for 'example.com' could accidentaly also be sent by libcurl
to the 'bexample.com' (ie with a prefix to the first domain name).
This is a security vulnerabilty, CVE-2013-1944.

Since qsort implementations vary with regards to handling the order
of similiar elements, this change makes the internal sort function
more deterministic by comparing path length first, then domain length
and finally the cookie name. Spotted with testcase 62 on Windows.
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.

There are two keywords in cookie headers that don't follow the regular
name=value style: secure and httponly. Still we must support that they
are written like 'secure=' and then treat them as if they were written
'secure'. Test case 31 was much extended by Rob Ward to test this.

1 - make sure to #define macros for cookie functions in the cookie
header when cookies are disabled to avoid having to use #ifdefs in code
using those functions.
2 - move cookie-specific code to cookie.c and use the functio
conditionally as mentioned in (1).
net result: 6 #if lines removed, and 9 lines of code less
Providing multiple dots in a series in the domain field (domain=..com) could
trick the cookie engine to wrongly accept the cookie believing it to be
fine. Since the tailmatching would then match all .com sites, the cookie would
then be sent to all of them.
The code now requires at least one letter between each dot for them to be
counted. Edited test case 61 to verify this.
