The old way using getpwuid could cause problems in programs that enable
reading from netrc files simultaneously in multiple threads.

libcurl truncates usernames and passwords it reads from .netrc to
LOGINSIZE and PASSWORDSIZE (64) characters without any indication to
the user, to ensure the values returned from Curl_parsenetrc fit in a
caller-provided buffer.
Fix the interface by passing back dynamically allocated buffers
allocated to fit the user's input. The parser still relies on a
256-character buffer to read each line, though.
So now you can include an ~246-character password in your .netrc,
instead of the previous limit of 63 characters.

config_h.com is a new file that generates a config.h file based on the
curl_config.h.in file and a quick scan of the configure script. This is
actually a generic procedure that is shared with other VMS packages.
The existing pre-built config-vms.h had over 100 entries that were not
correct and in some cases conflicted with the build options available in
the build_vms.com.
generate_config_vms_h_curl.com is a helper procedure to the
config_h.com. It covers the cases that the generic config_h.com is not
able to figure out, and accepts input from the build_vms.com procedure.
build_curlbuild_h.com is a new file to generate the curlbuild.h file
that Curl is now using when it is using a curl_config.h file.
post-config-vms.h is a new file that is needed to provide VMS specific
definitions, and most of them need to be set before the system header
files are included.
The VMS build procedure is fixed:
1. Fixed to link in the correct HP ssl library.
2. Fixed to detect if HP Kerberos is installed.
3. Fixed to detect if HP LDAP is installed.
4. Fixed to detect if gnv$libzshr is installed.
5. Simplified the input parameter parsing to not use a loop.
6. Warn that 64 bit pointer option support is not complete
in comments.
7. Default to IEEE floating if platform supports it so
resulting libcurl will be compatible with other
open source projects on VMS.
8. Default to LARGEFILE if platform supports it.
9. Default to enable SSL, LDAP, Kerberos, libz
if the libraries are present.
10. Build with exact case global symbols for libcurl.
11. Generate linker option file needed.
12. Compiler list option only commonly needed items.
13. fulllist option for those who really want it.
14. Create debug symbol file on Alpha, IA64.
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.

Removed the "netrc_debug" keyword replaced with --netrc-file additions.
Removed the debug code from Curl_parsenetrc as it is superseeded by
--netrc-file.
The main has not been updated from some time and is out of sync with
the code. The code is now tested by several test cases so no need for
a seperate code path.
With the curl memory tracking feature decoupled from the debug build feature,
CURLDEBUG and DEBUGBUILD preprocessor symbol definitions are used as follows:
CURLDEBUG used for curl debug memory tracking specific code (--enable-curldebug)
DEBUGBUILD used for debug enabled specific code (--enable-debug)
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2154627) which pointed out that libcurl
uses strcasecmp() in multiple places where it causes failures when the
Turkish locale is used. This is because 'i' and 'I' isn't the same letter so
strcasecmp() on those letters are different in Turkish than in English (or
just about all other languages). I thus introduced a totally new internal
function in libcurl (called Curl_ascii_equal) for doing case insentive
comparisons for english-(ascii?) style strings that thus will make "file"
and "FILE" match even if the Turkish locale is selected.
.netrc, and when following a Location: the subsequent requests didn't properly
use the auth as found in the netrc file. Added test case 257 to verify my fix.
default netrc file. We now read and uses HOME _before_ we use getpwuid() to
better allow users to move around HOME to use different .netrc files without
having to rely on even blacker magic.
