The same callback code is used in:
imap-append.c

smtp-mail.c
smtp-multi.c
smtp-ssl.c
smtp-tls.c
It should not assume that it can copy full lines into the buffer as it
will encourage sloppy coding practices. Instead use byte-wise logic and
check/acknowledge the buffer size appropriately.

Warning: this will make existing curl command lines that use metalink to
stop working.
Reasons for removal:
1. We've found several security problems and issues involving the
metalink support in curl. The issues are not detailed here. When
working on those, it become apparent to the team that several of the
problems are due to the system design, metalink library API and what
the metalink RFC says. They are very hard to fix on the curl side
only.
2. The metalink usage with curl was only very briefly documented and was
not following the "normal" curl usage pattern in several ways, making
it surprising and non-intuitive which could lead to further security
issues.
3. The metalink library was last updated 6 years ago and wasn't so
active the years before that either. An unmaintained library means
there's a security problem waiting to happen. This is probably reason
enough.
4. Metalink requires an XML parsing library, which is complex code (even
the smaller alternatives) and to this day often gets security
updates.
5. Metalink is not a widely used curl feature. In the 2020 curl user
survey, only 1.4% of the responders said that they'd are using it. In
2021 that number was 1.2%. Searching the web also show very few
traces of it being used, even with other tools.
6. The torrent format and associated technology clearly won for
downloading large files from multiple sources in parallel.

Add files that are generated by 'make examples' and remove some that
have been renamed.
The commits that renamed the programs are e9625c5bc6 (imap.c and
simplesmtp.c were renamed to imap-fetch.c and smtp-send.c) and
ad39e7ec01 (pop3slist.c and pop3s.c were renamed to pop3-list.c and
pop3-ssl.c).

If `index.html` does not exist in the directory from which the example
is invoked, the fopen(upload, "rb") invocation in `setup` would fail,
returning NULL. This value is subsequently passed as the FILE* argument
of the `fread` invocation in the `read_callback` function, which is the
actual cause of the crash (apparently `fread` assumes that argument to
be non-null).
In addition, mitigate some possible crashes of similar origin.
Closes#5463
- Stick to a single unified way to use structs

This example has repeatedly been reported to contain bugs, and as users
