All Windows APIs have been natively UTF-16 since Windows 2000 and the
non-Unicode variants are just wrappers around them. Only Windows 9x
doesn't understand Unicode without the UnicoWS DLL. As later Visual
Studio versions cannot target Windows 9x anyway, using the ANSI API
doesn't really have any benefit there.
This avoids issues like KNOWN_BUGS 6.5.

Starting with Visual Studio 2017 Update 9, Visual Studio doesn't like
the MinimalRebuild option anymore and warns:
cl : Command line warning D9035: option 'Gm' has been deprecated and
will be removed in a future release
The option can be safely removed so that the default is used.

The productname from Microsoft is "Schannel", but in infof/failf
reporting we use "schannel". This removes different versions.

The Visual Studio builds didn't use IPv6. Add it to all projects since
Visual Studio 2008, which is verified to build via AppVeyor.

- replace tabs with spaces where possible
- remove line ending spaces
- remove double/triple newlines at EOF
- fix a non-UTF-8 character
- cleanup a few indentations/line continuations

- Determine if perl is in the user's PATH by running perl.exe.
Prior to this change detection was done by checking the PATH for perl/
but that did not work in all cases (eg git install includes perl but
not in perl/ path).

Whilst the compiler parameter is mandatory, platform is optional as it
is automatically calculated by the :configure section.
This partially reverts commit 6d62d2c55d.
- Fix winbuild and the VS project generator to treat curl_ctype.{c,h} as
curlx files since they are required by both src and lib.
Follow-up to 4272a0b which added curl_ctype.
Visual Studio doesn't like LF line endings in solution files and always
converts them to CRLF when doing changes to the solution. Notably, this
affects the solutions in the release archive.

wolfSSL configure script relevant changes from 3.10 to 3.11:
- Async threading support added; disabled by default without async
crypto, which continues to be disabled by default.
wolfSSL configure script relevant changes from 3.11 to 3.11.1 (beta):
- TLS 1.3 beta support added; disabled by default.
For experimenting I put in a comment block the defines needed to enable
TLS 1.3 support (ie the equivalent of --enable-tls13).
wolfSSL configure script relevant changes from 3.9 to 3.10:
- DES3 no longer enabled by default
- Shamir no longer enabled by default
- Extended master secret enabled by default
- RSA and ECC timing protections enabled by default
For backwards compatibility I enabled DES3 and ECC shamir config options
(ie no change from 3.9), and the other changes are included.
After squashing most of our compiler warnings, up'ed the default
warning level from 3 to 4 in order to increase the likelyhood of
catching future warnings.
This is an update to the build-time options used to build wolfSSL in
Visual Studio for greater compatibility, and make it behave similar to
the way OpenSSL 1.0.2 behaves. Starting in wolfSSL v3.6.6 static ciphers
and SSLv3 are disabled by default at build time, but we can use both.
- Enable static cipher suites TLS_ECDH_ and TLS_RSA_.
- Enable SSLv3 hello. Though in libcurl we disable it by default at
runtime, we make it available so the user can manually select it if
necessary.
Updated the makefiles and Visual Studio project files to support moving
the authentication code to the new lib/vauth directory that was started
in commit 0d04e859e1.
- Do not use wolfSSL's sample user-setting files.
wolfSSL starting in v3.9.0 has added their own sample user settings that
are applied by default, but we don't use them because we have our own
settings.
- Do not use wolfSSL's Visual Studio Unicode character setting.
wolfSSL Visual Studio projects use the Unicode character set however our
settings and options imitate mingw build which does not use the Unicode
character set. This does not appear to have any effect at the moment but
better safe than sorry.
These changes are backwards compatible with earlier versions.
As these files don't need to contain references to the source files,
although typically do, added basic files which only include three
filters and don't require the project file generator to be modified.
These files allow the source code to be viewed in the Solution Explorer
in versions of Visual Studio from 2010 onwards in the same manner as
previous versions did rather than one large view of files.
