The function does not return the same value as snprintf() normally does,
so readers may be mislead into thinking the code works differently than
it actually does. A different function name makes this easier to detect.

The define is not in our name space and is therefore not protected by
our API promises.
It was only really used by libcurl internals but was mostly erased from
there already in 8aabbf5 (March 2015). This is supposedly the final
death blow to that define from everywhere.
As a side-effect, making sure _MPRINTF_REPLACE is gone and not used, I
made the lib tests in tests/libtest/ use curl_printf.h for its redefine
magic and then subsequently the use of sprintf() got banned in the tests
as well (as it is in libcurl internals) and I then replaced them all
with snprintf().
In the unlikely event that any users is actually using this define and
gets sad by this change, it is very easily copied to the user's own
code.
When a connection is no longer used, it is kept in the cache. If the
cache is full, the oldest idle connection is closed. If no connection is
idle, the current one is closed instead.
