- Reorder some internal struct members so that less padding is used.
This is an attempt at saving a bit of space by packing some structs
(using pahole to find the holes) where it might make sense to do
so without losing readability.
I.e., I tried to avoid separating fields that seem grouped
together (like the cwd... fields in struct ftp_conn for instance).
Also abstained from touching fields behind conditional macros as
that quickly can get complicated.

... instead of having it static within the Curl_easy struct. This takes
away 1176 bytes (18%) from the Curl_easy struct that aren't used very
often and instead makes the code allocate it when needed.
Closes#6492
The SOCKS code now uses the generic download buffer for temporary
storage during the connection procedure, instead of having its own
private 600 byte buffer that adds to the connectdata struct size. This
works fine because this point the buffer is allocated but is not use for
download yet since the connection hasn't completed.
This reduces the connection struct size by 22% on a 64bit arch!
The SOCKS buffer needs to be at least 600 bytes, and the download buffer
is guaranteed to never be smaller than 1000 bytes.
Closes#6491
By making the `magic` identifier the same size and at the same place
within the structs (easy, multi, share), libcurl will be able to more
reliably detect and safely error out if an application passes in the
wrong handle to APIs. Easier to detect and less likely to cause crashes
if done.
Such mixups can't be detected at compile-time due to them being
typedefed void pointers - unless `CURL_STRICTER` is defined.
Closes#6484
... in most cases instead of 'struct connectdata *' but in some cases in
addition to.
- We mostly operate on transfers and not connections.
- We need the transfer handle to log, store data and more. Everything in
libcurl is driven by a transfer (the CURL * in the public API).
- This work clarifies and separates the transfers from the connections
better.
- We should avoid "conn->data". Since individual connections can be used
by many transfers when multiplexing, making sure that conn->data
points to the current and correct transfer at all times is difficult
and has been notoriously error-prone over the years. The goal is to
ultimately remove the conn->data pointer for this reason.

most of the code is in lib/http_v4_signature.c
Information require by the algorithm:
- The URL
- Current time
- some prefix that are append to some of the signature parameters.
The data extracted from the URL are: the URI, the region,
the host and the API type
example:
https://api.eu-west-2.outscale.com/api/latest/ReadNets
~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
^ ^ ^
/ \ URI
API type region
Small description of the algorithm:
- make canonical header using content type, the host, and the date
- hash the post data
- make canonical_request using custom request, the URI,
the get data, the canonical header, the signed header
and post data hash
- hash canonical_request
- make str_to_sign using one of the prefix pass in parameter,
the date, the credential scope and the canonical_request hash
- compute hmac from date, using secret key as key.
- compute hmac from region, using above hmac as key
- compute hmac from api_type, using above hmac as key
- compute hmac from request_type, using above hmac as key
- compute hmac from str_to_sign using above hmac as key
- create Authorization header using above hmac, prefix pass in parameter,
the date, and above hash

Failures clearly returned from a (SOCKS) proxy now causes this return
code. Previously the situation was not very clear as what would be
returned and when.
In addition: when this error code is returned, an application can use
CURLINFO_PROXY_ERROR to query libcurl for the detailed error, which then
returns a value from the new 'CURLproxycode' enum.

For QUIC but also for regular TCP when the second family runs out of IPs
with a failure while the first family is still trying to connect.
Separated the timeout handling for IPv4 and IPv6 connections when they
both have a number of addresses to iterate over.
Since the connection can be used by many independent requests (using
HTTP/2 or HTTP/3), things like user-agent and other transfer-specific
data MUST NOT be kept connection oriented as it could lead to requests
getting the wrong string for their requests. This struct data was
lingering like this due to old HTTP1 legacy thinking where it didn't
mattered..

... and free it as soon as the transfer is done. It removes the extra
alloc when a new size is set with setopt() and reduces memory for unused

A common set of functions instead of many separate implementations for
