The read callback must return the exact requested amount of data when it
is used for doing TFTP uploads. This is due to how it deals with data
internally. This could/should be fixed but for now we document the
existing behavior.

When asked to bind the local end of a connection when doing a request,
the code will now disqualify other existing connections from re-use even
if they are connected to the correct remote host.
This will also affect which connections that can be used for pipelining,
so that only connections that aren't bound or bound to the same
device/port you're asking for will be considered.
The RTSP-specific function for checking for "dead" connection is better
located in rtsp.c. The code using this is now written without #ifdefs as
the function call is instead turned into a macro (in rtsp.h) when RTSP
is disabled.
Fixed:
271 - fix the IPv6-working probing to only exist at one place in the code and
only get done once
A problem not repeatable and no proper recipe given and therefore simply
removed for now until we hear something else:
282 - 100 Continue responses should return the "final" HTTP response code:
"Getting the HTTP response code following a 100 Continue"
Move ipv6-functional-probe into a single function that is used from all
places that need to know.
Make the probe function store the result in a static variable so that
subsequent invokes just returns the previous result and won't have to
probe again.
This is a new documentation for the source tree. This information has
been present since a long time at
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html but now it is put into a plain
text version too for wider distribution. The web version will be
automatically generated from this source document.
Curl_posttransfer is called too soon to add the final new line.
Moved the new line logic to pgrsDone as there is no more call to
update the progress status after this call.

When libcurl sends a HTTP request on a re-used connection and detects it
being closed (ie no data at all was read from it), it is important to
rewind if any data in the request was sent using the read callback or
was read from file, as otherwise the retried request will be broken.

Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=3195205
When NSS-powered libcurl connected to a SSL server with
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER equal to zero, NSS remembered that the peer
certificate was accepted by libcurl and did not ask the second time when
connecting to the same server with CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER equal to one.
This patch turns off the SSL session cache for the particular SSL socket
if peer verification is disabled. In order to avoid any performance
impact, the peer verification is completely skipped in that case, which
makes it even faster than before.
