- Add new option CURLOPT_RESOLVER_START_FUNCTION to set a callback that
will be called every time before a new resolve request is started
(ie before a host is resolved) with a pointer to backend-specific
resolver data. Currently this is only useful for ares.
- Add new option CURLOPT_RESOLVER_START_DATA to set a user pointer to
pass to the resolver start callback.

- In keeping with the naming of our other connect timeout options rename
CURLOPT_HAPPY_EYEBALLS_TIMEOUT to CURLOPT_HAPPY_EYEBALLS_TIMEOUT_MS.
This change adds the _MS suffix since the option expects milliseconds.
This is more intuitive for our users since other connect timeout options
that expect milliseconds use _MS such as CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS,
CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS, CURLOPT_ACCEPTTIMEOUT_MS.
The tool option already uses an -ms suffix, --happy-eyeballs-timeout-ms.
Follow-up to 2427d94 which added the lib and tool option yesterday.

- Add new option CURLOPT_HAPPY_EYEBALLS_TIMEOUT to set libcurl's happy
eyeball timeout value.
- Add new optval macro CURL_HET_DEFAULT to represent the default happy
eyeballs timeout value (currently 200 ms).
- Add new tool option --happy-eyeballs-timeout-ms to expose
CURLOPT_HAPPY_EYEBALLS_TIMEOUT. The -ms suffix is used because the
other -timeout options in the tool expect seconds not milliseconds.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/2260
This enables users to preresolve but still take advantage of happy
eyeballs and trying multiple addresses if some are not connecting.

Bug: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_2018-b3bf.html
A mime tree attached to an easy handle using CURLOPT_MIMEPOST is
strongly bound to the handle: there is a pointer to the easy handle in
each item of the mime tree and following the parent pointer list
of mime items ends in a dummy part stored within the handle.
Because of this binding, a mime tree cannot be shared between different
easy handles, thus it needs to be cloned upon easy handle duplication.
There is no way for the caller to get the duplicated mime tree
handle: it is then set to be automatically destroyed upon freeing the
new easy handle.
New test 654 checks proper mime structure duplication/release.
Add a warning note in curl_mime_data_cb() documentation about sharing
user data between duplicated handles.
Closes#2235
- Ignore X509_R_CERT_ALREADY_IN_HASH_TABLE errors in the CTX callback

Connections that are used for HTTP/1.1 Pipelining or HTTP/2 multiplexing

HTTP/2 streams in different threads using a shared connection.

This bit is no longer used. It is not clear what it meant for users to

The --interface command (CURLOPT_INTERFACE option) already uses
SO_BINDTODEVICE on Linux, but it tries to parse it as an interface or IP
address first, which fails in case the user passes a VRF.

instead. Update the documentation to mention this feature, and that it
requires the binary to be ran by root or with CAP_NET_RAW capabilities

This uses the brotli external library (https://github.com/google/brotli).
Brotli becomes a feature: additional curl_version_info() bit and
structure fields are provided for it and CURLVERSION_NOW bumped.
Tests 314 and 315 check Brotli content unencoding with correct and
erroneous data.
Some tests are updated to accomodate with the now configuration dependent
parameters of the Accept-Encoding header.
This is implemented as an output streaming stack of unencoders, the last
calling the client write procedure.

If stdin is not a regular file, its content is memory-buffered to enable
a possible data "rewind".
In all cases, stdin data size is determined before real use to avoid
having an unknown part's size.
--libcurl generated code is left as an unbuffered stdin fread/fseek callback
part with unknown data size.
Buffering is not supported in deprecated curl_formadd() API.
... now with a -formadd suffix. While the new mime API is introduced in
7.56.0 we must acknowledge that lots of users can't upgrade their curl
versions immediately.

To support telling a string is nul-terminated, symbol CURL_ZERO_TERMINATED

symbols in versions updated. Added form API symbols deprecation info.
This feature is badly supported in Windows: as a replacement, a caller has
to use curl_mime_data_cb() with fread, fseek and possibly fclose
callbacks to process opened files.
The cli tool and documentation are updated accordingly.
The feature is however kept internally for form API compatibility, with
the known caveats it always had.
As a side effect, stdin size is not determined by the cli tool even if
possible and this results in a chunked transfer encoding. Test 173 is
updated accordingly.
Additional mime-specific tests.
Existing tests updated to reflect small differences (Expect: 100-continue,

Bug: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2017-08/0119.html
Let's add a compile time safe API to select an SSL backend. This
function needs to be called *before* curl_global_init(), and can be
called only once.
Side note: we do not explicitly test that it is called before
curl_global_init(), but we do verify that it is not called multiple times
(even implicitly).
If SSL is used before the function was called, it will use whatever the
CURL_SSL_BACKEND environment variable says (or default to the first
available SSL backend), and if a subsequent call to
curl_global_sslset() disagrees with the previous choice, it will fail
with CURLSSLSET_TOO_LATE.
The function also accepts an "avail" parameter to point to a (read-only)
NULL-terminated list of available backends. This comes in real handy if
an application wants to let the user choose between whatever SSL backends
the currently available libcurl has to offer: simply call
curl_global_sslset(-1, NULL, &avail);
which will return CURLSSLSET_UNKNOWN_BACKEND and populate the avail
variable to point to the relevant information to present to the user.
Just like with the HTTP/2 push functions, we have to add the function
declaration of curl_global_sslset() function to the header file
*multi.h* because VMS and OS/400 require a stable order of functions
declared in include/curl/*.h (where the header files are sorted
alphabetically). This looks a bit funny, but it cannot be helped.

The required low-level logic was already available as part of
`libssh2` (via `LIBSSH2_FLAG_COMPRESS` `libssh2_session_flag()`[1]
option.)
This patch adds the new `libcurl` option `CURLOPT_SSH_COMPRESSION`
(boolean) and the new `curl` command-line option `--compressed-ssh`
to request this `libssh2` feature. To have compression enabled, it
is required that the SSH server supports a (zlib) compatible
compression method and that `libssh2` was built with `zlib` support
enabled.

Related changes:
- Rename `Curl_pgrsResetTimesSizes` to `Curl_pgrsResetTransferSizes`
now that the function only resets transfer sizes and no longer
modifies any of the progress timers.
- Add a bool to the `Progress` struct that is used to prevent
double-counting `t_starttransfer` times.

If libcurl was built with GSS-API support, it unconditionally advertised
GSS-API authentication while connecting to a SOCKS5 proxy. This caused
problems in environments with improperly configured Kerberos: a stock
libcurl failed to connect, despite libcurl built without GSS-API
connected fine using username and password.
This commit introduces the CURLOPT_SOCKS5_AUTH option to control the
allowed methods for SOCKS5 authentication at run time.
Note that a new option was preferred over reusing CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH
for compatibility reasons because the set of authentication methods
allowed by default was different for HTTP and SOCKS5 proxies.
