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.

... to make all libcurl internals able to use the same data types for
the struct members. The timeval struct differs subtly on several
platforms so it makes it cumbersome to use everywhere.
Ref: #1652Closes#1693
Add a new type of callback to Curl_handler which performs checks on
the connection. Alter RTSP so that it uses this callback to do its
own check on connection health.
... since the total amount is low this is faster, easier and reduces
memory overhead.
Also, Curl_expire_done() can now mark an expire timeout as done so that
it never times out.
Closes#1472
'left' is used as time_t but declared as long.
MinGW complains:
error: conversion to 'long int' from 'time_t {aka long long int}' may alter
its value [-Werror=conversion]
Changed the declaration to time_t.
* HTTPS proxies:
An HTTPS proxy receives all transactions over an SSL/TLS connection.
Once a secure connection with the proxy is established, the user agent
uses the proxy as usual, including sending CONNECT requests to instruct
the proxy to establish a [usually secure] TCP tunnel with an origin
server. HTTPS proxies protect nearly all aspects of user-proxy
communications as opposed to HTTP proxies that receive all requests
(including CONNECT requests) in vulnerable clear text.
With HTTPS proxies, it is possible to have two concurrent _nested_
SSL/TLS sessions: the "outer" one between the user agent and the proxy
and the "inner" one between the user agent and the origin server
(through the proxy). This change adds supports for such nested sessions
as well.
A secure connection with a proxy requires its own set of the usual SSL
options (their actual descriptions differ and need polishing, see TODO):
--proxy-cacert FILE CA certificate to verify peer against
--proxy-capath DIR CA directory to verify peer against
--proxy-cert CERT[:PASSWD] Client certificate file and password
--proxy-cert-type TYPE Certificate file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-ciphers LIST SSL ciphers to use
--proxy-crlfile FILE Get a CRL list in PEM format from the file
--proxy-insecure Allow connections to proxies with bad certs
--proxy-key KEY Private key file name
--proxy-key-type TYPE Private key file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-pass PASS Pass phrase for the private key
--proxy-ssl-allow-beast Allow security flaw to improve interop
--proxy-sslv2 Use SSLv2
--proxy-sslv3 Use SSLv3
--proxy-tlsv1 Use TLSv1
--proxy-tlsuser USER TLS username
--proxy-tlspassword STRING TLS password
--proxy-tlsauthtype STRING TLS authentication type (default SRP)
All --proxy-foo options are independent from their --foo counterparts,
except --proxy-crlfile which defaults to --crlfile and --proxy-capath
which defaults to --capath.
Curl now also supports %{proxy_ssl_verify_result} --write-out variable,
similar to the existing %{ssl_verify_result} variable.
Supported backends: OpenSSL, GnuTLS, and NSS.
* A SOCKS proxy + HTTP/HTTPS proxy combination:
If both --socks* and --proxy options are given, Curl first connects to
the SOCKS proxy and then connects (through SOCKS) to the HTTP or HTTPS
proxy.
TODO: Update documentation for the new APIs and --proxy-* options.
Look for "Added in 7.XXX" marks.
... to make it less likely that we forget that the function actually
does case insentive compares. Also replaced several invokes of the
function with a plain strcmp when case sensitivity is not an issue (like
comparing with "-").
Curl_select_ready() was the former API that was replaced with
Curl_select_check() a while back and the former arg setup was provided
with a define (in order to leave existing code unmodified).
Now we instead offer SOCKET_READABLE and SOCKET_WRITABLE for the most
common shortcuts where only one socket is checked. They're also more
visibly macros.
Previously, passing a timeout of zero to Curl_expire() was a magic code
for clearing all timeouts for the handle. That is now instead made with
the new Curl_expire_clear() function and thus a 0 timeout is fine to set
and will trigger a timeout ASAP.
This will help removing short delays, in particular notable when doing
HTTP/2.
... as otherwise we could get a 0 which would count as no error and we'd
wrongly continue and could end up segfaulting.

curl_printf.h defines printf to curl_mprintf, etc. This can cause
problems with external headers which may use
__attribute__((format(printf, ...))) markers etc.
To avoid that they cause problems with system includes, we include
curl_printf.h after any system headers. That makes the three last
headers to always be, and we keep them in this order:
curl_printf.h
curl_memory.h
memdebug.h
None of them include system headers, they all do funny #defines.

Fixes#743
The CURLOPT_SSH_PUBLIC_KEYFILE option has been documented to handle
empty strings specially since curl-7_25_0-31-g05a443a but the behavior
was unintentionally removed in curl-7_38_0-47-gfa7d04f.
This commit restores the original behavior and clarifies it in the
documentation that NULL and "" have both the same meaning when passed
to CURLOPT_SSH_PUBLIC_KEYFILE.

They tend to never get updated anyway so they're frequently inaccurate
and we never go back to revisit them anyway. We document issues to work
on properly in KNOWN_BUGS and TODO instead.
... and assign it from the set.fread_func_set pointer in the
Curl_init_CONNECT function. This A) avoids that we have code that
assigns fields in the 'set' struct (which we always knew was bad) and
more importantly B) it makes it impossibly to accidentally leave the
wrong value for when the handle is re-used etc.
Introducing a state-init functionality in multi.c, so that we can set a
specific function to get called when we enter a state. The
Curl_init_CONNECT is thus called when switching to the CONNECT state.
Bug: https://github.com/bagder/curl/issues/346Closes#346
The SSH state machine didn't clear the 'rc' variable appropriately in a
two places which prevented it from looping the way it should. And it
lacked an 'else' statement that made it possible to erroneously get
stuck in the SSH_AUTH_AGENT state.

Closes#357
With many easy handles using the same connection for multiplexing, it is
important we store and keep the transfer-oriented stuff in the
SessionHandle so that callbacks and callback data work fine even when
many easy handles share the same physical connection.
Since we just started make use of free(NULL) in order to simplify code,
this change takes it a step further and:
- converts lots of Curl_safefree() calls to good old free()
- makes Curl_safefree() not check the pointer before free()
The (new) rule of thumb is: if you really want a function call that
frees a pointer and then assigns it to NULL, then use Curl_safefree().
But we will prefer just using free() from now on.
