... 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.
- Use spaces instead of tabs as the delimiter.
Follow up to 7c52b12 which added the entry. The entry had used tabs but
the symbol-scan parser doesn't recognize tabs and would fail the symbol.
curl_mime_encoder() is operational and documented.
curl tool -F option is extended with ";encoder=".
curl tool --libcurl option generates calls to curl_mime_encoder().
New encoder tests 648 & 649.
Test 1404 extended with an encoder specification.
... since people copy and paste code from this example and thus they get
an inefficient POST operation without a good reason and sometimes
without understanding why.
Instead this now returns as much data as possible.
To support telling a string is nul-terminated, symbol CURL_ZERO_TERMINATED
has been introduced.
Documentation updated accordingly.
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,
data size change due to empty lines, etc).
Option -F headers= keyword added to tests.
test1135 disabled until the entry point order change is resolved.
New example smtp-mime.
Examples postit2 and multi-post converted from form API to mime API.

it is a one time *set*, not necessarily a one time use... it can be
called again if the first call failed or just listed the alternatives.
clarify that the available backends are the ones this build supports
plus add some formatting
