curl: add variables to --write-out
In particular, these ones can help a user to create its own error
message when one or transfers fail.

writeout: add 'onerror', 'url', 'urlnum', 'exitcode', 'errormsg'

onerror - lets a user only show the rest on non-zero exit codes

url - the input URL used for this transfer

urlnum - the numerical URL counter (0 indexed) for this transfer

exitcode - the numerical exit code for the transfer

errormsg - obvious

Help: Use output FORMAT after completion
Category: verbose
---
Make curl display information on stdout after a completed transfer. The format
is a string that may contain plain text mixed with any number of
variables. The format can be specified as a literal "string", or you can have
curl read the format from a file with "@filename" and to tell curl to read the
format from stdin you write "@-".
The variables present in the output format will be substituted by the value or
text that curl thinks fit, as described below. All variables are specified as
%{variable_name} and to output a normal % you just write them as %%. You can
output a newline by using \\n, a carriage return with \\r and a tab space with
\\t.
The output will be written to standard output, but this can be switched to
standard error by using %{stderr}.
.B NOTE:
The %-symbol is a special symbol in the win32-environment, where all
occurrences of % must be doubled when using this option.
The variables available are:
.RS
.TP 15
.B content_type
The Content-Type of the requested document, if there was any.

--max-redir is met), this variable will show the actual URL a redirect
\fIwould\fP have gone to. (Added in 7.18.2)
.TP
.B remote_ip
The remote IP address of the most recently done connection - can be either

per second.
.TP
.B speed_upload
The average upload speed that curl measured for the complete upload. Bytes per
