* Elaborates on default values of some curl_easy_setopt() options.
* Reminds the user to cast variadic arguments to curl_easy_setopt() to
'void *' where curl internally interprets them as such.
* Clarifies the working of the CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION option for
curl_easy_setopt().
* Fixes typo 'forth' → 'fourth'.
* Elaborates on CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT.
* Adds some missing periods.
* Notes that the return value of curl_version() must not be passed to
free().
Always interprets the pointer passed with the CURLOPT_WRITEDATA or
CURLOPT_READDATA options of curl_easy_setopt() as a void pointer in
order to avoid problems in environments where FILE and void pointers
have non-trivial conversion.
* Adds several links to documentation of library functions which were
missing.
* Marks documentation of deprecated library functions "(deprecated)".
* Removes spurious .html suffixes.
Use Curl_pp_moredata() in Curl_pp_multi_statemach() to check if there is
more data to be received, rather than the socket state, as a task could
hang waiting for more data from the socket itself.
A simple function to test whether the PP is not sending and there are
still more data in its receiver cache. This will be later utilized to:
1) Change Curl_pp_multi_statemach() and Curl_pp_easy_statemach() to
not test socket state and just call user's statemach_act() function
when there are more data to process, because otherwise the task would
just hang, waiting for more data from the socket.
2) Allow PP users to read multiple responses by looping as long as there
are more data available and current phase is not finished.
(Currently needed for correct processing of IMAP SELECT responses.)
The this_url pointer wasn't being initialized, so if strdup() would return
null when copying the filename in a metalink file, then hilarity would
ensue during the cleanup phase. This change was brought to you by clang,
which noticed this and raised a warning.
Schannel and darwinssl use the certificates built into the
OS to do vert verification instead of bundles. darwinssl
is thread-safe. Corrected typos in the NSS docs.
The attempt to use gai_strerror() or alternative function didn't work as
the 'sock_error' field didn't contain the proper error code. But since
this hasn't been reported and thus isn't really a big deal I decided to
just scrap the whole attempt to output the detailed resolver error and
instead remain with just stating that the resolving of the name failed.
It seems older gcc installations (at least) will cause warnings if we
name a variable 'wait'. Now changed to 'block' instead.

Apple made a number of changes to Xcode 4. The SDKs were moved, the entire
Developer folder was moved, and PowerPC support was removed. The script
will now adapt to those changes and should be future-proofed against
additional changes in case Apple moves the Developer folder ever again.
Also, the minimum OS X version compiler option was removed, so that the
framework can be built against the latest SDK but still run in older cats.
... since they're not used by the easy interface really, I wanted to
remove the association. Also, I unified the pingpong statemachine driver
into a single function with a 'wait' argument: Curl_pp_statemach.
A call to Curl_ssl_connect() was accidentally left in when the SSL/TLS
connection layer was reworked in 7.29. Not only would this cause the
connection to block but had the additional overhead of calling the
non-blocking connect a little bit later.
This function was only used twice, both in places where performance
isn't crucial (socks + if2ip). Removing the use of this function removes
the need to have our private version for systems without it == reduced
amount of code.
Also, in the SOCKS case it is clearly better to fail gracefully rather
than to truncate the results.
This work was triggered by a bug report on the strcal prototype in
strequal.h.
strlcat was added in commit db70cd28 in February 2001!

Version 7.29.0 uses Makefiles generated with a newer version of the
autotools than the previous 7.28.1. These Makefiles try to install
e.g. header files by calling install-sh with multiple source files as
arguments. The bundled install-sh is to old and does not support this.
The problem only occurs, if install-sh is actually being used, ie. the
platform install executable is to old or not usable. Example: Solaris
10.
The files install-sh and mkinstalldirs are now updated with the automake
1.11.3 versions. A better fix might be to completely remove them from
git and force the files to be added/created during buildconf.
