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.
The secure connection with the proxy requires its own set of the usual
SSL/TLS-related options (their descriptions need polishing):
--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 given file
--proxy-insecure Allow connections to SSL sites without 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 defaults to --crlfile and --proxy-capath defaults to --capath.
Curl now also supports %{proxy_ssl_verify_result} --write-out variable,
similar to the existing %{ssl_verify_result} variable.
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.
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.
Error: CLANG_WARNING:

Also added some more info message for the connection re-use function to
make it clearer when connections are not re-used.
... from the connection struct. The stream one being the 'struct HTTP'
which is kept in the SessionHandle struct (easy handle).
lookup streams for incoming frames in the stream hash, hashing is based
on the stream id and we get the SessionHandle for the incoming stream
that way.
All the existing Curl_bundle* functions were only ever used from within
the conncache.c file, so I moved them over and made them static (and
removed the Curl_ prefix).
When doing HTTP requests Negotiate authenticated, the entire connnection
may become authenticated and not just the specific HTTP request which is
otherwise how HTTP works, as Negotiate can basically use NTLM under the
hood. curl was not adhering to this fact but would assume that such
requests would also be authenticated per request.
CVE-2015-3148
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_20150422B.html

This header file must be included after all header files except
memdebug.h, as it does similar memory function redefinitions and can be
similarly affected by conflicting definitions in system or dependent
library headers.
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.
...after the method line:
"Since the Host field-value is critical information for handling a
request, a user agent SHOULD generate Host as the first header field
following the request-line." / RFC 7230 section 5.4
Additionally, this will also make libcurl ignore multiple specified
custom Host: headers and only use the first one. Test 1121 has been
updated accordingly

SSLeay was the name of the library that was subsequently turned into
OpenSSL many moons ago (1999). curl does not work with the old SSLeay
library since years. This is now reflected by only using USE_OPENSSL in
code that depends on OpenSSL.
Sending NTLM/Negotiate header again after successful authentication
breaks the connection with certain Proxies and request types (POST to MS
Forefront).
This commit disables pipelining for HTTP/2 or upgraded connections. For
HTTP/2, we do not support multiplexing. In general, requests cannot be
pipelined in an upgraded connection, since it is now different protocol.
Previously if HTTP/2 traffic is appended to HTTP Upgrade response header
(thus they are in the same buffer), the trailing HTTP/2 traffic is not
processed and lost. The appended data is most likely SETTINGS frame.
If it is lost, nghttp2 library complains server does not obey the HTTP/2
protocol and issues GOAWAY frame and curl eventually drops connection.
This commit fixes this problem and now trailing data is processed.
To provide consistent behaviour between the various HTTP authentication
functions use CURLcode based error codes for Curl_input_digest()
especially as the calling code doesn't use the specific error code just
that it failed.
HTTP 1.1 is clearly specified to only allow three digit response codes,
and libcurl used sscanf("%3d") for that purpose. This made libcurl
support smaller numbers but not larger. It does now, but we will not
make any specific promises nor document this further since it is going
outside of what HTTP is.

... for the local variable name in functions holding the return
code. Using the same name universally makes code easier to read and
follow.
Also, unify code for checking for CURLcode errors with:
if(result) or if(!result)
instead of
if(result == CURLE_OK), if(CURLE_OK == result) or if(result != CURLE_OK)
Historically the default "unknown" value for progress.size_dl and
progress.size_ul has been zero, since these values are initialized
implicitly by the calloc that allocates the curl handle that these
variables are a part of. Users of curl that install progress
callbacks may expect these values to always be >= 0.
Currently it is possible for progress.size_dl and progress.size_ul
to by set to a value of -1, if Curl_pgrsSetDownloadSize() or
Curl_pgrsSetUploadSize() are passed a "size" of -1 (which a few
places currently do, and a following patch will add more). So
lets update Curl_pgrsSetDownloadSize() and Curl_pgrsSetUploadSize()
so they make sure that these variables always contain a value that
is >= 0.
Updates test579 and test599.
