d95b8e0627 Revert "connect.c/ftp.c: Fixed dereferencing pointer breakin strict-aliasing"
This reverts commit 9c94236e6c.

It didn't server its purpose, so lets go back to long-time working code.

9c94236e6c connect.c/ftp.c: Fixed dereferencing pointer breakin strict-aliasing
Fixed warning: dereferencing pointer does break strict-aliasing rules
by using a union instead of separate pointer variables.
Internal union sockaddr_u could probably be moved to generic header.
Thanks to Paul Howarth for the hint about using unions for this.

Important for winbuild: Separate declaration of sockaddr_u pointer.
The pointer variable *sock cannot be declared and initialized right
after the union declaration. Therefore it has to be a separate statement.

130fac6c16 timeleft_accept: ack global timeout, moved to ftp.c
First off the timeout for accepting a server connect back must of course
respect a global timeout. Then the timeleft function is only used by ftp

dfdac61522 non-blocking active FTP: cleanup multi state usage
Backpedaled out the funny double-change of state in the multi state
machine by adding a new argument to the do_more() function to signal
completion. This way it can remain in the DO_MORE state properly until
done. Long term, the entire DO_MORE logic should be moved into the FTP
code and be hidden from the multi code as the logic is only used for
FTP.

c834213ad5 FTP: perform active connections non-blocking
1- Two new error codes are introduced.

CURLE_FTP_ACCEPT_FAILED to be set whenever ACCEPTing fails because of
FTP server connected.

CURLE_FTP_ACCEPT_TIMEOUT to be set whenever ACCEPTing timeouts.

Neither of these errors are considered fatal and control connection
remains OK because it could just be a firewall blocking server to
connect to the client.

2- One new setopt option was introduced.

CURLOPT_ACCEPTTIMEOUT_MS

It sets the maximum amount of time FTP client is going to wait for a
server to connect. Internal default accept timeout is 60 seconds.

d5b5f64bce FTP: close callback fix
Keep track of which sockets that are the result of accept() calls and
refuse to call the closesocket callback for those sockets. Test case 596

times as the closed socket callback for active FTP connections.

088ba97a24 FTP: call opensocket callback properly
When the new socket is created for an active connection, it is now done
using the open socket callback.

Test case 596 was modified to run fine, although it hides the fact that
the close callback is still called too many times, as it also gets
called for closing sockets that were created with accept().

2c905fd1f8 query-part: ignore the URI part for given protocols
By setting PROTOPT_NOURLQUERY in the protocol handler struct, the
protocol will get the "query part" of the URL cut off before the data is
handled by the protocol-specific code. This makes libcurl adhere to
RFC3986 section 2.2.

Test 1220 is added to verify a file:// URL with query-part.

e3166df1bb ftp PORT: don't hang if bind() fails
When the user requests PORT with a specific port or port range, the code

93e57d0628 rename ftp_ssl: the struct field is used for many protocols
Now called 'use_ssl' instead, which better matches the current CURLOPT
name and since the option is used for all pingpong protocols (at least)
it makes sense to not use 'ftp' in the name.

d7934b8bd4 curl_multi_fdset: correct fdset with FTP PORT use
After a PORT has been issued, and the multi handle would switch to the
CURLM_STATE_DO_MORE state (which is unique for FTP), libcurl would
return the wrong fdset to wait for when curl_multi_fdset() is
called. The code would blindly assume that it was waiting for a connect
of the second connection, while that isn't true immediately after the
PORT command.

Also, the function multi.c:domore_getsock() was highly FTP-centric and
therefore ugly to keep in protocol-agnostic code. I solved this problem
by introducing a new function pointer in the Curl_handler struct called
domore_getsock() which is only called during the DOMORE state for
protocols that set that pointer.

The new ftp.c:ftp_domore_getsock() function now returns fdset info about
the control connection's command/response handling while such a state is
in use, and goes over to waiting for a writable second connection first
once the commands are done.

The original problem could be seen by running test 525 and checking the
time stamps in the FTP server log. I can verify that this fix at least
fixes this problem.

b998d95b4d FTP: fix proxy connect race condition
When using the multi interface, a SOCKS proxy, and a connection that
wouldn't immediately consider itself connected (which my Linux tests do
by default), libcurl would be tricked into doing _two_ connects to the
SOCKS proxy when it setup the data connection and then of course the
second attempt would fail miserably and cause error.

This problem is a regression that was introduced by commit
4a42e5cdaa that was introduced in the 7.21.7 release.

01f05d0c75 return code cleanup: build, init and run-time errors
Stop the abuse of CURLE_FAILED_INIT as return code for things not being
init related by introducing two new return codes:

CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION

CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN replaces return code 4 that has been obsoleted for
several years. It is used for returning error when something is
attempted to be used but the feature/option was not enabled or
explictitly disabled at build-time. Getting this error mostly means that
libcurl needs to be rebuilt.

CURLE_FAILED_INIT is now saved and used strictly for init
failures. Getting this problem means something went seriously wrong,
like a resource shortage or similar.

CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION is the option formerly known as
CURLE_UNKNOWN_TELNET_OPTION (and the old name is still present,
separately defined to be removed in a very distant future). This error
code is meant to be used to return when an option is given to libcurl
that isn't known. This problem would mostly indicate a problem in the
program that uses libcurl.

set of KRB4 values.

The PROTOPT_* defines were moved up to just below the struct definition
within which they are used.

8831000bc0 protocol handler: added flags field
The protocol handler struct got a 'flags' field for special information
and characteristics of the given protocol.

This now enables us to move away central protocol information such as
CLOSEACTION and DUALCHANNEL from single defines in a central place, out
to each protocol's definition. It also made us stop abusing the protocol
field for other info than the protocol, and we could start cleaning up
other protocol-specific things by adding flags bits to set in the
handler struct.

The "protocol" field connectdata struct was removed as well and the code
now refers directly to the conn->handler->protocol field instead. To
make things work properly, the code now always store a conn->given
pointer that points out the original handler struct so that the code can
learn details from the original protocol even if conn->handler is
modified along the way - for example when switching to go over a HTTP
proxy.

HTTP proxy, the protocol is HTTP but the URL was handled by the FTP code

02892e4fd8 FTP quote commands prefixed with '*' now can fail without aborting
Prefixing the FTP quote commands with an asterisk really only
worked for the postquote actions. This is now fixed and test case
227 has been extended to verify.

13ac29382f - Made the pingpong timeout code properly deal with the response timeout AND
the global timeout if set. Also, as was reported in the bug report #2956437
  by Ryan Chan, the time stamp to use as basis for the per command timeout was
  not set properly in the DONE phase for FTP (and not for SMTP) so I fixed
  that just now. This was a regression compared to 7.19.7 due to the
  conversion of FTP code over to the generic pingpong concepts.

a5ca3f1754 - David McCreedy brought a fix and a new test case (129) to make libcurl work
again when downloading files over FTP using ASCII and it turns out that the
  final size of the file is not the same as the initial size the server
  reported. This is very common since servers don't take the newline
  conversions into account.

605bbfc4c0 - Ingmar Runge enhanced libcurl's FTP engine to support the PRET command. This
command is a special "hack" used by the drftpd server, but even though it is
  a custom extension I've deemed it fine to add to libcurl since this server
  seems to survive and people keep using it and want libcurl to support
  it. The new libcurl option is named CURLOPT_FTP_USE_PRET, and it is also
  usable from the curl tool with --ftp-pret. Using this option on a server
  that doesn't support this command will make libcurl fail.
