6e4835c795 CURLOPT_INTERFACE: avoid resolving interfaces names
Do not try to resolve interfaces names via DNS by recognizing interface
names in a few ways.  If the interface option argument has a prefix of
"if!" then treat the argument as only an interface.  Similarly, if the
interface argument is the name of an interface (even if it does not have
an IP address assigned), treat it as an interface name.  Finally, if the
interface argument is prefixed by "host!" treat it as a hostname that
must be resolved by /etc/hosts or DNS.

These changes allow a client using the multi interfaces to avoid
blocking on name resolution if the interface loses its IP address or
disappears.

361cd03d58 CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT: default is 300 seconds
If the option is set to 0, the default timeout will be used - which in
modern libcurl versions equals 300 seconds (== 5 minutes).

7e4daaf908 progress function example: include timed interval
Adds a timer based off of CURLINFO_TOTAL_TIME that is used to perform
certain actions after a minimum amount of time has passed using the
progress function. As a consequence the curl handle is now also passed
into the progress function. Progress example now also includes an
example of how to retreive the TOTAL_TIME and print it out.

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().

4403e82f32 symbols.pl: provide LIBCURL_HAS macro for apps
Experience has shown that the symbols-in-versions file is very useful to
applications that want to build with a wide range of libcurl versions.
It is however easy to get it wrong and the source gets a bit messy with
all the fixed numerical comparisions.

The point of this script is to provide an easy-to-use macro for libcurl-
using applications to do preprocessor checks for specific libcurl
defines, and yet make the code clearly show what the macro is used for.

2cbe885c1a CMake: improve library search, implement install.
Improved library search by check_function_exists_concat() macro:
it does not revert the list of libraries any more.

Improved OpenSSL library search: first find zlib, then search for
openssl libraries that may depend on zlib.

For Unix: openssl libraries can now be detected in nonstandard
locations. Supply CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH to CMake on command line.

Added installation capability (very basic one yet).

8e4fb01e64 transfer-encoding: added new option and cmdline
Added CURLOPT_TRANSFER_ENCODING as the option to set to request Transfer
Encoding in HTTP requests (if built zlib enabled). I also renamed
CURLOPT_ENCODING to CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING (while keeping the old name
around) to reduce the confusion when we have to encoding options for
HTTP.

--tr-encoding is now the new command line option for curl to request
this, and thus I updated the test cases accordingly.

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.

806dbb022b nss: do not ignore value of CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER
When NSS-powered libcurl connected to a SSL server with
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER equal to zero, NSS remembered that the peer
certificate was accepted by libcurl and did not ask the second time when
connecting to the same server with CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER equal to one.

This patch turns off the SSL session cache for the particular SSL socket
if peer verification is disabled.  In order to avoid any performance
impact, the peer verification is completely skipped in that case, which
makes it even faster than before.

3cffcba3d0 CURLE_TLSAUTH_FAILED: removed
On second thought, I think CURLE_TLSAUTH_FAILED should be eliminated. It
was only being raised when an internal error occurred while allocating
or setting the GnuTLS SRP client credentials struct. For TLS
authentication failures, the general CURLE_SSL_CONNECT_ERROR seems
appropriate; its error string already includes "passwords" as a possible
cause. Having a separate TLS auth error code might also cause people to
think that a TLS auth failure means the wrong username or password was
entered, when it could also be a sign of a man-in-the-middle attack.

This is a meta symbol. OR this value together with a single specific

For example you can use CURLAUTH_DIGEST|CURLAUTH_ONLY to make libcurl
first probe for what method to use, but yet only consider Digest to be
acceptable.

Using _only_ CURLAUTH_DIGEST without the CURLAUTH_ONLY field, will make
libcurl explicitly use Digest right away and not do any probing.

9bce615f46 libcurl.m4: mention argument is PREFIX
The macro provides a --with-libcurl option that expects a PREFIX to be
specified and not actually a "directory" in which libcurl will be found.
This now spells that out more clearly.

5fb4279ec7 multi & hiper examples: updates and cleanups
all multi and hiper examples:

* don't loop curl_multi_perform calls, that was <7.20.0 style, currently
  the exported multi functions will not return CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM

all hiper examples:
* renamed check_run_count to check_multi_info
* don't  compare current running handle count with previous value, this
  was the wrong way to check for finished requests, simply call
  curl_multi_info_read
* it's also safe to call curl_multi_remove_handle inside the
  curl_multi_info_read loop.

ghiper.c:
* replaced curl_multi_socket (that function is marked as obsolete) calls
  with curl_multi_socket_action calls (as in hiperfifo.c and
  evhiperfifo.c)

ghiper.c and evhiperfifo.c:
* be smart as hiperfifo.c, don't do uncessary curl_multi_* calls in
  new_conn and main

19f45eaa79 duphandle: use ares_dup()
curl_easy_duphandle() was not properly duping the ares channel. The
ares_dup() function was introduced in c-ares 1.6.0 so by starting to use
this function we also raise the bar and require c-ares >= 1.6.0
(released Dec 9, 2008) for such builds.

2. Remove 2 unnecessary includes.

3. Remove the myrealloc(). Initialize chunk.memory with malloc() instead
   of NULL. The comments for these two parts contradicted each other.

4. Handle out of memory from realloc() instead of continuing.

5. Print a brief status message at the end.

232ad6549a multi: support timeouts
Curl_expire() is now expanded to hold a list of timeouts for each easy
handle. Only the closest in time will be the one used as the primary
timeout for the handle and will be used for the splay tree (which sorts
and lists all handles within the multi handle).

When the main timeout has triggered/expired, the next timeout in time
that is kept in the list will be moved to the main timeout position and
used as the key to splay with. This way, all timeouts that are set with
Curl_expire() internally will end up as a proper timeout. Previously any
Curl_expire() that set a _later_ timeout than what was already set was
just silently ignored and thus missed.

Setting Curl_expire() with timeout 0 (zero) will cancel all previously
added timeouts.

Corrects known bug #62.

command is a special "hack" used by the drftpd server, but even though it is

  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.
