cfdc4aca45 RESUME_FROM: clarify what ftp uploads do 
The numerical value passed to CURLOPT_RESUME_FROM for FTP uploads is
interpreted and used as position where to resume the _reading_ of the
local file and it will "blindly" append that data on the remote
file. This was certainly not clear in the docs previously.

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.

5c2b6b2d3e curl_easy_setopt.3: rename stream to userdata 
In some places where the name 'stream' has been used for naming a
function argument that is in fact settable with a setopt() option we now
call that argument 'userdata' to make it more obvious that it is in fact
possible to set by the application.

53e47ca947 KNOWN_BUG: The SOCKET type in Win64 is 64 bits 
The SOCKET type in Win64 is 64 bits large (and thus so is curl_socket_t
on that platform), and long is only 32 bits. It makes it impossible for
curl_easy_getinfo() to return a socket properly with the
CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET option as for all other operating systems.

338553eda3 - Proper handling of STARTTLS on SMTP, taking CURLUSESSL_TRY into account. 
- SMTP falls back to RFC821 HELO when EHLO fails (and SSL is not required).
- Use of true local host name (i.e.: via gethostname()) when available, as default argument to SMTP HELO/EHLO.
- Test case 804 for HELO fallback.

a4a60afabb - Fixed the SMTP compliance by making sure RCPT TO addresses are specified 
properly in angle brackets. Recipients provided with CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT now
  get angle bracket wrapping automatically by libcurl unless the recipient
  starts with an angle bracket as then the app is assumed to deal with that
  properly on its own.

55f1e787f3 We introduce a loop in lib/multi.c around all calls to multi_runsingle() and

CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM all together from the public API.

Daniel Stenberg
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.

296ebf382c - Siegfried Gyuricsko found out that the curl manual said --retry would retry 
on FTP errors in the transient 5xx range. Transient FTP errors are in the
  4xx range. The code itself only tried on 5xx errors that occured _at login_.
  Now the retry code retries on all FTP transfer failures that ended with a
  4xx response.

95362af43c 74. The HTTP spec allows headers to be merged and become comma-separated 
instead of being repeated several times. This also include Authenticate: and
  Proxy-Authenticate: headers and while this hardly every happens in real life
  it will confuse libcurl which does not properly support it for all headers -
  like those Authenticate headers.

2d0aca3b92 73. if a connection is made to a FTP server but the server then just never 
sends the 220 response or otherwise is dead slow, libcurl will not
  acknowledge the connection timeout during that phase but only the "real"
  timeout - which may surprise users as it is probably considered to be the
  connect phase to most people. Brought up (and is being misunderstood) in:

62960f8a42 I think it's worth clarifying that curl DOES NOT validate a given URL more 
than what's absolutely necessary:

curl will do its best to use what you pass to it as a URL. It is not trying to
validate it as a syntactically correct URL by any means but is instead
VERY liberal with what it accepts.

65. When doing FTP over a socks proxy or CONNECT through HTTP proxy and the
  multi interface is used, libcurl will fail if the (passive) TCP connection
  for the data transfer isn't more or less instant as the code does not
  properly wait for the connect to be confirmed. See test case 564 for a first
  shot at a test case.

If the CURLOPT_PORT option is used on an FTP URL like
  "ftp://example.com/file;type=A" the ";type=A" is stripped off.

  I added test case 562 to verify, only to find out that I couldn't repeat
  this bug so I hereby consider it not a bug anymore!

e01b7c1ede - Bug report #2709004 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2709004) by Tim 
Chen pointed out how curl couldn't upload with resume when reading from a
  pipe.

  This ended up with the introduction of a new return code for the
  CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION callback that basically says that the seek failed but
  that libcurl may try to resolve the situation anyway. In our case this means
  libcurl will attempt to instead read that much data from the stream instead
  of seeking and that way curl can now upload with resume when data is read
  from a stream!

875c55d86b - I clarified in the docs that CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION should return 0 on success 
and 1 on fatal errors. Previously it only mentioned non-zero on fatal
  errors. This is a slight change in meaning, but it follows what we've done
  elsewhere before and it opens up for LOTS of more useful return codes
  whenever we can think of them...

Daniel Stenberg
042cc1f69e - David Kierznowski notified us about a security flaw 
(http://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_20090303.html also known as CVE-2009-0037) in
  which previous libcurl versions (by design) can be tricked to access an
  arbitrary local/different file instead of a remote one when
  CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is enabled. This flaw is now fixed in this release
  together this the addition of two new setopt options for controlling this
  new behavior:

  o CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS controls what protocols libcurl is allowed to
  follow to when CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is enabled. By default, this option
  excludes the FILE and SCP protocols and thus you nee to explicitly allow
  them in your app if you really want that behavior.

  o CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS controls what protocol(s) libcurl is allowed to fetch
  using the primary URL option. This is useful if you want to allow a user or
  other outsiders control what URL to pass to libcurl and yet not allow all
  protocols libcurl may have been built to support.
