When building the code using LLVM Clang without NGHTTP2, I was getting
this warning:
../lib/http.h:155:1: warning: empty struct is a GNU extension [-Wgnu]
Placing a dummy variable into the data structure silenced the warning.
Recent OpenSSL uses user interface abstraction to negotiate access to
private keys in the cryprographical engines. An OpenSSL application is
expected to implement the user interface. Otherwise a default one
provided by OpenSSL (interactive standard I/O) will be used and the
aplication will have no way how to pass a password to the engine.

Using the first little merge of nghttp2 into libcurl, I stumbeled on the

XOAUTH2 would be selected in preference to LOGIN and PLAIN if the IMAP
or SMTP server advertised support for it even though a user's password
was supplied but bearer token wasn't.
Modified the selection logic so that XOAUTH2 will only be selected if
the server supports it and A) The curl user/libcurl programmer has
specifically asked for XOAUTH via the ;AUTH=XOAUTH login option or 2)
The bearer token is specified. Obviously if XOAUTH is asked for via
the login option but no token is specified the user will receive a
authentication failure which makes more sense than no known
authentication mechanisms supported!

When waiting for a 100-continue response from the server, the
Curl_readwrite() will refuse to run if called until the timeout has been

We timeout code in multi_socket() allows code to run slightly before the

executed but refused in Curl_readwrite() and then the application would
just sit idling forever.

I build curl.exe (using MingW) with '-DCURLDEBUG' and by importing from
libcurl.dll. Which means the new curl_easy_perform_ev() must be
exported from libcurl.dll.
Doing curl_multi_add_handle() on an easy handle that is already added to
a multi handle now returns this error code. It previously returned
CURLM_BAD_EASY_HANDLE for this condition.
The closure_handle is "owned" by the multi handle and it is
unconditional so the setting up of it should be in the Curl_multi_handle
function rather than curl_multi_add_handle.
This function is meant to work *exactly* as curl_easy_perform() but will
use the event-based libcurl API internally instead of
curl_multi_perform(). To avoid relying on an actual event-based library
and to not use non-portable functions (like epoll or similar), there's a
rather inefficient emulation layer implemented on top of Curl_poll()
instead.
There's currently some convenience logging done in curl_easy_perform_ev
which helps when tracking down problems. They may be suitable to remove
or change once things seem to be fine enough.
curl has a new --test-event option when built with debug enabled that
then uses curl_easy_perform_ev() instead of curl_easy_perform(). If
built without debug, using --test-event will only output a warning
message.
NOTE: curl_easy_perform_ev() is not part if the public API on purpose.
It is only present in debug builds of libcurl and MUST NOT be considered
stable even then. Use it for libcurl-testing purposes only.
runtests.pl now features an -e command line option that makes it use
--test-event for all curl command line tests. The man page is updated.
libcurl quietly truncates usernames, passwords, and options from
before an '@' sign in a URL to 255 (= MAX_CURL_PASSWORD_LENGTH - 1)
characters to fit in fixed-size buffers on the stack. Allocate a
buffer large enough to fit the parsed fields on the fly instead to
support longer passwords.
After this change, there are no more uses of MAX_CURL_OPTIONS_LENGTH
left, so stop defining that constant while at it. The hardcoded max
username and password length constants, on the other hand, are still
used in HTTP proxy credential handling (which this patch doesn't
touch).

Instead of nesting "if(success)" blocks and leaving the reader in
suspense about what happens in the !success case, deal with failure
cases early, usually with a simple goto to clean up and return from
the function.
No functional change intended. The main effect is to decrease the
indentation of this function slightly.
libcurl truncates usernames, passwords, and options set with
curl_easy_setopt to 255 (= MAX_CURL_PASSWORD_LENGTH - 1) characters.
This doesn't affect the return value from curl_easy_setopt(), so from
the caller's point of view, there is no sign anything strange has
happened, except that authentication fails.
For example:
# Prepare a long (300-char) password.
s=0123456789; s=$s$s$s$s$s$s$s$s$s$s; s=$s$s$s;
# Start a server.
nc -l -p 8888 | tee out & pid=$!
# Tell curl to pass the password to the server.
curl --user me:$s http://localhost:8888 & sleep 1; kill $pid
# Extract the password.
userpass=$(
awk '/Authorization: Basic/ {print $3}' <out |
tr -d '\r' |
base64 -d
)
password=${userpass#me:}
echo ${#password}
Expected result: 300
Actual result: 255
The fix is simple: allocate appropriately sized buffers on the heap
instead of trying to squeeze the provided values into fixed-size
on-stack buffers.

libcurl truncates usernames and passwords it reads from .netrc to
LOGINSIZE and PASSWORDSIZE (64) characters without any indication to
the user, to ensure the values returned from Curl_parsenetrc fit in a
caller-provided buffer.
Fix the interface by passing back dynamically allocated buffers
allocated to fit the user's input. The parser still relies on a
256-character buffer to read each line, though.
So now you can include an ~246-character password in your .netrc,
instead of the previous limit of 63 characters.

Instead of remembering before each "return" statement which temporary
allocations, if any, need to be freed, take care to set pointers to
NULL when no longer needed and use a goto to a common block to exit
the function and free all temporaries.
No functional change intended. Currently the only temporary buffer in
this function is "proxy" which is already correctly freed when
appropriate, but there will be more soon.
Use appropriately sized buffers on the heap instead of fixed-size
buffers on the stack, to allow for longer usernames and passwords.
Callers never pass anything longer than MAX_CURL_USER_LENGTH (resp.
MAX_CURL_PASSWORD_LENGTH), so no functional change inteded yet.
This makes the socket callback get called with the proper bitmask as
otherwise the application could be left hanging waiting for reading on
an upload connection!

With everything being struct SessionHandle pointers now, this rename
makes multi.c use the library-wide practise of calling that pointer
'data' instead of the previously used 'easy'.
Moved Curl_easy_addmulti() from easy.c to multi.c, renamed it to
easy_addmulti and made it static.
Removed Curl_easy_initHandleData() and uses of it since it was emptied
in commit cdda92ab67b47d74a.
All protocol handler structs are now opaque (void *) in the
SessionHandle struct and moved in the request-specific sub-struct
'SingleRequest'. The intension is to keep the protocol specific
knowledge in their own dedicated source files [protocol].c etc.
There's some "leakage" where this policy is violated, to be addressed at
a later point in time.
1 - always allocate the struct in protocol->setup_connection. Some
protocol handlers had to get this function added.
2 - always free at the end of a request. This is also an attempt to keep
less memory in the handle after it is completed.
CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE broke in commit c43127414d (been
broken since the libcurl 7.29.0 release). While this option has been
documented as deprecated for almost a decade and nobody even reported
this bug, it should remain functional.
Added test case 1512 to verify
The previous naming scheme ftp_state_post_XXXX() wasn't really helpful
as it wasn't always immediately after 'xxxx' and it wasn't easy to
understand what it does based on such a name.
This new one is instead ftp_state_yyyy() where yyyy describes what it
does or sends.
This is a regression as this logic used to work. It isn't clear when it
broke, but I'm assuming in 7.28.0 when we went all-multi internally.
This likely never worked with the multi interface. As the failed
connection is detected once the multi state has reached DO_MORE, the
Curl_do_more() function was now expanded somewhat so that the
ftp_do_more() function can request to go "back" to the previous state
when it makes another attempt - using PASV.
Added test case 1233 to verify this fix. It has the little issue that it
assumes no service is listening/accepting connections on port 1...

For some reason, OS X 10.5's GCC suddenly stopped working correctly with
macros that change MD5_Init etc. in the code to CC_MD5_Init etc., so I
worked around this by removing use of the macros and inserting static
functions that just call CommonCrypto's implementations of the functions
instead.
This changes the previous check for untrusted certs to a check for
certs explicitely marked as trusted.
The change is backward-compatible (tested with certdata.txt v1.80).
The internal function that's used to detect known file extensions for
the default Content-Type got the the wrong pointer passed in when
CURLFORM_BUFFER + CURLFORM_BUFFERPTR were used. This had the effect that
strlen() would be used which could lead to an out-of-bounds read (and
thus segfault). In most cases it would only lead to it not finding or
using the correct default content-type.
It also showed that test 554 and test 587 were testing for the
previous/wrong behavior and now they're updated as well.

The motivation for having a separate struct that keep track of an easy
handle when using the multi handle was removed when we switched to
always using the multi interface internally. Now they were just two
separate struct that was always allocated for each easy handle.
This first step just moves the Curl_one_easy struct members into the
SessionHandle struct and hides this somehow (== keeps the source code
changes to a minimum) by defining Curl_one_easy to SessionHandle
The biggest changes in this commit are:
1 - the linked list of easy handles had to be changed somewhat due
to the new struct layout. This made the main linked list pointer
get renamed to 'easyp' and there's also a new pointer to the last
node, called easylp. It is no longer circular but ends with ->next
pointing to NULL. New nodes are still added last.
2 - easy->state is now called easy->mstate to avoid name collision
(This doesn't need to appear in the release notes.) I noticed a few places
where infof() was called, and there should've been an LF at the end of the
string, but there wasn't.
It turns out Snow Leopard not only has SecItemCopyMatching() defined in
a header not included by the omnibus header, but it won't work for our

instead if the user is building under, or running under, Snow Leopard.

CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION is now the preferred progress callback function
and CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION is considered deprecated.
This new callback uses pure 'curl_off_t' arguments to pass on full
resolution sizes. It otherwise retains the same characteristics: the
same call rate, the same meanings for the arguments and the return code
is used the same way.
The progressfunc.c example is updated to show how to use the new
callback for newer libcurls while supporting the older one if built with
an older libcurl or even built with a newer libcurl while running with
an older.
This reverts commit 7ed25cc, reinstating commit 8ec2cb5.
As of 18-jul-2013 we still do have code in libcurl that makes use of these
memory functions. Commit 8ec2cb5 comment still applies and is yet valid.
These memory functions are solely used in Windows builds, so all related
code is protected with '#ifdef WIN32' preprocessor conditional compilation
directives.
Specifically, wcsdup() _wcsdup() are used when building a Windows target with
UNICODE and USE_WINDOWS_SSPI preprocessor symbols defined. This is the case
when building a Windows UNICODE target with Windows native SSL/TLS support
enabled.
Realizing that wcsdup() _wcsdup() are used is a bit tricky given that usage
of these is hidden behind _tcsdup() which is MS way of dealing with code
that must tolerate UNICODE and non-UNICODE compilation. Additionally, MS
header files and those compatible from other compilers use this preprocessor
conditional compilation directive in order to select at compilation time
whether 'wide' or 'ansi' MS API functions are used.
Without this code, Windows build targets with Windows native SSL/TLS support
enabled and MemoryTracking support enabled misbehave in tracking memory usage,
regardless of being a UNICODE enabled build or not.

I just noticed that OS X no longer supports SSLv2. Other TLS engines return
an error if the requested protocol isn't supported by the underlying
engine, so we do that now for SSLv2 if the framework returns an error
when trying to turn on SSLv2 support. (Note: As always, SSLv2 support is
only enabled in curl when starting the app with the -2 argument; it's off
by default. SSLv2 is really old and insecure.)
When doing multi-part formposts, libcurl used a pseudo-random value that
was seeded with time(). This turns out to be bad for users who formpost
data that is provided with users who then can guess how the boundary
string will look like and then they can forge a different formpost part
and trick the receiver.
My advice to such implementors is (still even after this change) to not
rely on the boundary strings being cryptographically strong. Fix your
code and logic to not depend on them that much!
I moved the Curl_rand() function into the sslgen.c source file now to be
able to take advantage of the SSL library's random function if it
provides one. If not, try to use the RANDOM_FILE for seeding and as a
last resort keep the old logic, just modified to also add microseconds
which makes it harder to properly guess the exact seed.
The formboundary() function in formdata.c is now using 64 bit entropy
for the boundary and therefore the string of dashes was reduced by 4
letters and there are 16 hex digits following it. The total length is
thus still the same.

report the socket closed / connection finished. Since we have cases
where the multi connection is only used once, this can pose a problem
for us. I've read that if another connection was to come in, curl would
see the socket as bad and attempt to close it at that time -
unfortunately, this does not work for us.
I found that in specific situations, if SSL_write returns 0, curl did
not recognize the socket as closed (or errored out) and did not report
it to the application. I believe we need to change the code slightly, to
check if ssl_write returns 0. If so, treat it as an error - the same as
a negative return code.
For OpenSSL - the ssl_write documentation is here:
http://www.openssl.org/docs/ssl/SSL_write.html
1 - don't skip host names with a colon in them in an attempt to bail out
on HTTP headers in the cookie file parser. It was only a shortcut anyway
and trying to parse a file with HTTP headers will still be handled, only
slightly slower.
2 - don't skip domain names based on number of dots. The original
netscape cookie spec had this oddity mentioned and while our code
decreased the check to only check for two, the existing cookie spec has
no such dot counting required.

I found a bug which cURL sends cookies to the path not to aim at.
For example:
- cURL sends a request to http://example.fake/hoge/
- server returns cookie which with path=/hoge;
the point is there is NOT the '/' end of path string.
- cURL sends a request to http://example.fake/hogege/ with the cookie.
The reason for this old "feature" is because that behavior is what is
described in the original netscape cookie spec:
http://curl.haxx.se/rfc/cookie_spec.html
The current cookie spec (RFC6265) clarifies the situation:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265#section-5.2.4
This reverts commit 8ec2cb5544.
We don't have any code anywhere in libcurl (or the curl tool) that use
wcsdup so there's no such memory use to track. It seems to cause mild
problems with the Borland compiler though that we may avoid by reverting
this change again.

If the mail sent during the transfer contains a terminating <CRLF> then
we should not send the first <CRLF> of the EOB as specified in RFC-5321.
Additionally don't send the <CRLF> if there is "no mail data" as the
DATA command already includes it.
The code within #ifdef HAVE_SOCKADDR_IN6_SIN6_SCOPE_ID wrongly had two
closing braces when it should only have one, so builds without that

The curl command line utility would display the the completed progress

Removed the hard returns from imap and pop3 by using the same style for
sending the authentication string as smtp. Moved the "Other mechanisms
not supported" check in smtp to match that of imap and pop3 to provide
consistency between the three email protocols.
Users using the Secure Transport (darwinssl) back-end can now use a
certificate and private key to authenticate with a site using TLS. Because
Apple's security system is based around the keychain and does not have any
non-public function to create a SecIdentityRef data structure from data
loaded outside of the Keychain, the certificate and private key have to be
loaded into the Keychain first (using the certtool command line tool or
the Security framework's C API) before we can find it and use it.
In addition to checking for the SASL-IR capability the user can override
the sending of the client's initial response in the AUTHENTICATION
command with the use of CURLOPT_SASL_IR should the server erroneously
not report SASL-IR when it does support it.
Updated the default behaviour of sending the client's initial response in the AUTH
command to not send it and added support for CURLOPT_SASL_IR to allow the user to
specify including the response.

By introducing an internal alternative to curl_multi_init() that accepts
parameters to set the hash sizes, easy handles will now use tiny socket
and connection hash tables since it will only ever add a single easy
handle to that multi handle.
This decreased the number mallocs in test 40 (which is a rather simple
and typical easy interface use case) from 1142 to 138. The maximum
amount of memory allocated used went down from 118969 to 78805.
When connecting back to an FTP server after having sent PASV/EPSV,
libcurl sometimes didn't use the proxy properly even though the proxy

environment variable.
Added test case 711 to verify (based on 707 which uses --socks5). Also
added test712 to verify another variation of setting the proxy: with

... in order to prevent an artificial timeout event based on stale
speed-check data from a previous network transfer. This commit fixes
a regression caused by 9dd85bced5.
Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/906031
Fixed an issue in parse_proxy(), introduced in commit 11332577b3,
where an empty username or password (For example: http://:@example.com)
would cause a crash.
There is no need to perform separate clearing of data if a NULL option
pointer is passed in. Instead this operation can be performed by simply
not calling parse_login_details() and letting the rest of the code do
the work.
setstropt_userpwd() was calling setstropt() in commit fddb7b44a7 to
set each of the login details which would duplicate the strings and
subsequently cause a memory leak.
In addition to parsing the optional login options from the URL, added
support for parsing them from CURLOPT_USERPWD, to allow the following
supported command line:
--user username:password;options
Added bounds checking when searching for the separator characters within
the login string as this string may not be NULL terminated (For example
it is the login part of a URL). We do this in preference to allocating a
new string to copy the login details into which could then be passed to
parse_login_details() for performance reasons.
As well as parsing the username and password from the URL, added support
for parsing the optional options part from the login details, to allow
the following supported URL format:
schema://username:password;options@example.com/path?q=foobar
This will only be used by IMAP, POP3 and SMTP at present but any
protocol that may be given login options in the URL will be able to
add support for them.
...instead of the 220 we otherwise expect.
Made the ftpserver.pl support sending a custom "welcome" and then
created test 1219 to verify this fix with such a 230 welcome.

The OpenSSL pipe wrote to the final CA bundle file, but the encoded PEM

I noticed that aria2's SecureTransport code disables insecure ciphers such
as NULL, anonymous, IDEA, and weak-key ciphers used by SSLv3 and later.
That's a good idea, and now we do the same thing in order to prevent curl
from accessing a "secure" site that only negotiates insecure ciphersuites.
Previously it only compared credentials if the requested needle
connection wasn't using a proxy. This caused NTLM authentication
failures when using proxies as the authentication code wasn't send on
the connection where the challenge arrived.

Since qsort implementations vary with regards to handling the order
of similiar elements, this change makes the internal sort function
more deterministic by comparing path length first, then domain length
and finally the cookie name. Spotted with testcase 62 on Windows.
When doing PORT and upload (STOR), this function needs to extract the
file descriptor for both connections so that it will respond immediately
when the server eventually connects back.
This flaw caused active connections to become unnecessary slow but they
would still often work due to the normal polling on a timeout. The bug
also would not occur if the server connected back very fast, like when
testing on local networks.

I am using curl_easy_setopt(CURLOPT_INTERFACE, "if!something") to force
transfers to use a particular interface but the transfer fails with
CURLE_INTERFACE_FAILED, "Failed binding local connection end" if the
interface I specify has no IPv6 address. The cause is as follows:
The remote hostname resolves successfully and has an IPv6 address and an
IPv4 address.
cURL attempts to connect to the IPv6 address first.
bindlocal (in lib/connect.c) fails because Curl_if2ip cannot find an
IPv6 address on the interface.
This is a fatal error in singleipconnect()
This change will make cURL try the next IP address in the list.
Also included are two changes related to IPv6 address scope:
- Filter the choice of address in Curl_if2ip to only consider addresses
with the same scope ID as the connection address (mismatched scope for
local and remote address does not result in a working connection).
- bindlocal was ignoring the scope ID of addresses returned by
Curl_if2ip . Now it uses them.

The Microsoft knowledge-base article
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/823764 describes how to use SNDBUF to
overcome a performance shortcoming in winsock, but it doesn't apply to
Windows Vista and later versions. If the described SNDBUF magic is
applied when running on those more recent Windows versions, it seems to
instead have the reversed effect in many cases and thus make libcurl
perform less good on those systems.
This fix thus adds a run-time version-check that does the SNDBUF magic
conditionally depending if it is deemed necessary or not.

As of 25-mar-2013 wcsdup() _wcsdup() and _tcsdup() are only used in
WIN32 specific code, so tracking of these has not been extended for
other build targets. Without this fix, memory tracking system on
WIN32 builds, when using these functions, would provide misleading
results.
In order to properly extend this support for all targets curl.h
would have to define curl_wcsdup_callback prototype and consequently
wchar_t should be visible before that in curl.h. IOW curl_wchar_t
defined in curlbuild.h and this pulling whatever system header is
required to get wchar_t definition.
Additionally a new curl_global_init_mem() function that also receives
user defined wcsdup() callback would be required.
Proxy servers tend to add their own headers at the beginning of
responses. The size of these headers was not taken into account by
CURLINFO_HEADER_SIZE before this change.

curl has been accepting URLs using slightly wrong syntax for a long
time, such as when completely missing as slash "http://example.org" or
missing a slash when a query part is given
"http://example.org?q=foobar".
curl would translate these into a legitimate HTTP request to servers,

Introducing a number of options to the multi interface that
allows for multiple pipelines to the same host, in order to
optimize the balance between the penalty for opening new
connections and the potential pipelining latency.
Two new options for limiting the number of connections:
CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS - Limits the number of running connections
to the same host. When adding a handle that exceeds this limit,
that handle will be put in a pending state until another handle is
finished, so we can reuse the connection.
CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS - Limits the number of connections in total.
When adding a handle that exceeds this limit,
that handle will be put in a pending state until another handle is
finished. The free connection will then be reused, if possible, or
closed if the pending handle can't reuse it.
Several new options for pipelining:
CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH - Limits the pipeling length. If a
pipeline is "full" when a connection is to be reused, a new connection
will be opened if the CURLMOPT_MAX_xxx_CONNECTIONS limits allow it.
If not, the handle will be put in a pending state until a connection is
ready (either free or a pipe got shorter).
CURLMOPT_CONTENT_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE - A pipelined connection will not
be reused if it is currently processing a transfer with a content
length that is larger than this.
CURLMOPT_CHUNK_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE - A pipelined connection will not
be reused if it is currently processing a chunk larger than this.
CURLMOPT_PIPELINING_SITE_BL - A blacklist of hosts that don't allow
pipelining.
CURLMOPT_PIPELINING_SERVER_BL - A blacklist of server types that don't allow
pipelining.
See the curl_multi_setopt() man page for details.
Following commit e450f66a02 and the changes in the multi interface
being used internally, from 7.29.0, the transfer cancellation in
pop3_dophase_done() is no longer required.

Moved the blocking state machine to the disconnect functions so that the
logout / quit functions are only responsible for sending the actual
command needed to logout or quit.
Additionally removed the hard return on failure.
Added an exception, for the STORE command, to the untagged response
processor in imap_endofresp() as servers will back respones containing
the FETCH keyword instead.
The list of unsafe functions currently consists of sprintf, vsprintf,
strcat, strncat and gets.
Subsequently, some existing code needed updating to avoid warnings on
this.
As the UID has to be specified by the user for the FETCH command to work
correctly, added a check to imap_fetch(), although strictly speaking it
is protected by the call from imap_perform().
The option needs to be set on the SSL socket. Setting it on the model
takes no effect. Note that the non-blocking mode is still not enabled
for the handshake because the code is not yet ready for that.
Commit 26eaa83830 introduces the use of S_ISDIR() yet some compilers,

Some state changes would be performed after a failure test that

performed within a success test.
Added imap_custom(), which initiates the custom command processing,
and an associated response handler imap_state_custom_resp(), which
handles any responses by sending them to the client as body data.
All untagged responses with the same name as the first word of the
custom request string are accepted, with the exception of SELECT and
EXAMINE which have responses that cannot be easily identified. An
extra check has been provided for them so that any untagged responses
are accepted for them.
Added imap_parse_custom_request() for parsing the CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST
parameter which URL decodes the value and separates the request from
any parameters - This makes it easier to filter untagged responses
by the request command.
For consistency changed the logic of the imap_state_append_resp()
function to test for an unsucessful continuation response rather than a
succesful one.
The APPEND operation needs to be performed in several steps:
1) We send "<tag> APPEND <mailbox> <flags> {<size>}\r\n"
2) Server responds with continuation respose "+ ...\r\n"
3) We start the transfer and send <size> bytes of data
4) Only now we end the request command line by sending "\r\n"
5) Server responds with "<tag> OK ...\r\n"
This commit performs steps 4 and 5, in the DONE phase, as more
processing is required after the transfer.
Some state changes would be performed after a failure test that

Not processing the final FETCH responses was not optimal, not only
because the response code would be ignored but it would also leave data
unread on the socket which would prohibit connection reuse.
A typical FETCH response can be broken down into four parts:
1) "* <uid> FETCH (<what> {<size>}\r\n", using continuation syntax
2) <size> bytes of the actual message
3) ")\r\n", finishing the untagged response
4) "<tag> OK ...", finishing the command
Part 1 is read in imap_fetch_resp(), part 2 is consumed in the PERFORM
phase by the transfer subsystem, parts 3 and 4 are currently ignored.
Added a loop to imap_statemach_act() in which Curl_pp_readresp() is
called until the cache is drained. Without this multiple responses
received in a single packet could result in a hang or delay.
RFC 3501 states that "the client MUST be prepared to accept any response
at all times" yet we assume anything received with "* " at the beginning
is the untagged response we want.
Introduced a helper function that checks whether the input looks like a
response to specified command, so that we may filter the ones we are
interested in according to the current state.
Introduced similar handling to the FETCH responses, where even the
untagged data responses are handled by the response handler of the
individual state.
Removed this pointer to a downloaded bytes counter because it was set in
smtp_init() to point to the same variable the transfer functions keep

From a maintenance point of view the code reads better to view tagged
responses, then untagged followed by continuation responses.

Updated the mailbox variable to correctly reflect it's purpose. The
name mailbox was a leftover from when IMAP and POP3 support was
initially added to curl.
Updated the FETCH command to send the UID and SECTION parsed from the
URL. By default the BODY specifier doesn't include a section, BODY[] is
now sent whereas BODY[TEXT] was previously sent. In my opinion
retrieving just the message text is rarely useful when dealing with
emails, as the headers are required for example, so that functionality
is not retained. In can however be simulated by adding SECTION=TEXT to
the URL.
Also updated test801 and test1321 due to the BODY change.

Moved the mailbox variable from the per-connection struct imap_conn to
the new per-request struct and fixed references accordingly.
Moved the clean-up of the mailbox variable from imap_disconnect() to
imap_done() as this variable is allocated in the do phase, yet would
have only been freed only once if multiple selects where preformed
on a single connection.
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.
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 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

instead remain with just stating that the resolving of the name failed.
