dfe1884c25 Peter Silva introduced CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE and
CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE that limit tha maximum rate libcurl is allowed
to send or receive data. This kind of adds the the command line tool's
option --limit-rate to the library.

The rate limiting logic in the curl app is now removed and is instead
provided by libcurl itself. Transfer rate limiting will now also work for -d
and -F, which it didn't before.

606562aa7e Michael Wallner provided a patch that allows "SESS" to be set with
CURLOPT_COOKIELIST, which then makes all session cookies get cleared. (slightly
edited by me, and the re-indent in cookie.c was also done by me)

a15d107dde Peter Su added support for SOCKS4 proxies. Enable this by setting the proxy
type to the already provided type CURLPROXY_SOCKS4.
I added a --socks4 option that works like the current --socks5 option but
instead use the socks4 protocol.

87bcb6f377 Karl M added the CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY and CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET options that
an app can use to let libcurl only connect to a remote host and then extract
the socket from libcurl. libcurl will then not attempt to do any transfer at
all after the connect is done.

2fbf94b0f3 Added CURLOPT_LOCALPORT and CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE to libcurl. Set with the
curl tool with --local-port. Plain and simply set the range of ports to bind
the local end of connections to. Implemented on to popular demand.

Not extensively tested. Please let me know how it works.

966fa848a0 Nis Jorgensen filed bug report #1338648
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1338648) which really is more of a
feature request, but anyway. It pointed out that --max-redirs did not allow
it to be set to 0, which then would return an error code on the first
Location: found. Based on Nis' patch, now libcurl supports CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS
set to 0, or -1 for infinity. Added test case 274 to verify.

a4773fcbbb Toby Peterson added CURLOPT_IGNORE_CONTENT_LENGTH to the library, accessible
from the command line tool with --ignore-content-length. This will make it
easier to download files from Apache 1.x (and similar) servers that are
still having problems serving files larger than 2 or 4 GB. When this option
is enabled, curl will simply have to wait for the server to close the
connection to signal end of transfer. I wrote test case 269 that runs a
simple test that this works.

177dbc7be0 Ian Ford asked about support for the FTP command ACCT, and I discovered it is
present in RFC959... so now (lib)curl supports it as well. --ftp-account and
CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT set the account string. (The server may ask for an account
string after PASS have been sent away. The client responds with "ACCT [account
string]".) Added test case 228 and 229 to verify the functionality. Updated
the test FTP server to support ACCT somewhat.

0966ddafaa As reported in Mandrake's bug tracker bug 12285
(http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=12285), when connecting to an
IPv6 host with FTP, --disable-epsv (or --disable-eprt) effectively disables
the ability to transfer a file. Now, when connected to an FTP server with
IPv6, these FTP commands can't be disabled even if asked to with the
available libcurl options.
