https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/7121 introduced a macOS system call
to `SCDynamicStoreCopyProxies`, which is invoked every time an IP
address needs to be resolved.
However, this system call is not thread-safe, and macOS will kill the
process if the system call is run first in a fork. To make it possible
for the parent process to call this once and prevent the crash, only
invoke this system call in the global initialization routine.
In addition, this change is beneficial because it:
1. Avoids extra macOS system calls for every IP lookup.
2. Consolidates macOS-specific initialization in a separate file.

- add an `id` long to Curl_easy, -1 on init
- once added to a multi (or its own multi), it gets
a non-negative number assigned by the connection cache
- `id` is unique among all transfers using the same
cache until reaching LONG_MAX where it will wrap
around. So, not unique eternally.
- CURLINFO_CONN_ID returns the connection id attached to
data or, if none present, data->state.lastconnect_id
- variables and type declared in tool for write out

Aka "jumbo" or "amalgamation" builds. It means to compile all sources
per target as a single C source. This is experimental.
You can enable it by passing `-DCMAKE_UNITY_BUILD=ON` to cmake.
It requires CMake 3.16 or newer.
It makes builds (much) faster, allows for better optimizations and tends
to promote less ambiguous code.
Also add a new AppVeyor CI job and convert an existing one to use
"unity" mode (one MSVC, one MinGW), and enable it for one macOS CI job.
Fix related issues:
- add missing include guard to `easy_lock.h`.
- rename static variables and functions (and a macro) with names reused
across sources, or shadowed by local variables.
- add an `#undef` after use.
- add a missing `#undef` before use.
- move internal definitions from `ftp.h` to `ftp.c`.
- `curl_memory.h` fixes to make it work when included repeatedly.
- stop building/linking curlx bits twice for a static-mode curl tool.
These caused doubly defined symbols in unity builds.
- silence missing extern declarations compiler warning for ` _CRT_glob`.
- fix extern declarations for `tool_freq` and `tool_isVistaOrGreater`.
- fix colliding static symbols in debug mode: `debugtime()` and
`statename`.
- rename `ssl_backend_data` structure to unique names for each
TLS-backend, along with the `ssl_connect_data` struct member
referencing them. This required adding casts for each access.
- add workaround for missing `[P]UNICODE_STRING` types in certain Windows
builds when compiling `lib/ldap.c`. To support "unity" builds, we had
to enable `SCHANNEL_USE_BLACKLISTS` for Schannel (a Windows
`schannel.h` option) _globally_. This caused an indirect inclusion of
Windows `schannel.h` from `ldap.c` via `winldap.h` to have it enabled
as well. This requires `[P]UNICODE_STRING` types, which is apperantly
not defined automatically (as seen with both MSVS and mingw-w64).
This patch includes `<subauth.h>` to fix it.

Refactoring of connection setup and happy eyeballing. Move
nghttp2. ngtcp2, quiche and msh3 into connection filters.
- eyeballing cfilter that uses sub-filters for performing parallel connects
- socket cfilter for all transport types, including QUIC
- QUIC implementations in cfilter, can now participate in eyeballing
- connection setup is more dynamic in order to adapt to what filter did
really connect. Relevant to see if a SSL filter needs to be added or
if SSL has already been provided
- HTTP/3 test cases similar to HTTP/2
- multiuse of parallel transfers for HTTP/3, tested for ngtcp2 and quiche
- Fix for data attach/detach in VTLS filters that could lead to crashes
during parallel transfers.
- Eliminating setup() methods in cfilters, no longer needed.
- Improving Curl_conn_is_alive() to replace Curl_connalive() and
integrated ssl alive checks into cfilter.
- Adding CF_CNTRL_CONN_INFO_UPDATE to tell filters to update

- Several more cfilter related cleanups and moves:
- stream_weigth and dependency info is now wrapped in struct
Curl_data_priority
- Curl_data_priority members depend is available in HTTP2|HTTP3
- Curl_data_priority members depend on NGHTTP2 support
- handling init/reset/cleanup of priority part of url.c
- data->state.priority same struct, but shallow copy for compares only
- PROTOPT_STREAM has been removed
- Curl_conn_is_mulitplex() now available to check on capability
- Adding query method to connection filters.
- ngtcp2+quiche: implementing query for max concurrent transfers.
- Adding is_alive and keep_alive cfilter methods. Adding DATA_SETUP event.
- setting keepalive timestamp on connect
- DATA_SETUP is called after the connection has been completely
setup (but may not connected yet) to allow filters to initialize
data members they use.
- there is no socket to be had with msh3, it is unclear how select
shall work
- manual test via "curl --http3 https://curl.se" fail with "empty

- Various socket/conn related cleanups:
- Curl_socket is now Curl_socket_open and in cf-socket.c
- Curl_closesocket is now Curl_socket_close and in cf-socket.c
- Curl_ssl_use has been replaced with Cur_conn_is_ssl
- Curl_conn_tcp_accepted_set has been split into
Curl_conn_tcp_listen_set and Curl_conn_tcp_accepted_set
with a clearer purpose
Closes#10141
The cookiefile entries are set into the handle and should remain set for
the lifetime of the handle so that duplicating it also duplicates the
list. Therefore, the struct field is moved from 'state' to 'set'.
Fixes#10133Closes#10134
Deprecation and removal of codeset conversion support from the library
have released the strict need for an early binding of mime structures to
an easy handle (https://github.com/curl/curl/commit/2610142).
This constraint currently forces to create the handle before the mime
structure and the latter cannot be attached to another handle once
created (see https://curl.se/mail/lib-2022-08/0027.html).
This commit removes the handle pointers from the mime structures
allowing more flexibility on their use.
When an easy handle is duplicated, bound mime structures must however
still be duplicated too as their components hold send-time dynamic
information.
Closes#9927
curl_ws_recv() now receives data to fill up the provided buffer, but can
return a partial fragment. The function now also get a pointer to a
curl_ws_frame struct with metadata that also mentions the offset and
total size of the fragment (of which you might be receiving a smaller
piece). This way, large incoming fragments will be "streamed" to the
application. When the curl_ws_frame struct field 'bytesleft' is 0, the
final fragment piece has been delivered.
curl_ws_recv() was also adjusted to work with a buffer size smaller than
the fragment size. (Possibly needless to say as the fragment size can
now be 63 bit large).
curl_ws_send() now supports sending a piece of a fragment, in a
streaming manner, in addition to sending the entire fragment in a single
call if it is small enough. To send a huge fragment, curl_ws_send() can
be used to send it in many small calls by first telling libcurl about
the total expected fragment size, and then send the payload in N number
of separate invokes and libcurl will stream those over the wire.
The struct curl_ws_meta() returns is now called 'curl_ws_frame' and it
has been extended with two new fields: *offset* and *bytesleft*. To help
describe the passed on data chunk when a fragment is delivered in many
smaller pieces.
The documentation has been updated accordingly.

The Curl_easy pointer struct entry in connectdata is now gone. Just

Closes#6608
... in most cases instead of 'struct connectdata *' but in some cases in
addition to.
- We mostly operate on transfers and not connections.
- We need the transfer handle to log, store data and more. Everything in
libcurl is driven by a transfer (the CURL * in the public API).
- This work clarifies and separates the transfers from the connections
better.
- We should avoid "conn->data". Since individual connections can be used
by many transfers when multiplexing, making sure that conn->data
points to the current and correct transfer at all times is difficult
and has been notoriously error-prone over the years. The goal is to
ultimately remove the conn->data pointer for this reason.
