Closes#5917
Background:
148534d added CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA to use the Windows OS certificate
store in libcurl w/ OpenSSL on Windows. CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA overrides
CURLOPT_CAINFO if both are set. The curl tool will fall back to
CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA if it could not find a certificate bundle to set
via CURLOPT_CAINFO.
Problem:
libcurl may be built with hardcoded paths to a certificate bundle or
directory, and if CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA is used then those paths are
ignored.
Solution:
A solution is still being discussed but since there's an impending
release this commit removes using CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA in the curl tool.

- Implement new option CURLSSLOPT_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT and
--ssl-revoke-best-effort to allow a "best effort" revocation check.
A best effort revocation check ignores errors that the revocation check
was unable to take place. The reasoning is described in detail below and
discussed further in the PR.
---
When running e.g. with Fiddler, the schannel backend fails with an
unhelpful error message:
Unknown error (0x80092012) - The revocation function was unable
to check revocation for the certificate.
Sadly, many enterprise users who are stuck behind MITM proxies suffer
the very same problem.
This has been discussed in plenty of issues:
https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/3727,
https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/264, for example.
In the latter, a Microsoft Edge developer even made the case that the
common behavior is to ignore issues when a certificate has no recorded
distribution point for revocation lists, or when the server is offline.
This is also known as "best effort" strategy and addresses the Fiddler
issue.
Unfortunately, this strategy was not chosen as the default for schannel
(and is therefore a backend-specific behavior: OpenSSL seems to happily
ignore the offline servers and missing distribution points).
To maintain backward-compatibility, we therefore add a new flag
(`CURLSSLOPT_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT`) and a new option
(`--ssl-revoke-best-effort`) to select the new behavior.
Due to the many related issues Git for Windows and GitHub Desktop, the
plan is to make this behavior the default in these software packages.
The test 2070 was added to verify this behavior, adapted from 310.

Repeatedly we see problems where using curl_multi_wait() is difficult or
just awkward because if it has no file descriptor to wait for
internally, it returns immediately and leaves it to the caller to wait
for a small amount of time in order to avoid occasional busy-looping.
This is often missed or misunderstood, leading to underperforming
applications.
This change introduces curl_multi_poll() as a replacement drop-in
function that accepts the exact same set of arguments. This function
works identically to curl_multi_wait() - EXCEPT - for the case when
there's nothing to wait for internally, as then this function will by
itself wait for a "suitable" short time before it returns. This
effectiely avoids all risks of busy-looping and should also make it less
likely that apps "over-wait".
This also changes the curl tool to use this funtion internally when
doing parallel transfers and changes curl_easy_perform() to use it
internally.

handling of multiple SANs in a certificate. In particular, all SANs
will now be searched instead of just the first name.
- Update tool_operate.c to not search for the curl-ca-bundle.crt file
when using Schannel to maintain backward compatibility. Previously,
any curl-ca-bundle.crt file found in that search would have been
ignored by Schannel. But, with CAINFO support, the file found by
that search would have been used as the certificate store and
could cause issues for any users that have curl-ca-bundle.crt in
the search path.
- Update url.c to not set the build time CURL_CA_BUNDLE if the selected
SSL backend is Schannel. We allow setting CA location for schannel
only when explicitly specified by the user via CURLOPT_CAINFO /
--cacert.

When curl and libcurl are built with some protocols disabled, they stop
setting and receiving some options that don't make sense with those
protocols. In particular, when HTTP is disabled many options aren't set
that are used only by HTTP. However, some options that appear to be
HTTP-only are actually used by other protocols as well (some despite
having HTTP in the name) and should be set, but weren't. This change now
causes some of these options to be set and used for more (or for all)
protocols. In particular, this fixes tests 646 through 649 in an
HTTP-disabled build, which use the MIME API in the mail protocols.

CURLOPT_SOCKS_PROXY -> CURLOPT_PRE_PROXY
Added the corresponding --preroxy command line option. Sets a SOCKS
proxy to connect to _before_ connecting to a HTTP(S) proxy.
... the newly introduced CURLOPT_SOCKS_PROXY is special and should be
asked for specially. (Needs new code.)
Unified proxy type to a single variable in the config struct.
This was added as part of the SOCKS+HTTPS proxy merge but there's no
need to support this as we prefer to have the protocol specified as a
prefix instead.
* HTTPS proxies:
An HTTPS proxy receives all transactions over an SSL/TLS connection.
Once a secure connection with the proxy is established, the user agent
uses the proxy as usual, including sending CONNECT requests to instruct
the proxy to establish a [usually secure] TCP tunnel with an origin
server. HTTPS proxies protect nearly all aspects of user-proxy
communications as opposed to HTTP proxies that receive all requests
(including CONNECT requests) in vulnerable clear text.
With HTTPS proxies, it is possible to have two concurrent _nested_
SSL/TLS sessions: the "outer" one between the user agent and the proxy
and the "inner" one between the user agent and the origin server
(through the proxy). This change adds supports for such nested sessions
as well.
A secure connection with a proxy requires its own set of the usual SSL
options (their actual descriptions differ and need polishing, see TODO):
--proxy-cacert FILE CA certificate to verify peer against
--proxy-capath DIR CA directory to verify peer against
--proxy-cert CERT[:PASSWD] Client certificate file and password
--proxy-cert-type TYPE Certificate file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-ciphers LIST SSL ciphers to use
--proxy-crlfile FILE Get a CRL list in PEM format from the file
--proxy-insecure Allow connections to proxies with bad certs
--proxy-key KEY Private key file name
--proxy-key-type TYPE Private key file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-pass PASS Pass phrase for the private key
--proxy-ssl-allow-beast Allow security flaw to improve interop
--proxy-sslv2 Use SSLv2
--proxy-sslv3 Use SSLv3
--proxy-tlsv1 Use TLSv1
--proxy-tlsuser USER TLS username
--proxy-tlspassword STRING TLS password
--proxy-tlsauthtype STRING TLS authentication type (default SRP)
All --proxy-foo options are independent from their --foo counterparts,
except --proxy-crlfile which defaults to --crlfile and --proxy-capath
which defaults to --capath.
Curl now also supports %{proxy_ssl_verify_result} --write-out variable,
similar to the existing %{ssl_verify_result} variable.
Supported backends: OpenSSL, GnuTLS, and NSS.
* A SOCKS proxy + HTTP/HTTPS proxy combination:
If both --socks* and --proxy options are given, Curl first connects to
the SOCKS proxy and then connects (through SOCKS) to the HTTP or HTTPS
proxy.
