Make it possible to build curl for Windows CE using the CeGCC toolchain.
With both CMake and autotools, including tests and examples, also in CI.
The build configuration is the default one with Schannel enabled. No
3rd-party dependencies have been tested.
Also revive old code to make Schannel build with Windows CE, including
certificate verification.
Builds have been throughougly tested. But, I've made no functional tests
for this PR. Some parts (esp. file operations, like truncate and seek)
are stubbed out and likely broken as a result. Test servers build, but
they do not work on Windows CE. This patch substitutes `fstat()` calls
with `stat()`, which operate on filenames, not file handles. This may or
may not work and/or may not be secure.
About CeGCC: I used the latest available macOS binary build v0.59.1
r1397 from 2009, in native `mingw32ce` build mode. CeGCC is in effect
MinGW + GCC 4.4.0 + old/classic-mingw Windows headers. It targets
Windows CE v3.0 according to its `_WIN32_WCE` value. It means this PR
restores portions of old/classic-mingw support. It makes the Windows CE
codepath compatible with GCC 4.4.0. It also adds workaround for CMake,
which cannot identify and configure this toolchain out of the box.
Notes:
- CMake doesn't recognize CeGCC/mingw32ce, necessitating tricks as seen
with Amiga and MS-DOS.
- CMake doesn't set `MINGW` for mingw32ce. Set it and `MINGW32CE`
manually as a helper variable, in addition to `WINCE` which CMake sets
based on `CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME`.
- CMake fails to create an implib for `libcurl.dll`, due to not
recognizing the platform as a Windowsy one. This patch adds the
necessary workaround to make it work.
- headers shipping with CeGCC miss some things curl needs for Schannel
support. Fixed by restoring and renovating code previously deleted
old-mingw code.
- it's sometime non-trivial to figure out if a fallout is WinCE,
mingw32ce, old-mingw, or GCC version-specific.
- WinCE is always Unicode. With exceptions: no `wmain`,
`GetProcAddress()`.
- `_fileno()` is said to convert from `FILE *` to `void *` which is
a Win32 file `HANDLE`. (This patch doesn't use this, but with further
effort it probably could be.)
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3989545/how-do-i-get-the-file-handle-from-the-fopen-file-structure
- WinCE has no signals, current directory, stdio/CRT file handles, no
`_get_osfhandle()`, no `errno`, no `errno.h`. Some of this stuff is
standard C89, yet missing from this platform. Microsoft expects
Windows CE apps to use Win32 file API and `FILE *` exclusively.
- revived CeGCC here (not tested for this PR):

On `UNDER_CE` vs. `_WIN32_WCE`: (This patch settled on `UNDER_CE`)
- A custom VS2008 WinCE toolchain does not set any of these.
The compiler binaries don't contain these strings, and has no compiler
option for targeting WinCE, hinting that a vanilla toolchain isn't
setting any of them either.
- `UNDER_CE` is automatically defined by the CeGCC compiler.
https://cegcc.sourceforge.net/docs/details.html
- `UNDER_CE` is similar to `_WIN32`, except it's not set automatically
by all compilers. It's not supposed to have any value, like a version.
(Though e.g. OpenSSL sets it to a version)
- `_WIN32_WCE` is the CE counterpart of the non-CE `_WIN32_WINNT` macro.
That does return the targeted Windows CE version.
- `_WIN32_WCE` is not defined by compilers, and relies on a header
setting it to a default, or the build to set it to the desired target
version. This is also how `_WIN32_WINNT` works.
- `_WIN32_WCE` default is set by `windef.h` in CeGCC.
- `_WIN32_WCE` isn't set to a default by MSVC Windows CE headers (the
ones I checked at least).
- CMake sets `_WIN32_WCE=<ver>`, `UNDER_CE`, `WINCE` for MSVC WinCE.
- `_WIN32_WCE` seems more popular in other projects, including CeGCC
itself. `zlib` is a notable exception amongst curl dependencies,
which uses `UNDER_CE`.
- Since `_WIN32_WCE` needs "certain" headers to have it defined, it's
undefined depending on headers included beforehand.
- `curl/curl.h` re-uses `_WIN32_WCE`'s as a self-guard, relying on
its not-(necessarily)-defined-by-default property:

Closes#12349
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.

- Change use of those options from CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS that are not
already evaluated via SSL_SET_OPTION in schannel and secure transport
to use that instead of data->set.ssl.optname.
Example:
Evaluate SSL_SET_OPTION(no_revoke) instead of data->set.ssl.no_revoke.
This change is because options set via CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS
(data->set.ssl.optname) are separate from those set for HTTPS proxy via
CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_OPTIONS (data->set.proxy_ssl.optname). The
SSL_SET_OPTION macro determines whether the connection is for HTTPS
proxy and based on that which option to evaluate.
Since neither Schannel nor Secure Transport backends currently support
HTTPS proxy in libcurl, this change is for posterity and has no other
effect.

- 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.

- Support hostname verification via alternative names (SAN) in the
peer certificate when CURLOPT_CAINFO is used in Windows 7 and earlier.
CERT_NAME_SEARCH_ALL_NAMES_FLAG doesn't exist before Windows 8. As a
result CertGetNameString doesn't quite work on those versions of
Windows. This change provides an alternative solution for
CertGetNameString by iterating through CERT_ALT_NAME_INFO for earlier
versions of Windows.
Prior to this change many certificates failed the hostname validation
when CURLOPT_CAINFO was used in Windows 7 and earlier. Most certificates
now represent multiple hostnames and rely on the alternative names field
exclusively to represent their hostnames.
