strparse: switch to curl_off_t as base data type
- add hex and octal parsers to the Curl_str_* family
- make curlx_strtoofft use these parsers
- remove all use of strtol() and strtoul() in library code
- generally use Curl_str_* more than strtoofft, for stricter parsing
- supports 64-bit universally, instead of 'long' which differs in size
  between platforms

Extended the unit test 1664 to verify hex and octal parsing.

lib: redirect handling by protocol handler
Adds a `follow()` callback to protocol handlers, so they may decide how
to act on a `newurl` after a request has been done. This is optional.

This moves the HTTP code for handling redirects from multi.c to http.c
where it should be. If we ever add a protocol with its own logic, it
would install its own follow function.

lib: clarify 'conn->httpversion'
The variable `conn->httpversion` was used for several purposes and it
was unclear at which time the value represents what.

- rename `conn->httpversion` to `conn->httpversion_seen`
  This makes clear that the variable only records the last
  HTTP version seen on the connection - if any. And that it
  no longer is an indication of what version to use.
- Change Alt-Svc handling to no longer modify `conn->httpversion`
  but set `data->state.httpwant` for influencing the HTTP version
  to use on a transfer.
- Add `data->req.httpversion_sent` to have a record of what
  HTTP version was sent in a request
- Add connection filter type CF_TYPE_HTTP
- Add filter query `CF_QUERY_HTTP_VERSION` to ask what HTTP
  filter version is in place
- Lookup filters HTTP version instead of using `conn->httpversion`

Test test_12_05 now switches to HTTP/1.1 correctly and the
expectations have been fixed.

Removed the connection fitler "is_httpN()" checks and using
the version query instead.

TLS: check connection for SSL use, not handler
Protocol handler option PROTOPT_SSL is used to setup a connection
filters. Once that is done, used `Curl_conn_is_ssl()` to check if
a connection uses SSL.

There may be other reasons to add SSL to a connection, e.g. starttls.

6c70ec16c7 http: ignore invalid Retry-After times
- Treat negative Retry-After date-based times as 0.

- Treat Retry-After times greater than 6 hours as 6 hours.

Prior to this change Retry-After did not have a limited range and the
server could have set a time greater than 6 hours or a date in the past
that would result in a negative time, either of which may be unexpected
by the user.

The 6 hour limit is purposely not documented so that it can be changed
in the future if necessary.

Makefile.mk: drop in favour of autotools and cmake (MS-DOS, AmigaOS3)
`Makefile.mk` supported MS-DOS and Amiga, but `./configure` also
supported them in a better tested and more flexible way.

This patch also adds CMake support for MS-DOS/DJGPP and Amiga OS 3.

`Makefile.mk` was not maintained. Delete it in favour of first-tier
build methods.

Also include some non-MS-DOS/AmigaOS-specific tidy-up, see details at
the end of this message.

Details:

- fix/silence all MS-DOS/DJGPP build warnings and issues.
- add MS-DOS support to cmake.
  - default to `ENABLE_THREADED_RESOLVER=OFF` for MS-DOS.
  - add support for `WATT_ROOT`.
  - use static libcurl with MS-DOS.
  - fixup default CMake suffixes/prefixes for DJGPP.
  - disable hidden symbols for MS-DOS. Not supported on MS-DOS.
  - opt-in MS-DOS into `USE_UNIX_SOCKETS`.
- improve MS-DOS support in autotools.
  - default to `--disable-threaded-resolver` for MS-DOS.
- make sure to use `close_s()` (from Watt-32) with autotools and cmake.
  `Makefile.mk` used it before this patch.
- GHA: add DJGPP cmake (~30s) and autotools (~60s) build jobs.
  Also build tests and examples with cmake.
- improve AmigaOS support in autotools:
  - configure: detect `CloseSocket()` when it's a macro.
  - configure: fix `IoctlSocket` detection on AmigaOS.
  - curl-amissl.m4: pass AmiSSL libs to tests/servers.
- add AmigaOS3 support to cmake:
  - cmake: fix `HAVE_IOCTLSOCKET_CAMEL` and
    `HAVE_IOCTLSOCKET_CAMEL_FIONBIO` detections.
  - set necessary system libs.
  - add AmiSSL support.
  - inet_ntop, inet_pton: fix using it for AmigaOS. cmake detects them,
    and they did not compile with AmigaOS.
  - cmake: better sync `gethostname` detection with autotools.
    Fixes detection for AmigaOS, where `gethostname` is a macro.
  - cmake: fix `sys/utime.h` detection on AmigaOS.
  - cmake: force-disable `getaddrinfo` for AmigaOS.
  - cmake: tweak threading and static/shared default for AmigaOS.
  - cmake: rely on manual variable `AMIGA` to enable the platform.
- GHA: add AmigaOS cmake and autotools (~45s) jobs.
  Also build tests and examples with cmake.
- INSTALL: update MS-DOS and AmigaOS build instructions.
- amigaos: fix `-Wpointer-sign` and
  `zero or negative size array '_args'` in `Printf()`.
- amigaos: fix `-Wpointer-sign`
- amigaos: fix `-Wredundant-decls` `errno` and `h_errno`.
- amigaos: brute-force silence `lseek()` size warnings.
- amigaos: server/resolve: silence `-Wdiscarded-qualifiers`.
- amigaos: server/resolve: fix `-Wpointer-sign`.
- amigaos: fix `CURL_SA_FAMILY_T` type.
- nonblock: prefer `HAVE_IOCTLSOCKET_CAMEL_FIONBIO` for AmigaOS.
  `ioctl` is also detected, but fails when used. Make the above override
  it for a successful build.

- doh: use `CURL_SA_FAMILY_T`.
- lib: drop mingw-specific `CURL_SA_FAMILY_T` workaround.

  No IPv6 support on these platforms. Also sync with autotools.
- lib1960: use libcurl `inet_pton()` wrapper.

url: fix connection reuse for HTTP/2 upgrades
Normally, when a connection's filters have all connected, the
multiplex status is determined. However, HTTP/2 Upgrade:
requests will only do this when the first server response
has been received.

The current connection reuse mechanism does not accomodate
that and when the time between connect and response is large
enough, connection reuse may not happen as desired.

See test case 2405 failures, such as in
https://github.com/curl/curl/actions/runs/10629497461/job/29467166451

Add 'conn->bits.asks_multiplex' as indicator that a connection is
still being evaluated for mulitplexing, so that new transfers
may wait on this to be cleared.

cpool: rename "connection cache/conncache" to "Connection Pools/cpool"
This is a better match for what they do and the general "cpool"
var/function prefix works well.

The pool now handles very long hostnames correctly.

The following changes have been made:

* 'struct connectdata', e.g. connections, keep new members
  named `destination` and ' destination_len' that fully specifies
  interface+port+hostname of where the connection is going to.
  This is used in the pool for "bundling" of connections with
  the same destination. There is no limit on the length any more.
* Locking: all locks are done inside conncache.c when calling
  into the pool and released on return. This eliminates hazards
  of the callers keeping track.
* 'struct connectbundle' is now internal to the pool. It is no
  longer referenced by a connection.
* 'bundle->multiuse' no longer exists. HTTP/2 and 3 and TLS filters
  no longer need to set it. Instead, the multi checks on leaving
  MSTATE_CONNECT or MSTATE_CONNECTING if the connection is now
  multiplexed and new, e.g. not conn->bits.reuse. In that case
  the processing of pending handles is triggered.
* The pool's init is provided with a callback to invoke on all
  connections being discarded. This allows the cleanups in
  `Curl_disconnect` to run, wherever it is decided to retire
  a connection.
* Several pool operations can now be fully done with one call.
  Pruning dead connections, upkeep and checks on pool limits
  can now directly discard connections and need no longer return
  those to the caller for doing that (as we have now the callback
  described above).
* Finding a connection for reuse is now done via `Curl_cpool_find()`
  and the caller provides callbacks to evaluate the connection
  candidates.
* The 'Curl_cpool_check_limits()' now directly uses the max values
  that may be set in the transfer's multi. No need to pass them
  around. Curl_multi_max_host_connections() and
  Curl_multi_max_total_connections() are gone.
* Add method 'Curl_node_llist()' to get the llist a node is in.
  Used in cpool to verify connection are indeed in the list (or
  not in any list) as they need to.

I left the conncache.[ch] as is for now and also did not touch the
documentation. If we update that outside the feature window, we can
do this in a separate PR.

Multi-thread safety is not achieved by this PR, but since more details
on how pools operate are now "internal" it is a better starting
point to go for this in the future.

transfer: Curl_sendrecv() and event related improvements
- Renames Curl_readwrite() to Curl_sendrecv() to reflect that it
  is mainly about talking to the server, not reads or writes to the
  client. Add a `nowp` parameter since the single caller already
  has this.
- Curl_sendrecv() now runs all possible operations whenever it is
  called and either it had been polling sockets or the 'select_bits'
  are set.
  POLL_IN/POLL_OUT are not always directly related to send/recv
  operations. Filters like HTTP/2, QUIC or TLS may monitor reverse
  directions. If a transfer does not want to send (KEEP_SEND), it
  will not do so, as before. Same for receives.
- Curl_update_timer() now checks the absolute timestamp of an expiry
  and the last/new timeout to determine if the application needs
  to stop/start/restart its timer. This fixes edge cases where
  updates did not happen as they should have.
- improved --test-event curl_easy_perform() simulation to handle
  situations where no sockets are registered but a timeout is
  in place.
- fixed bug in events_socket() that complained about removing
  a socket that was unknown, when indeed it had removed the socket
  just before, only it was the last in the list
- fixed conncache's internal handle to carry the multi instance
  (where the cache has one) so that operations on the closure handle
  trigger event callbacks correctly.
- fixed conncache to not POLL_REMOVE a socket twice when a conneciton
  was closed.

build: untangle CURLDEBUG and DEBUGBUILD macros
`CURLDEBUG` is meant to enable memory tracking, but in a bunch of cases,
it was protecting debug features that were supposed to be guarded with
`DEBUGBUILD`.

Replace these uses with `DEBUGBUILD`.

This leaves `CURLDEBUG` uses solely for its intended  purpose: to enable
the memory tracking debug feature.

Also:
- autotools: rely on `DEBUGBUILD` to enable `checksrc`.
  Instead of `CURLDEBUG`, which worked in most cases because debug
  builds enable `CURLDEBUG` by default, but it's not accurate.
- include `lib/easyif.h` instead of keeping a copy of a declaration.
- add CI test jobs for the build issues discovered.

lib: merge ENABLE_QUIC C macro into USE_HTTP3
Before this patch `lib/curl_setup.h` defined these two macros right

After this patch, `USE_HTTP3` guards all HTTP/3 / QUIC features.
(Like `USE_HTTP2` does for HTTP/2.) `ENABLE_QUIC` is no longer used.

This patch doesn't change the way HTTP/3 is enabled via autotools

http: with chunked POST forced, disable length check on read callback
- when an application forces HTTP/1.1 chunked transfer encoding
  by setting the corresponding header and instructs curl to use
  the CURLOPT_READFUNCTION, disregard any POST length information.
- this establishes backward compatibility with previous curl versions

Applications are encouraged to not force "chunked", but rather
set length information for a POST. By setting -1, curl will
auto-select chunked on HTTP/1.1 and work properly on other HTTP
versions.

http: improve response header handling, save cpu cycles
Saving some cpu cycles in http response header processing:
- pass the length of the header line along
- use string constant sizeof() instead of strlen()
- check line length if prefix is possible
- switch on first header char to limit checks
