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.

As the plan has been laid out in DEPRECATED. Update docs accordingly and
verify in test 1174. Now requires the option to be set to allow HTTP/0.9
responses.
Closes#4191
Allow pretty much anything to be part of the ALPN identifier. In
particular minus, which is used for "h3-20" (in-progress HTTP/3
versions) etc.
Updated test 356.
Closes#4182
If HTTPAUTH_GSSNEGOTIATE was used for a POST request and
gss_init_sec_context() failed, the POST request was sent
with empty body. This commit also restores the original
behavior of `curl --fail --negotiate`, which was changed
by commit 6c60355323.
Add regression tests 2077 and 2078 to cover this.

It was used (intended) to pass in the size of the 'socks' array that is
also passed to these functions, but was rarely actually checked/used and
the array is defined to a fixed size of MAX_SOCKSPEREASYHANDLE entries
that should be used instead.

... to make CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE and
CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE work correctly on subsequent transfers that

If using the read callback for HTTP_POST, and POSTFIELDSIZE is not set,
automatically add a Transfer-Encoding: chunked header, same as it is
already done for HTTP_PUT, HTTP_POST_FORM and HTTP_POST_MIME. Update
test 1514 according to the new behaviour.
Closes#4138
- In curl_easy_reset attempt to resize the receive buffer to its default
size. If realloc fails then continue using the previous size.
Prior to this change curl_easy_reset did not properly handle resetting
the receive buffer (data->state.buffer). It reset the variable holding
its size (data->set.buffer_size) to the default size (READBUFFER_SIZE)
but then did not actually resize the buffer. If a user resized the
buffer by using CURLOPT_BUFFERSIZE to set the size smaller than the
default, later called curl_easy_reset and attempted to reuse the handle
then a heap overflow would very likely occur during that handle's next
transfer.

Specifying O_APPEND in conjunction with O_TRUNC and O_CREAT does not
make much sense. And this combination of flags is not accepted by all
SFTP servers (at least not Apache SSHD).

Closes#3500
Several reasons:
- we can't add everyone who's helping out so its unfair to just a few
selected ones.
- we already list all helpers in THANKS and in RELEASE-NOTES for each
release
- we don't want to give the impression that some parts of the code is
"owned" or "controlled" by specific persons

PK11_IsPresent() checks for the token for the given slot is available,
and sets needlogin flags for the PK11_Authenticate() call. Should it
return false, we should however treat it as an error and bail out.

All protocols except for CURLPROTO_FILE/CURLPROTO_SMB and their TLS
counterpart were allowed for redirect. This vastly broadens the
exploitation surface in case of a vulnerability such as SSRF [1], where
libcurl-based clients are forced to make requests to arbitrary hosts.
For instance, CURLPROTO_GOPHER can be used to smuggle any TCP-based
protocol by URL-encoding a payload in the URI. Gopher will open a TCP
connection and send the payload.
Only HTTP/HTTPS and FTP are allowed. All other protocols have to be
explicitly enabled for redirects through CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS.
