docs/libcurl: generate PROTOCOLS from meta-data
Remove the PROTOCOLS section from the source files completely and
instead generate them based on the header data in the curldown files.

It also generates TLS backend information for options marked for TLS as
protocol.

NAME

CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD_T - get the number of downloaded bytes

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD_T,
                           curl_off_t *dlp);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a pointer to a curl_off_t to receive the total amount of bytes that were downloaded. The amount is only for the latest transfer and gets reset again for each new transfer. This counts actual payload data, what's also commonly called body. All meta and header data is excluded from this amount.

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");

    /* Perform the request */
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

    if(!res) {
      /* check the size */
      curl_off_t dl;
      res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD_T, &dl);
      if(!res) {
        printf("Downloaded %" CURL_FORMAT_CURL_OFF_T " bytes\n", dl);
      }
    }
  }
}

AVAILABILITY

Added in 7.55.0

RETURN VALUE

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
