docs: make each libcurl man specify protocol(s)

The mandatory header now has a mandatory list of protocols for which the
manpage is relevant.

Most man pages already has a "PROTOCOLS" section, but this introduces a
stricter way to specify the relevant protocols.

cd2nroff verifies that at least one protocol is mentioned (which can be
`*`).

This information is not used just yet, but A) the PROTOCOLS section can
now instead get generated and get a unified wording across all manpages
and B) this allows us to more reliably filter/search for protocol
specific manpages/options.

Closes #13166

NAME

CURLOPT_SASL_AUTHZID - authorization identity (identity to act as)

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SASL_AUTHZID, char *authzid);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a char pointer as parameter, which should be pointing to the null-terminated authorization identity (authzid) for the transfer. Only applicable to the PLAIN SASL authentication mechanism where it is optional.

When not specified only the authentication identity (authcid) as specified by the username is sent to the server, along with the password. The server derives a authzid from the authcid when not provided, which it then uses internally.

When the authzid is specified, the use of which is server dependent, it can be used to access another user's inbox, that the user has been granted access to, or a shared mailbox for example.

DEFAULT

blank

PROTOCOLS

IMAP, LDAP, POP3 and SMTP

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();

    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_USERNAME, "Kurt");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PASSWORD, "xipj3plmq");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SASL_AUTHZID, "Ursel");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}
