curldown: fixups
- make DEFAULT sections less repetitive

- make historic mentions use HISTORY

- generate the protocols section on `# %PROTOCOLS%` instead of guessing
  where to put it

- generate the availability section on `# %AVAILABILITY%` instead of
  guessing where to put it

- make the protocols section more verbose

# NAME
CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING - HTTP content decoding control
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING,
long enabled);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Pass a long to tell libcurl how to act on content decoding. If set to zero,
content decoding is disabled. If set to 1 it is enabled. Libcurl has no
default content decoding but requires you to use
CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING(3) for that.
# DEFAULT
1
# %PROTOCOLS%
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode ret;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING, 0L);
ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
~~~
# %AVAILABILITY%
# RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
