docs/libcurl/opts: clarify the return values
Expand a little.

- mention the type name of the return code
- avoid stating which exact return codes that might be returned, as that
  varies over time, builds and conditions
- avoid stating some always return OK
- refer to the manpage documenting all the return codes

# NAME
CURLOPT_HTTP09_ALLOWED - allow HTTP/0.9 response
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTP09_ALLOWED, long allowed);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Pass the long argument *allowed* set to 1L to allow HTTP/0.9 responses.
An HTTP/0.9 response is a server response entirely without headers and only a
body. You can connect to lots of random TCP services and still get a response
that curl might consider to be HTTP/0.9.
# DEFAULT
0
# %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_HTTP09_ALLOWED, 1L);
ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
}
~~~
# HISTORY
curl allowed HTTP/0.9 responses by default before 7.66.0
Since 7.66.0, libcurl requires this option set to 1L to allow HTTP/0.9
responses.
# %AVAILABILITY%
# RETURN VALUE
curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see
libcurl-errors(3).
