curldown: make 'added-in:' a mandatory header field
- generate AVAILABILITY manpage sections automatically - for consistent
  wording

- allows us to double-check against other documumentation (symbols-in-versions
  etc)

- enables proper automation/scripting based on this data

- lots of them were wrong or missing in the manpages

- several of them repeated (sometimes mismatching) backend support info

Add test 1488 to verify "added-in" version numbers against
symbols-in-versions.

Closes #14217

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_XFERINFODATA, void *pointer);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a pointer that is untouched by libcurl and passed as the first argument in the progress callback set with CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION(3).

This is an alias for CURLOPT_PROGRESSDATA(3).

The default value of this parameter is NULL.

EXAMPLE

struct progress {
  char *private;
  size_t size;
};

static size_t progress_cb(void *clientp,
                          curl_off_t dltotal,
                          curl_off_t dlnow,
                          curl_off_t ultotal,
                          curl_off_t ulnow)
{
  struct progress *memory = clientp;
  printf("private ptr: %p\n", memory->private);
  /* use the values */

  return 0; /* all is good */
}

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    struct progress data;

    /* pass struct to callback  */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_XFERINFODATA, &data);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION, progress_cb);
  }
}

RETURN VALUE
