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.

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_XOAUTH2_BEARER, char *token);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a char pointer as parameter, which should point to the null-terminated OAuth 2.0 Bearer Access Token for use with HTTP, IMAP, LDAP, POP3 and SMTP servers that support the OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework.

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_XOAUTH2_BEARER, "1ab9cb22ba269a7");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
