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.

# NAME
CURLOPT_CERTINFO - request SSL certificate information
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_CERTINFO, long certinfo);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Pass a long set to 1 to enable libcurl's certificate chain info gatherer. With
this enabled, libcurl extracts lots of information and data about the
certificates in the certificate chain used in the SSL connection. This data
may then be retrieved after a transfer using curl_easy_getinfo(3) and
its option CURLINFO_CERTINFO(3).
# DEFAULT
0
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.example.com/");
/* connect to any HTTPS site, trusted or not */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0L);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0L);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CERTINFO, 1L);
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(!res) {
struct curl_certinfo *ci;
res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_CERTINFO, &ci);
if(!res) {
int i;
printf("%d certs!\n", ci->num_of_certs);
for(i = 0; i < ci->num_of_certs; i++) {
struct curl_slist *slist;
for(slist = ci->certinfo[i]; slist; slist = slist->next)
printf("%s\n", slist->data);
}
}
}
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
