Add test_31_13 to check connection reuse on mixed --ssl-reqd setting.
For that add debug env var CURL_DBG_NO_USE_SSL_ON_FIRST to disable
--ssl-reqd for the first url. Check that the connection without SSL
from the first url is not reused on the second URL that requires it.
Tweak special ftp: protocol check to fail a DEBUGASSERT on mismatched
`use_ssl` settings as that should have been caught before in the
connection reuse matching (imap/smtp etc. do not have this extra check
and rely on the general part doing its job).

This patch adds two major proxy capabilities to curl (ngtcp2 QUIC):
- HTTP/3 Proxy CONNECT: Tunnel HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2 traffic through an
HTTPS proxy that speaks HTTP/3 (QUIC) using the standard CONNECT
method over an HTTP/3 connection.
- MASQUE CONNECT-UDP: Tunnel HTTP/3 (QUIC) traffic through an HTTP
proxy (speaking HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, or HTTP/3) using the extended
CONNECT method with the CONNECT-UDP protocol (RFC9297 & RFC9298).
Public API additions:
- `CURLPROXY_HTTPS3`: new proxy type constant for HTTP/3 proxy
- `--proxy-http3`: new CLI flag to negotiate HTTP/3 with HTTPS proxy
The implementation adds two new filters:
- `H3-PROXY` - enables negotiating HTTP/3 (QUIC) to the proxy and
running CONNECT/CONNECT-UDP through that proxy transport.
- `CAPSULE` - dedicated filter inserted between QUIC transport and
HTTP-PROXY to handle datagram capsule encapsulation/decapsulation.
Here is how the curl filter chaining looks in different scenarios:
- HTTP/3 Proxy CONNECT (tunneling TCP protocols over QUIC proxy):
conn -> HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2 -> SSL -> HTTP-PROXY ->
H3-PROXY -> HAPPY-EYEBALLS -> UDP
- MASQUE CONNECT-UDP (tunneling QUIC over any proxy):
conn -> HTTP/3 -> CAPSULE -> HTTP-PROXY -> H3-PROXY ->
HAPPY-EYEBALLS -> UDP
conn -> HTTP/3 -> CAPSULE -> HTTP-PROXY -> H1-PROXY or H2-PROXY ->
SSL -> HAPPY-EYEBALLS -> TCP
- Both features currently require the ngtcp2 QUIC backend.
- Both features are experimental (disabled by default). Enable with
`--enable-proxy-http3`(autotools) or `-DUSE_PROXY_HTTP3=ON`(CMake).
Tests:
- tests/unit/unit3400.c: Unit tests for capsule protocol encode/decode
- tests/http/test_60_h3_proxy.py: Comprehensive pytest integration suite
- tests/http/testenv/h2o.py: Managing h2o instances with HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2,
and HTTP/3 (QUIC) listeners, proxy.connect and proxy.connect-udp enabled.

CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION exposes distinct modes:
CURLGSSAPI_DELEGATION_POLICY_FLAG is documented as delegating only when
OK-AS-DELEGATE policy permits it, while CURLGSSAPI_DELEGATION_FLAG is
unconditional. The new SSPI implementation checks for either bit and
sets ISC_REQ_DELEGATE, so a caller requesting policy-limited delegation
is put on the same SSPI path as unconditional delegation.
In addition, curl's existing protection that avoids reusing a connection
when the GSS delegation setting differs was guarded only by HAVE_GSSAPI;
SSPI-only builds now have an effective delegation option, but the
connection's delegation setting was neither copied nor compared. This
would cause Windows SSPI Negotiate/Kerberos authentication to delegate
credentials contrary to the caller's selected policy or reuse an
already-delegated authenticated connection for a transfer that requested
no delegation.

Closes#21583
The SASL service name, used in authentication, is part of curl's credentials
when authenticating to a server/proxy. Make it part of `struct Curl_creds`.
Change code to use `creds` to obtain a service name. By tying creds used
to the connection, connection reuse is also only allowed when the service
name matches.
Closes#21585
Authorizdation credentials are kept in `struct Curl_creds`. This contains:
* `user`: the username, maybe the empty string
* `passwd`: the password, maybe the empty string
* `sasl_authzid`: the SASL authz value, maybe the empty string
* `oauth_bearer`: the OAUTH bearer token, maybe the empty string
* `source`: where the credentials from from
* `refcount`: a reference counter to link/unkink creds
A `creds` with all values empty is equivalent to NULL, e.g. no `creds`
instance. With reference counting, `creds` can be linked/unlinked
in several places.
See docs/internals/CREDENTIALS.md for use.

The CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_* options are documented to verify the
host at connect time and not for connection reuse. Once the SSH host has
been deemed okay, it remains okay as long as the connection survives.
In addition: this function currently always returned TRUE since the
pointers have been NULLed in the SSH backend code before this function
is called.

`struct Curl_peer` keeps information about a communication endpoint
together. It will replace `conn->host` and `conn->conn_to_host` and
proxyinfo host. It will also become part of `struct ssl_peer`.
It has a reference counter, so an instance can be shared between
connections and filters.
Elminiates `conn->host` and `conn->connect_to_host`, used in the
proxyinfo structures. Passed to DNS resolution and socks filters, etc.
Pass peer to http proxy and socks tunnel filters. Use peer in dns filter
and resolving. Make `Curl_peer` a member in the `struct ssl_peer`.
Add `docs/internals/PEERS.md` for documentation.
Closes#21472
So that CURLcode failure is correct and not figured out later via
`conn->bits.proxy`. Add the flag to the async struct.
`for_proxy` is figured out by the caller of Curl_resolv() when it
figures out which host/proxy name it wants the addresses for.
Remove CONN_IS_PROXIED macro as no longer needed.

- make sure all UNITTEST prototypes mark in which unit test they are used,
with "@unittest" markup
- make sure all UNITTEST functions do not use Curl_ prefix, as that is a
prefix we use for global private functions and these functions are static
and therefore not global and the prefix is wrong
- drop UNITTEST for functions not used in unit tests
- make the extract-unit-protos script highlight the above issues if found
- extract-unit-protos now also outputs the unit test number for all the
generated protos in lib/unitprotos.h to aid readers. It also adds the source
file and line number where the proto originates from.
- extract-unit-protos now exits with a non-zero value if any of the above
warnings are triggered
- cf-dns: Curl_cf_dns_result => static cf_dns_result
- hostip: Curl_ipv6works => static ipv6works
- url: remove Curl_setup_conn() - not used anymore

- allow to specify when they are wanted on starting a resolve
- match dns cache entries accordingly. An entry which never
tried to get HTTPS-RRs is no answer for a resolve that wants
it.
- fix late arrivals of resolve answers to match the "async"
records that started them - if it still exists.
- provide for multiple "async" resolves in a transfer at the
same time. We may need to resolve an IP interface while the
main connection resolve has not finished yet.
- allow lookup of HTTPS-RR information as soon as it is
available, even if A/AAAA queries are still ongoing.
For this, the "async" infrastructure is changed:
- Defined bits for DNS queries `CURL_DNSQ_A`, `CURL_DNSQ_AAAA`
and `CURL_DNSQ_HTTPS`. These replace `ip_version` which says
nothing about HTTPS.
Use them in dns cache entries for matching.
- enhance the `async->id` to be a unique `uint32_t` for
resolves inside one multi. This is weak, as the id may
wrap around. However it is combined with the `mid` of
the easy handle, making collisions highly unlikely.
`data->state.async` is only accessed in few places where
the mid/async-id match is performed.
- vtls: for ECH supporting TLS backends (openssl, rustls, wolfssl),
retrieve the HTTPS-RR information from the dns connection filter.
Delay the connect if the HTTPS-RR is needed, but has not
been resolved yet.
The implementation of all this is complete for the threaded
resolver. c-ares resolver and DoH do not take advantage of
all new async features yet. To be done in separate PRs.
Details:
c-ares: cleanup settings and initialisation. Any ares channel
is only being created on starting a resolve and propagating
operations in setopt.c to the channel are not helpful.
Changed threaded+ares pollset handling so that they do not
overwrite each others `ASYNC_NAME` timeouts.
Add trace name 'threads' for tracing thread queue and
pool used by threaded resolver.
Closes#21175
New connection filter `cf-dns` that manages DNS queries. If hands
out addresses and HTTPS-RR records to anyone interested. Used by
HTTPS and IP happy eyeballing.
Information may become available *before* the libcurl "dns entry"
is complete, e.g. all queries have been answered. The cf-ip-happy
filter uses this information to start connection attempts as soon
as the first address is available.
The multi MSTATE_RESOLVING was removed. A new connection always
goes to MSTATE_CONNECTING. The connectdata bit `dns_resolved`
indicates when DNS information is complete. This is used for
error reporting and starting the progress meter.
Removed dns entries `data->state.dns[i]`, as the `cf-dns` filter
now keeps the reference now.
Many minor tweaks for making this work and pass address information
around safely.
Closes#21027
Use a thread queue and pool for asnyc threaded DNS resolves.
Add pytest test_21_* for verification.
Add `CURLMOPT_RESOLVE_THREADS_MAX` to allow applications to
resize the thread pool used.
Add `CURLMOPT_QUICK_EXIT` to allow applications to skip thread
joins when cleaning up a multi handle. Multi handles in
`curl_easy_perform()` inherit this from `CURLOPT_QUICK_EXIT`.
Add several debug environment variables for testing.

Replace the `volatile int dirty` with a reference counter
protected by a mutex when available.
Solve the problem of when to call application's lock function
by adding a volatile flag that indicates a share has been added
to easy handles in its lifetime. That flag ever goes from
FALSE to TRUE, so volatile might work (in the absence of a mutex).
(The problem is that the lock/unlock functions need 2-3
`curl_share_setopt()` invocations to become usable and there
is no way of telling if the third will ever happen. Calling
the lock function before the 3rd setopt may crash the
application.)
When removing a share from an easy handle (or replacing it with
another share), detach the easy connection on a share with a
connection pool.
When cleaning up a share, allow this even if it is still used in
easy handles. It will be destroyed when the reference count
drops to 0.
Closes#20870
- Rename `Curl_resolv_unlink()` to `Curl_dns_entry_unlink()`.

- Add `Curl_dnscache_add_negative()` to put a "negative" entry
into the cache.

Curl_1st_err() does not return the second error if the first result is

CURLE_AGAIN as a not-a-real-error case.
