GnuTLS 3.8.11 started requiring a nettle version new enough to be
missing from Ubuntu LTS released a year ago. To keep up testing it,
build nettle from source. Besides the necessary one time effort this
has the downside that nettle updates now need to be done manually
a couple of times per year when renovate detects one. (if I got the
renovate formula correct to catch the tag format).
Also:
- switch the local GnuTLS build to use the release tarball instead of
the Git repo and calling the script `bootstrap`. The script could
potentially download source code using the cleartext `git:` protocol.
It's also downloading lots of content, including a full OpenSSL repo.

This reverts commit a439fc0e37.
It requires a version of libnettle that is not included in these Ubuntu
versions: "Libnettle 3.10 was not found"

Fix SC2046: "Quote this to prevent word splitting."

Also:
- shellcheck.sh: add `set -eu`.
- shellcheck.sh, yamlcheck.sh: always run from repo root.
- pass `--` before passing the list of files, where missing.
- badwords.pl, cleancmd.pl: rework to accept `git ls-files` arguments.

It also does shellcheck on `run:` elements, overlapping with
the homegrown `shellcheck-ci.sh` with the same purpose. But it also does
more and perhaps could replace the script too, especially in curl
sub-repos.
Also:
- GHA/macos: delete potentially useful, but commented, and ultimately
unused, non-default Xcode-testing logic. It's causing unused matrix
exceptions, upsetting actionlint.

Make autotools and cmake detect DES support in OpenSSL and mbedTLS.
Forward feature macros to C and omit NTLM from the feature preview list.
Use the feature macros in source. This ensure that `-V` output matches
the preview.
OpenSSL doesn't support DES when built with `no-des` or `no-deprecated`.
mbedTLS 4.x no longer supports it, and it's possible to disable it in
<4 with `scripts/config.py unset MBEDTLS_DES_C`.
Before this patch this worked for
mbedTLS 4 only, and with a regression for pending PR #16973.
Also:
- drop NTLM feature check from `curl_setup.h` in favour of autotools/
cmake feature macros. This makes `curl_setup.h` no longer need
to include an mbedTLS header, which in turn makes tests/server build
without depending on mbedTLS.
Fixing, in #16973:
```
In file included from tests/server/first.h:40,
from bld/tests/server/servers.c:3:
lib/curl_setup.h:741:10: fatal error: mbedtls/version.h: No such file or directory
741 | #include <mbedtls/version.h>

`curl_setup.h` to each source which consumes mbedTLS.
- GHA/http3-linux: drop workaround that disabled NTLM for
`no-deprecated` OpenSSL builds.

- http3-linux: move local nghttpx (nghttp2) build to openssl (from
quictls). Also tried LibreSSL, but it made some HTTP/2 tests fails.
- http3-linux: drop quictls ngtcp2 build.
- http3-linux: build local openssl with `no-deprecated`.
(previously tested in the quictls local build.)
- http3-linux: explicitly disable LDAP in cmake openssl jobs.
cmake builds auto-detect OpenLDAP (autotools don't), and when enabled,
linking curl fails because system `libsasl.so` requires MD5 openssl
functions, which are missing from openssl no-deprecated builds.
- macos: move options tested in quictls jobs to other ones.
- linux: drop unused quictls local build. (it was used for msh3.)
Follow-up to 91138b014d#17729
- renovate: drop quictls bump detection.
Closes#18833
Also:
- point the source tarball to a working URL.
The GitHub release page misses the official source tarball for 4.1.1.
- GHA/linux: switch LibreSSL build to cmake (syncing with http3-linux.)
- GHA/macos: drop no longer needed LibreSSL build workaround.
Closes#18792
To avoid typos and non-existing options passed to `./configure` in CI

Also delete obsolete option `--enable-test-bundles` from Circle CI jobs.

- requirements.txt: shorten copyright headers.
- requirements.txt: pin packages to versions.
- GHA/windows: use `tests/requirements.txt`.
Pick a `cryptography` package version that satifies both `impacket`

- GHA/checksrc: move pip deps into a new `requirements.txt`.
To make Dependabot detect and bump them.
- GHA/checksrc: replace apt packages for python test deps with pip
install `tests/**/requirements.txt` to a venv.
- GHA/checksrc: use venv and drop `--break-system-packages`.
- GHA/linux: fix to actually activate venvs.

Closes#18708
- fix `nghttp2` build to also build the `nghttpx` application.
Restore required `libc-ares-dev`. Also confirm that `libev-dev` is
required too. Document these requirements.
Follow-up to 0455d8772a#18509
- explicitly enable `nghttpx` for the `nghttp2` build to make it fail if
requirements aren't met:
```
configure: error: applications were requested (--enable-app) but dependencies are not met.
```
- explicitly install brotli, zstd, zlib for the dependency builds.
Of these, zstd and zlib are preinstalled. zlib is required for
`nghttpx`. zstd and brotli doesn't seem to be used, but keep them
there just in case and to match the test env.
Follow-up to 0455d8772a#18509
- enable brotli for `nghttpx`. It doesn't change the tests, and also
cost almost nothing, so I figure why not.
Closes#18522
- explicitly install `libldap-dev` to not rely on test-specific packages
installing it implicitly, to have the same `curl -V` output for each
TLS backend build pair.
Follow-up to 0455d8772a#18509
- install `libev-dev` for tests. It's a runtime dependency for
the local build of `nghttpx`. Missing it made pytest skip 178 tests.
Also skewing the 'Gain' time. I estimate it to account for 3 minutes,
making the total gain ~20 minutes.
Follow-up to 0455d8772a#18509
(It may be a better solution to disable libev for the local nghttp2
build, to avoid this hidden dependency.)
- fix quiche jobs to use the local build of `libnghttp2`.
- stop installing the `clang` package for Windows-cross. `clang` and
`clang-tidy` tools are preinstalled on the Ubuntu 24.04 runner.
Closes#18519
In the last couple of months some jobs started taking a lot of time and
often timing out due to slow `apt install` from the Azure Ubuntu mirror.
The jobs affected were those that installed large packages:
GHA/http3-linux and the 3 cross-build jobs in GHA/windows.
This patch reduces the installed packaged to the minimum required
to complete the jobs. Saving a minute+ for each http3-linux job (a total
of 20+ minutes for the workflow.) Also saving bandwidth and reducing
the chance for long downloads or timeouts with slow Azure repos.
Details:
- http3: delete redundant packages from the `build-cache` job.
- http3: install gnutls dependencies for gnutls jobs only.
- http3: do not install test dependencies in jobs not running tests.
- http3: drop redundant packages from the curl jobs.
- Windows-cross: replace `mingw-w64` with `gcc-mingw-w64-x86-64-win32`
for the 3 Windows cross-build job. Dropping C++, 32-bit, and 64-bit
POSIX-threaded parts. Saving time and significant bandwidth for each
of the 3 jobs:
Download size: 277 MB -> 65 MB (installed: 1300 MB -> 400 MB)
- Windows-cross: restore previous job time limit of 15m (from 45m)
