Add test1715 to check proper handling of chunked transfer
encoding in CONNECT responses. Change proxy error code from
56 (RECV_ERROR) for everything to 7 (COULDNT_CONNECT) when
the server response could be read successfully, but establishing
the connection is not possible (http status code wrong).
Adapt several test expectations from 56 to 7.
Closes#21084
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.

Verify if lines are not longer than 192 characters. Also verify if lines
have less than 79 repeat spaces (and fix one fallout).
To improve readability by avoiding long lines and to prevent adding
overly long lines with text that may go unnoticed in an editor or diff
viewer.
In addition to pre-existing line length limits: 79 for C, 132 for CMake
sources.
Also:
- spacecheck: fix/harden allowlist regexes.
- spacecheck: tidy-up quotes and simplify escaping.
- spacecheck: allow folding strings with repeat spaces.
- GHA: fix a suppressed shellcheck warning.
- GHA/macos: simplify by dropping brew bundle.
- test1119.pl: precompile a regex.

that's lost it relevance.

The two bitmask constants for *CLEAR_DNS and *CLEAR_CONNS were
duplicates (both set to 1), so they cannot be distinguished and both
actions fire.
This shipped in public releases since 8.16.0 to and include 8.19.0.
This fix adds CURLMNWC_CLEAR_ALL to be the new 1, and it now implies all
bits. The DNS and CONNS defines get two new bits (2, 4).

PowerPC64 (both big-endian and little-endian) supports efficient
unaligned memory access, similar to x86. This extends the existing
fast path that avoids byte-by-byte loads in the MD5 and MD4 SET/GET
macros.
On POWER8 ppc64le, this eliminates 3 shifts + 3 ORs per 32-bit word
load, replacing them with a single lwz (or lwbrx on big-endian).

single commit within the last year

Closes#20673
As code checks `curltime` values for zero and interprets this
as not-initialized or "forever" in several places, make sure
`curlx_now()` never returns a zero timestamp.
Closes#21034
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.

Require CMake 3.18 (2020-07-15) or newer, up from 3.7 (2016-11-11)
prior to this patch.
This requirement also applies to the distributed `curl-config.cmake`.
To allow dropping compatibility code maintained for old versions, and to
use features which were unpractical in separate code paths. Also to make
testing, documentation and development easier, CI builds faster due to
CMake performance improvements over time. (e.g. integration tests on
macOS run 8x faster (10 minutes is now under 1.5m) in CI, 2.5x faster on
Windows.)
CMake offers pre-built binaries for major platforms. They work without
an install step, just by unpacking and pointing the cmake command to
them. Making upgrades easy in many cases:
https://cmake.org/download/https://cmake.org/files/https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/releases
CMake 3.18 brings these feature as generally available when building or
consuming curl/libcurl:
LTO support, improved performance, `pkg-config` and interface target
support, `OBJECT` target (for faster libcurl builds), modern invocation
with `-S`/`-B` options, better support for custom linker options,
FetchContent, `GnuTLS::GnuTLS` target, `--verbose` and `--install`
options, `CMAKE_GENERATOR` env, last but not least unity mode and Ninja
generator.
For maximum build speed, use:
`-DCMAKE_UNITY_BUILD=ON -DCURL_DROP_UNUSED=ON`
As for deprecations, C++11 is required to build CMake itself, which may
be a limit on some platforms. autotools continues to cover them.

Closes#20734
- Split WINSOCK and POSIX code in `multi_wait()` as the ifdef'ery
was becoming unreadable
- define `ENABLE_WAKEUP` to mean the wakeup socketpair is enabled,
no additional USE_WINSOCK check needed. Under WINSOCK
`ENABLE_WAKEUP` is not defined, so it's availability is as before
under the double defined() checks
- When the multi handle has "alive" transfers, the admin handle's
pollset include the wakeup receive socket. This results in the
admin handle running when someone uses `curl_multi_wakeup()`.
- Without any "alive" transfers, the wakeup socket is removed from
the pollset. Otherwise, event based processing would never finish,
eg. leave the event loop.
- The wakeup socket was never registered for event processing before,
e.g. `curl_multi_wakeup()` never worked in that mode.
- Adjust test exepectations on socket callback invocations and
number of sockets appearing in waitfds sets.
