Add support for command line variables. Set variables with --variable
name=content or --variable name@file (where "file" can be stdin if set
to a single dash (-)).
Variable content is expanded in option parameters using "{{name}}"
(without the quotes) if the option name is prefixed with
"--expand-". This gets the contents of the variable "name" inserted, or
a blank if the name does not exist as a variable. Insert "{{" verbatim
in the string by prefixing it with a backslash, like "\\{{".
Import an environment variable with --variable %name. It makes curl exit
with an error if the environment variable is not set. It can also rather
get a default value if the variable does not exist, using =content or
@file like shown above.
Example: get the USER environment variable into the URL:
--variable %USER
--expand-url = "https://example.com/api/{{USER}}/method"
When expanding variables, curl supports a set of functions that can make
the variable contents more convenient to use. It can trim leading and
trailing white space with "trim", output the contents as a JSON quoted
string with "json", URL encode it with "url" and base 64 encode it with
"b64". To apply functions to a variable expansion, add them colon
separated to the right side of the variable. They are then performed in
a left to right order.
Example: get the contents of a file called $HOME/.secret into a variable
called "fix". Make sure that the content is trimmed and percent-encoded
sent as POST data:
--variable %HOME=/home/default
--expand-variable fix@{{HOME}}/.secret
--expand-data "{{fix:trim:url}}"

Closes#11346
- added and documented --trace-ids to prepend (after the timestamp)
the transfer and connection identifiers to each verbose log line
- format is [n-m] with `n` being the transfer id and `m` being the
connection id. In case there is not valid connection id, print 'x'.
- Log calls with a handle that has no transfer id yet, are written
without any ids.

These are two boolean options to ask curl to use the native OS's CA
store when verifying TLS servers. For peers and for proxies
respectively.
They currently only have an effect for curl on Windows when built to use
OpenSSL for TLS.

If the previous line starts with if/while/for AND ends with a closed
parenthesis and there's an equal number of open and closed parentheses
on that line, verify that this line is indented $indent more steps, if
not a cpp line.
Also adjust the fall-out from this fix.
Closes#11054
- freopen stderr with the user-specified file (--stderr file) instead of
using a separate 'errors' stream.
- In tool_setup.h override stdio.h's stderr macro as global variable
tool_stderr.
Both freopen and overriding the stderr macro are necessary because if
the user-specified filename is "-" then stdout is assigned to
tool_stderr and no freopen takes place. See the PR for more information.

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/10673
- renamed the struct field to 'silent' to match the cmdline option
- make --show-error toggle independently of --silent
- make --silent independent of ->noprogress as well
By doing this, the three options --silent, --no-progress-meter and
--show-error should work independently of each other and also work with
and without '--no-' prefix as documented.

If the run-time libcurl is too old to support feature names, the name
array is created locally from the bit masks. This is the only sequence
left that uses feature bit masks.
Closes#9583
This option adds a piece of data, usually a name + value pair, to the
end of the URL query part. The syntax is identical to that used for
--data-urlencode with one extension:
If the argument starts with a '+' (plus), the rest of the string is
provided as-is unencoded.
This allows users to "build" query parts with options and URL encoding
even when not doing GET requests, which the already provided option -G
(--get) is limited to.
This idea was born in a Twitter thread.
Closes#9691
The read callback can timeout if there's nothing to read within the
given maximum period. Example use case is when doing "curl -m 3
telnet://example.com" or anything else that expects input on stdin or
similar that otherwise would "hang" until something happens and then not
respect the timeout.
This fixes KNOWN_BUG 8.1, first filed in July 2009.

Replace bit mask protocol sets by null-terminated arrays of protocol
tokens. These are the addresses of the protocol names returned by
curl_version_info().
Protocol names are sorted case-insensitively before output to satisfy CI
tests matches consistency.
The protocol list returned by curl_version_info() is augmented with all
RTMP protocol variants.
Test 1401 adjusted for new alpha ordered output.
Closes#9546
As they are now rejected by the library, take care of not passing
disabled protocol names to CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS_STR and
CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS_STR.
Rather than using the CURLPROTO_* constants, dynamically assign protocol
numbers based on the order they are listed by curl_version_info().
New type proto_set_t implements prototype bit masks: it should therefore
be large enough to accomodate all library-enabled protocols. If not,
protocol numbers beyond the bit count of proto_set_t are recognized but
"inaccessible": when used, a warning is displayed and the value is
ignored. Should proto_set_t overflows, enabled protocols are reordered to
force those having a public CURLPROTO_* representation to be accessible.
Code has been added to subordinate RTMP?* protocols to the presence of
RTMP in the enabled protocol list, being returned by curl_version_info()
or not.
Next Protocol Negotiation is a TLS extension that was created and used
for agreeing to use the SPDY protocol (the precursor to HTTP/2) for
HTTPS. In the early days of HTTP/2, before the spec was finalized and
shipped, the protocol could be enabled using this extension with some
servers.
curl supports the NPN extension with some TLS backends since then, with
a command line option `--npn` and in libcurl with
`CURLOPT_SSL_ENABLE_NPN`.
HTTP/2 proper is made to use the ALPN (Application-Layer Protocol
Negotiation) extension and the NPN extension has no purposes
anymore. The HTTP/2 spec was published in May 2015.
Today, use of NPN in the wild should be extremely rare and most likely
totally extinct. Chrome removed NPN support in Chrome 51, shipped in
June 2016. Removed in Firefox 53, April 2017.

- Clamp --parallel-max to MAX_PARALLEL (300) instead of resetting to
default value.
Previously, --parallel-max 300 would use 300 concurrent transfers, but
--parallel-max 301 would unexpectedly use only 50. This change clamps
higher values to the maximum (ie --parallel-max 301 would use 300).
