The `connectdata` members `sockfd` and `writesockfd` needed to by either
CURL_SOCKET_BAD or a copy of one of `conn->sock[2]`. When equal to one,
that index was used to send/recv/poll the proper socket or connection
filter chain.
Replace those with `send_idx` and `recv_idx` which are either -1, 0 or 1
to indicate which socket/filter to send/receive on.
Closes#18179
When a HTTP version has been negotiated via ALPN, set the member
`conn->httpversion_seen` accordingly. This allows pending transfers to
reuse multiplexed http connections before the response to the first
transfer has arrived.

`getsock()` calls operated on a global limit that could
not be configure beyond 16 sockets. This is no longer adequate
with the new happy eyeballing strategy.
Instead, do the following:
- make `struct easy_pollset` dynamic. Starting with
a minimal room for two sockets, the very common case,
allow it to grow on demand.
- replace all protocol handler getsock() calls with pollsets
and a CURLcode to return failures
- add CURLcode return for all connection filter `adjust_pollset()`
callbacks, since they too can now fail.
- use appropriately in multi.c and multi_ev.c
- fix unit2600 to trigger pollset growth

The `transport` to use for a transfer, e.g. TCP/QUIC/UNIX/UDP, is
initially selected by options and protocol used. This is set at the
`struct connectdata` as `transport` member.
During connection establishment, this transport may change due to
Alt-Svc or Happy-Eyeballing. Most common is the switch from TCP to QUIC.
Rename the connection member to `transport_wanted` and add a way to
query the connection for the transport in use via a new connection
filter query.
The filter query can also be used in the happy eyeballing attempts when
code needs to know which transport is used by the "filter below". This
happens in wolfssl initialization, as one example.
Closes#17923
Add a bitset `dirty` to the multi handle. The presence of a transfer int
he "dirty" set means: this transfer has something to do ASAP.
"dirty" is set by multiplexing protocols like HTTP/2 and 3 when
encountering response data for another transfer than the current one.
"dirty" is set by protocols that want to be called.
Implementation:
* just an additional `uint_bset` in the multi handle
* `Curl_multi_mark_dirty()` to add a transfer to the dirty set.
* `multi_runsingle()` clears the dirty bit of the transfer at
start. Without new dirty marks, this empties the set after
al dirty transfers have been run.
* `multi_timeout()` immediately gives the current time and
timeout_ms == 0 when dirty transfers are present.
* multi_event: marks all transfers tracked for a socket as dirty.
Then marks all expired transfers as dirty. Then it runs
all dirty transfers.
With this mechanism:
* Most uses of `EXPIRE_RUN_NOW` are replaced by `Curl_multi_mark_dirty()`
* `Curl_multi_mark_dirty()` is cheaper than querying if a transfer is
already dirty or set for timeout. There is no need to check, just do it.
* `data->state.select_bits` is eliminated. We need no longer to
simulate a poll event to make a transfer run.

cfilter/conn: change send/recv function signatures. Unify the
calling/return conventions in our send/receive handling.
Curl_conn_recv(), adjust pnread type
Parameter `pnread` was a `ssize_t *`, but `size_t *` is better since the
function returns any error in its `CURLcode` return value.

The checks for a connection being "too long idle" or "too old" where
rounding down the elapsed time to seconds before comparing to the
configured max values. This caused connections to be reused for up to
999ms longer than intended.
Change the compares to scale the configured seconds up to ms, so
connection will properly be "too old" 1 ms after the coonfigured values.
Fixes sporadic failures of test1542 on platforms where "sleep(2)"
returnes before 2 full seconds on the internal clock where passed.

The `struct Curl_dns_entry *` used to established a connection
do not have the connection's lifetime, but the transfer's lifetime
(of the transfer that initiates the connect).
`Curl_dns_entry *` is reference counted with the "dns cache". That
cache might be owned by the multi or the transfer's share. In the
share, the reference count needs updating under lock.
Therefore, the dns entry can only be kept *and* released using the
same transfer it was initially looked up from. But a connection is
often discarded using another transfer.
So far, the problem of this has been avoided in clearing the connection's
dns entries in the "multi_don()" handling. So, connections had NULL
dns entries after the initial transfers and its connect had been handled.
Keeping the dns entries in data->state seems therefore a better choice.
Also: remove the `struct Curl_dns_entry *` from the connect filters
contexts. Use `data->state.dns` every time instead and fail correctly
when not present and needed.

Move curlx_ functions into its own subdir.
The idea is to use the curlx_ prefix proper on these functions, and use
these same function names both in tool, lib and test suite source code.
Stop the previous special #define setup for curlx_ names.
The printf defines are now done for the library alone. Tests no longer
use the printf defines. The tool code sets its own defines. The printf
functions are not curlx, they are publicly available.
The strcase defines are not curlx_ functions and should not be used by
tool or server code.
dynbuf, warnless, base64, strparse, timeval, timediff are now proper
curlx functions.
When libcurl is built statically, the functions from the library can be
used as-is. The key is then that the functions must work as-is, without
having to be recompiled for use in tool/tests. This avoids symbol
collisions - when libcurl is built statically, we use those functions
directly when building the tool/tests. When libcurl is shared, we
build/link them separately for the tool/tests.

Change multi's book keeping of transfers to no longer use lists, but a
special table and bitsets for unsigned int values.
`multi-xfers` is the `uint_tbl` where `multi_add_handle()` inserts a new
transfer which assigns it a unique identifier `mid`. Use bitsets to keep
track of transfers that are in state "process" or "pending" or
"msgsent".
Use sparse bitsets to replace `conn->easyq` and event handlings tracking
of transfers per socket. Instead of pointers, keep the mids involved.
Provide base data structures and document them in docs/internal:
* `uint_tbl`: a table of transfers with `mid` as lookup key,
handing out a mid for adds between 0 - capacity.
* `uint_bset`: a bitset keeping unsigned ints from 0 - capacity.
* `uint_spbset`: a sparse bitset for keeping a small number of
unsigned int values
* `uint_hash`: for associating `mid`s with a pointer.
This makes the `mid` the recommended way to refer to transfers inside
the same multi without risk of running into a UAF.
Modifying table and bitsets is safe while iterating over them. Overall
memory requirements are lower as with the double linked list apprach.
Closes#16761
Adds a "meta_hash" to each easy handle for keeping special data during
operations. All meta data set needs to add its destructor callback, so
that meta data gets destroyed properly when the easy handle is cleaned
up or reset.
Add data->master_mid for "sub" transfers that belong to a "master" easy
handle. When a "sub" transfer is done, the corresponding "master" can
add a callback to be invoked. Used in DoH name resolution.
DoH: use easy meta hash to add internal structs for DoH name resolution.
One in each in each probe easy handle. When probes are done, response
data is copied from the probe to the initiating easy.
This allows DoH using transfers and their probes to be cleaned up in any
sequence correctly.
Fold DoH cleanup into the Curl_async_shutdown() and Curl_async_destroy()
functions.
Closes#16384
"asyn" is the internal name under which both c-ares and threaded
resolver operate. Make the naming more consistent. Implement the c-ares
resolver in `asyn-ares.*` and the threaded resolver in `asyn-thrdd.*`.
The common functions are in `asyn-base.c`.
When `CURLRES_ASYNCH` is defined, either of the two is used and
`data->state.async` exists. Members of that struct vary for the selected
implementation, but have the fields `hostname`, `port` and `ip_version`
always present. This are populated when the async resolving starts and
eliminate the need to pass them again when checking on the status and
processing the results of the resolving.
Add a `Curl_resolv_blocking()` to `hostip.h` that relieves FTP and SOCKS
from having to repeat the same code.
`Curl_resolv_check()` remains the function to check for status of
ongoing resolving. Now it also performs internally the check if the
needed DNS entry exists in the dnscache and if so, aborts the asnyc
operation. (libcurl right now does not check for duplicate resolve
attempts. an area for future improvements).
The number of functions in `asyn.h` has been reduced. There were subtle
difference in "cancel()" and "kill()" calls, both replaced by
`Curl_async_shutdown()` now. This changes behaviour for threaded
resolver insofar as the resolving thread is now always joined unless
`data->set.quick_exit` is set. Before this was only done on some code
paths. A future improvement would be a thread pool that keeps a limit
and also could handle joins more gracefully.
DoH, not previously tagged under "asny", has its struct `doh_probes` now
also in `data->state.async`, moved there from `data->req` because it
makes more sense. Further integration of DoH underneath the "asyn"
umbrella seems like a good idea.
