Job `name:` now mandatory in zizmor.
Also:
- enclose `name:` values in single-quotes, for uniformity.
- drop `name: checkout` where set, for uniformity.
- dist: also install with cmake.
- dist: replace `make` with `cmake --build` for cmake.
(to make this make-tool agnostic)
- appveyor-status: double-quote shell arguments.
- tweak existing names to be shorter, to sync terms and style across
jobs and steps.

`brotlicommon` is necessary when linking brotli statically.
E.g. on Alpine Linux with `PKG_CONFIG='pkg-config --static'`.
It also syncs brotli libs listed in `libcurl.pc` and `curl-config` with
those generated by cmake, which already listed `brotlicommon` there.
Also:
- remove workaround from GHA/configure-vs-cmake CI jobs.

Fixes#17678Closes#17723
zizmor 1.9.0 effectively bans using GHA macros within shell script
snippets. Rework them to pass GHA macro values via envs and use those
envs in shell snippets. `${{ env.* }}` macros could be converted
to native env references after making their names shell-compatible.
Envs and shell commands can no longer be used in GHA macro values. Most
cases could be fixed by using literals. Passing quoted values with
spaces combined with other args also doesn't work anymore. This was
replaced by passing them separately.
Despite the initial complications, avoiding GHA macros in scripts does
seems to make the CI code reasonable cleaner. It also makes it possible
to analyze the scripts with shellcheck, finding subtle issues that went
unnoticed till now.
Also:
- un-ignore and fix three existing zizmor `template-injection` issues.
- add script to extract and shellcheck all shell code stored within GHA
and Circle CI YAML files.
- add CI job to run this script.
- fix shellcheck issues discovered.
- fix minor differences between cmake and autotools FreeBSD jobs.
- merge cmake/autotools FreeBSD jobs to avoid developing unwanted
differences again.
- fix/sync quote use across shell code.
- replace `$HOME` with `~` or literal where it made sense.
- replace most `brew --prefix` with literals.
- move all curl install tests to the `curl-install*` prefix.
- add missing curl install tests to cygwin/msys/mingw/*bsd.
- pipe to `tar` instead of storing downloads on disk.
- drop unnecessary `PKG_CONFIG_PATH` when building nghttp3.

This step could take from 5 seconds to 5 minutes, sometimes making it
run out of its time slot. It affected 60 CI jobs.
Saving an estimated minimum of 5 minutes per CI run.

Sometimes it's useful to have a look at the generated `libcurl.pc` and
`curl-config` files.
`cmp-config.pl` normalizes them before diffing, thus doesn't show their
original content.
Closes#16981
Fix `HAVE_GETHOSTBYNAME_R_*` feature detections always failing with
`CURL_WERROR=ON` due to stripping a const.
Also fix the GHA/cmake-vs-configure to enable `CURL_WERROR=ON` to sync
this setting with `./configure` which enables it by default. With that,
CI detects this issue.

Add CMake test project consuming curl via these methods:
`FetchContent`, `add_subdirectory()`, `find_package()`.
Also:
- GHA/distcheck: run these tests in CI.
- cmakelint: exclude a warning for calling "wonky-cased" built-in
CMake functions, such as `FetchContent_Declare()`.
Closes#16126
- drop `--quiet 2` option where used, to have uniform output.
- replace `apt` with `apt-get` in one job. sync options with rest.
- replace deprecated `apt-key` command with the alternative recommended
by `apt-key(8)`.
- drop stray `cd /tmp`, no longer needed after migrating to GHA.
- shorten `--option Dpkg::Use-Pty=0` to `-o Dpkg::Use-Pty=0`.
- add `-o Dpkg::Use-Pty=0` to hide `apt-get` progress bars taking
vertical log space, where missing.
- drop `-y --no-install-suggests --no-install-recommends` `apt-get`
options. They are the default in the ubuntu-24.04 image.
- GHA/distcheck: move `name:` to top in steps where not there.
- scripts/cijobs.pl: catch `apt-get` lines with the `-o` option.
Closes#16127
- move checkout step right before use.
- quotes in yaml and bash.
- unfold single-line run commands.
- set `CMAKE_WARN_DEPRECATED=OFF` for CMake with Android NDK to avoid
a wall of useless deprecation warnings hiding useful output.
These warnings happen in 3rd-party scripts, and unfixable in curl.
Closes#16042
- make `curl_dependency_option()` more generic.
- extend `CURL_BROTLI` and `CURL_ZSTD` options to accept
`AUTO` in addition to existing `ON` and `OFF`.
- change `CURL_BROTLI` and `CURL_ZSTD` option default
to `AUTO`. Was: `OFF`.
It brings cmake behavior closer to `./configure`.
Still different:
- `./configure` defaults to `off` which means to check default
locations. cmake checks more locations by default.
(Also tried `NO_CMAKE_PATH`, but then it checked less locations.)
- cmake returns both `brotlicommon` and `brotlidec` libs,
while `./configure` only returns the latter.
- ci: drop explicit cmake options, that are now unnecessary.
- GHA/configure-vs-cmake: make adjustments to make tests pass.
Closes#15431
Add CI checker to compare `libcurl.pc` and `curl-config` files
generated by autotools and cmake builds.
Fix differences and apply tiny cleanups:
- curl-config: use single-quotes for literals.
- curl-config: quote all variables.
- curl-config: replace double with single quotes in a substituted value
that's always literal (`@prefix@`).
- libcurl.pc: spelling in `Description:`.
- libcurl.pc: avoid substitution in a comment.
- cmake: fill `libdir` with `${exec_prefix}` instead of a literal.
To sync with './configure'.
- configure: fix `CURL_CA_BUNDLE` value to not generate nested quotes
in `curl-config`.
- configure: add missing `LDFLAGS` to `Libs.private` in `libcurl.pc`.
To sync with CMake.
- cmake: skip adding `CMAKE_C_IMPLICIT_LINK_LIBRARIES` for MINGW and
UNIX. They added these values as seen in CI:
MINGW: `-lmingw32 -lgcc -lmoldname -lmingwex -ladvapi32 -lshell32 -luser32 -lkernel32 -lmingw32 -lgcc -lmoldname -lmingwex`
Linux: `-lgcc -lgcc_s -lc -lgcc -lgcc_s`
- cmake: delete FIXME about enabling libssh2 by default.
`./configure` has special defaults for these packages (called: "off"):
brotli, zstd, libpsl, libssh2, libssh, wolfssl, librtmp
It looks for them, but only at system locations, which makes them
never detected e.g. on macOS. CMake doesn't offer such default mode
for now.
- GHA/macos: drop now redundant `-DCURL_DISABLE_LDAPS=ON`.
- cmake: use `CMAKE_INSTALL_INCLUDEDIR` and `CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR`
instead of hardcoded `include`/`lib` when generating `libcurl.pc`.
Updates to the GHA workflow:
- move autotools out-of-tree and rename cmake out-of-tree directory
to `bld_cm` to tell it's cmake.
- disable static libcurl for `./configure` to match cmake.
- enable `pkg-config` debug output with `./configure`.
- dump list of Homebrew packages on macOS.
- dump `./configure` detailed logs.
- disable zstd and brotli for Linux, to match cmake.
There remain differences, mostly due to detection order and method. Also
some values are inherently different when using CMake and autotools,
such as `--cc`, `--configure`. autotools also generates duplicates for
`-lssl` and `-lcrypto`. macOS LDAP wants to link `-lber` while autotools
doesn't. Some build defaults are also different in autotools and cmake.
These differences are smoothened out for now by the checker script, or
via build options. Notice that lib order (a dupes) _can_ be significant
in some cases. E.g. the binutils linker is infamous for that on Windows.
Closes#14681
- configure: disable pthreads by default on Windows.
- configure: disable detecting `fseeko()` on Windows.
(It exists in mingw-w64 2.0.0 and newer, but it's permanently ignored
in CMake, as this function is never necessary on Windows.)
- extend existing exceptions with their Windows variants.
- `lib/formdata.c`: prioritize `_fseeki64()` over `fseeko()`.
To reduce the difference between Windows builds, which now all use
`_fseeki64()`.
- cmake: perm-enable `HAVE_DIRENT_H` and `HAVE_OPENDIR` for mingw-w64,
to match configure.
Follow-up to bfe54b0e88#13137
This in theory could make the dir listing feature work in mingw-w64
build, but in my tests (on WINE) it failed at the preceding `open()`
call.
- cmake: perm-enable `HAVE_STRINGS_H` and `HAVE_UTIME_H` for mingw-w64,
to match configure. (They are wrappers and make no difference in the build.)
Also:
- configure: sync `USE_MANUAL` macro with cmake, by only setting it for
`src`. Drop checker exception.
- CI: use `--disable-dependency-tracking` in existing jobs.
- CI: install packages before git checkout, in existing jobs.
Closes#14678
Also:
- explicitly disable libpsl in CI to avoid configure warning, where
necessary.
- add TODO to make this warning an error (to match autotools.)
Follow-up to 2998874bb6#12661Closes#14533
- sync cmake macOS `OS` value manually with the autotools one.
- stop exporting/subst-ing `HAVE_OPENSSL_QUIC` from autotools.
The variable was only used internally.
- exclude a dependency detection symbol.
- allow to run when the workflow itself was updated.
- simplify cmake command.
- fix indentation.
Closes#14546
Uses scripts/cmp-config.pl two compare two curl_config.h files,
presumbly generated with configure and cmake. It displays the
differences and filters out a lot of known lines we ignore.
The script also shows the matches that were *not* used. Possibly
subjects for removal.
Closes#11964
