When doing HTTP/2 and HTTP/3, it is possible to achieve quite a massive
parallelism so limiting this to 300 seems restrictive.
With other protocols, going beyond 300-400 might not be recommended but
curl does not have to enforce the limit.
Closes#18068
Before this patch the signal handler called `logmsg()` which in turn
called `printf()` variants (internal implementations), and `FILE *`
functions, `localtime()`. Some of these called `malloc`/`free`, which
isn't supported in s signal handler. Replace them with `write` calls,
losing some logging functionality.
Also:
- De-dupe and move `STD*_FILENO` macros to `lib/curl_setup.h`. Revert
the `src` definition to point to `stderr`, instead of `tool_stderr`.

Linux CI run with the thread sanitizer going crazy when
hitting the signal handler in test 1238 and 1242 (TFTP):

Earlier this year we changed our own stderr variable to use the standard
name `stderr` (to avoid bugs where someone is using `stderr` instead of
the curl-tool specific variable). This solution needed to override the
standard `stderr` symbol via the preprocessor. This in turn didn't play
well with unity builds and caused curl tool to crash or stay silent due
to an uninitialized stderr. This was a hard to find issue, fixed by
manually breaking out one file from the unity sources.
To avoid two these two tricks, this patch implements a different
solution: Restore using our own local variable for our stderr output and
leave `stderr` as-is. To avoid using `stderr` by mistake, add a
`checksrc` rule (based on logic we already used in lib for `strerror`)
that detects any `stderr` use in `src` and points to using our own
variable instead: `tool_stderr`.

- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them
- saves us from pointless churn
- git keeps history for us
- the year range is kept in COPYING
checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements
Closes#10205
Add licensing and copyright information for all files in this repository. This
either happens in the file itself as a comment header or in the file
`.reuse/dep5`.
This commit also adds a Github workflow to check pull requests and adapts
copyright.pl to the changes.
Closes#8869
This is done by making sure each individual transfer is first added to a
linked list as then they can be performed serially, or at will, in
parallel.
Closes#3804
- replace tabs with spaces where possible
- remove line ending spaces
- remove double/triple newlines at EOF
- fix a non-UTF-8 character
- cleanup a few indentations/line continuations
in manual examples
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/3037
Configuration files such as curl_config.h and all config-*.h no longer exist
nor are generated/copied into 'src' directory, now these only exist in 'lib'
directory from where curl tool sources uses them.
Additionally old src/setup.h has been refactored into src/tool_setup.h which
now pulls lib/setup.h
The possibility of a makefile needing an include path adjustment exists.
