CURLINFO: remove 'get' and 'get the' from each short desc
The short descriptions describe the data each info retrieves. The info
itself does not 'get' the data.

This simplifies and shortens the descriptions and make them more
consistent.

NAME

CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME - time until the SSL/SSH handshake is completed

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME,
                           double *timep);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the start until the SSL/SSH connect/handshake to the remote host was completed. This time is most often close to the CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME(3) time, except for cases such as HTTP multiplexing where the pretransfer time can be delayed due to waits in line for the stream and more.

When a redirect is followed, the time from each request is added together.

See also the TIMES overview in the curl_easy_getinfo(3) man page.

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    double connect;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    if(CURLE_OK == res) {
      res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME, &connect);
      if(CURLE_OK == res) {
        printf("Time: %.1f", connect);
      }
    }
    /* always cleanup */
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}
