Daniel Gustafsson 8d67c61c47 curldown: Fix email address in Copyright

The curldown conversion accidentally replaced daniel@haxx.se with
just daniel.se.  This reverts back to the proper email address in
the curldown docs as well as in a few other stray places where it
was incorrect (while unrelated to curldown).

Reviewed-by: Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>
Closes: #12997

CURLOPT_RANDOM_FILE (3)

NAME

CURLOPT_EGDSOCKET - EGD socket path

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_EGDSOCKET, char *path);

DESCRIPTION

Deprecated option. It serves no purpose anymore.

Pass a char pointer to the null-terminated path name to the Entropy Gathering Daemon socket. It is used to seed the random engine for TLS.

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

DEFAULT

NULL

PROTOCOLS

All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_EGDSOCKET, "/var/egd.socket");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

AVAILABILITY

If built with TLS enabled. Only the OpenSSL backend uses this, and only with OpenSSL versions before 1.1.0.

This option was deprecated in 7.84.0.

RETURN VALUE

Returns CURLE_OK if TLS is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
