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 |

include
Public include files for libcurl, external users.
They are all placed in the curl subdirectory here for better fit in any kind of environment. You must include files from here using...
#include <curl/curl.h>
... style and point the compiler's include path to the directory holding the curl subdirectory. It makes it more likely to survive future modifications.
The public curl include files can be shared freely between different platforms and different architectures.
