curldown: make 'added-in:' a mandatory header field
- generate AVAILABILITY manpage sections automatically - for consistent
  wording

- allows us to double-check against other documumentation (symbols-in-versions
  etc)

- enables proper automation/scripting based on this data

- lots of them were wrong or missing in the manpages

- several of them repeated (sometimes mismatching) backend support info

Add test 1488 to verify "added-in" version numbers against
symbols-in-versions.

Closes #14217

# NAME
CURLOPT_SSLENGINE - SSL engine identifier
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSLENGINE, char *id);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string as parameter. It is used as the
identifier for the crypto engine you want to use for your private key.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
option.
# DEFAULT
NULL
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
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_SSLENGINE, "dynamic");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
~~~
# RETURN VALUE
CURLE_OK - Engine found.
CURLE_SSL_ENGINE_NOTFOUND - Engine not found, or OpenSSL was not built with
engine support.
CURLE_SSL_ENGINE_INITFAILED - Engine found but initialization failed.
CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN - Option not built in, OpenSSL is not the SSL backend.
CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION - Option not recognized.
CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY - Insufficient heap space.
