docs/libcurl: generate PROTOCOLS from meta-data
Remove the PROTOCOLS section from the source files completely and
instead generate them based on the header data in the curldown files.

It also generates TLS backend information for options marked for TLS as
protocol.

# NAME
CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD - get the specified size of the upload
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD,
double *content_length);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the specified size of the upload. Since
7.19.4, this returns -1 if the size is not known.
CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD_T(3) is a newer replacement that returns a
more sensible variable type.
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
/* Perform the upload */
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(!res) {
/* check the size */
double cl;
res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD, &cl);
if(!res) {
printf("Size: %.0f\n", cl);
}
}
}
}

# AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.6.1. Deprecated since 7.55.0.
# RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
