When curl returns an error when told to save output in a local file, this
option removes that saved file before exiting. This prevents curl from
leaving a partial file in the case of an error during transfer.

If the output is not a file, this option has no effect.
curl: add --remove-on-error If a transfer returns an error, using this option makes curl remove the leftover downloded (partial) local file before exiting. Added test 376 to verify Closes #8503 2022-02-24 17:30:10 +08:00			`Long: remove-on-error`
