- Fix and move 'clean' code that removes the output and obj directories
trees from MakefileBuild.vc to Makefile.vc.
Prior to this change the 'clean' code did not work right because the
variables containing the directory names were not fully initialized and
the rmdir syntax was sometimes incorrect (typos). DIRDIST for example
was set to ..\builds\ and not ..\builds\$(CONFIG_NAME_LIB)\ so it would
remove the former and not the latter. If WITH_PREFIX was set then that
directory was removed instead.
Also, DIRDIST (the output directory) even if initialized should not be
removed by MakefileBuild.vc because by that time it could be set to a
user directory that may contain other files if WITH_PREFIX is set (eg we
don't want rmdir /s /q C:\usr\local). Therefore we remove from
Makefile.vc before any of that happens. I added a comment in both
makefiles explaining this.

- saves us from pointless churn

- the year range is kept in COPYING
checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements

`WANT_IDN_PROTOTYPES` was necessary to avoid using a header that came
via an optional package. MS stopped distributing this package some
years ago and the winidn definitions are part of standard headers (via
`windows.h`) since Vista.
Auto-detect Vista inside `lib/idn_win32.c` and enable the manual
definitions if building for an older Windows.
This allows to delete this manual knob from all build-systems.
Also drop the `_SAL_VERSION` sub-case:
Our manual definitions are now only enabled with old systems. We assume
that code analysis is not run on such systems, allowing us to delete the
SAL-friendly flavour of these.

Detecting headers and lib separately makes sense when headers come in
variations or with extra ones, but this wasn't the case here. These were
duplicate/parallel macros that we had to keep in sync with each other
for a working build. This patch leaves a single macro for each of these
dependencies:
- Rely on `HAVE_LIBZ`, delete parallel `HAVE_ZLIB_H`.
Also delete CMake logic making sure these two were in sync, along with
a toggle to turn off that logic, called `CURL_SPECIAL_LIBZ`.
Also delete stray `HAVE_ZLIB` defines.
There is also a `USE_ZLIB` variant in `lib/config-dos.h`. This patch
retains it for compatibility and deprecates it.
- Rely on `USE_LIBSSH2`, delete parallel `HAVE_LIBSSH2_H`.
Also delete `LIBSSH2_WIN32`, `LIBSSH2_LIBRARY` from
`winbuild/MakefileBuild.vc`, these have a role when building libssh2
itself. And `CURL_USE_LIBSSH`, which had no use at all.
Also delete stray `HAVE_LIBSSH2` defines.
- Rely on `USE_LIBSSH`, delete parallel `HAVE_LIBSSH_LIBSSH_H`.
Also delete `LIBSSH_WIN32`, `LIBSSH_LIBRARY` and `HAVE_LIBSSH` from
`winbuild/MakefileBuild.vc`, these were the result of copy-pasting the
libssh2 line, and were not having any use.
- Delete unused `HAVE_LIBPSL_H` and `HAVE_LIBPSL`.

This is significantly improves compilation time. For example in my

Prior to this change cl was invoked per .c file.

The biggest precaution this change brings:
DO NOT use post/pre-increments when passing arguments to the macros.

A static libcurl (ie winbuild mode=static) requires that the user define
CURL_STATICLIB when using it in their application. This is already
covered in the FAQ and INSTALL.md, but is a pretty important point so
now it's noted in the BUILD.WINDOWS.txt as well.

When libcurl is built with MODE=static, c-ares is forced into static
linkage too. That doesn't happen when MODE=dll so linker would break

- Disable warning C4127 "conditional expression is constant" globally
in curl_setup.h for when building with Microsoft's compiler.
This mainly affects building with the Visual Studio project files found
in the projects dir.
Prior to this change the cmake and winbuild build systems already
disabled 4127 globally for when building with Microsoft's compiler.
Also, 4127 was already disabled for all build systems in the limited
circumstance of the WHILE_FALSE macro which disabled the warning
specifically for while(0). This commit removes the WHILE_FALSE macro and
all other cruft in favor of disabling globally in curl_setup.
Background:
We have various macros that cause 0 or 1 to be evaluated, which would
cause warning C4127 in Visual Studio. For example this causes it:
#define Curl_resolver_asynch() 1
Full behavior is not clearly defined and inconsistent across versions.
However it is documented that since VS 2015 Update 3 Microsoft has
addressed this somewhat but not entirely, not warning on while(true) for
example.
Prior to this change some C4127 warnings occurred when I built with
Visual Studio using the generated projects in the projects dir.

This is a small fix to commit ebd213270a
in pull request #1221. That commit added the CURL_EMBED_MANIFEST flag to

overwriting

- Also removed some ^M chars from file.

the ENABLE_OPENSSL_AUTO_LOAD_CONFIG option with value as "no" it does
not set the CURL_DISABLE_OPENSSL_AUTO_LOAD_CONFIG flag.

Sometimes it may be considered a security risk to load an external
OpenSSL configuration automatically inside curl_global_init(). The
configuration option --disable-ssl-auto-load-config disables this
automatism. The Windows build scripts winbuild/Makefile.vs provide a
corresponding option ENABLE_SSL_AUTO_LOAD_CONFIG accepting a boolean
value.
Setting neither of these options corresponds to the previous behavior
loading the external OpenSSL configuration automatically.
