Triggered before a request is made but after a connection is set up
Changes:
- callback: Update docs and callback for pre-request callback
- Add documentation for CURLOPT_PREREQDATA and CURLOPT_PREREQFUNCTION,
- Add redirect test and callback failure test
- Note that the function may be called multiple times on a redirection
- Disable new 2086 test due to Windows weirdness
Closes#7477
Add curl_url_strerror() to convert CURLUcode into readable string and
facilitate easier troubleshooting in programs using URL API.
Extend CURLUcode with CURLU_LAST for iteration in unit tests.
Update man pages with a mention of new function.
Update example code and tests with new functionality where it fits.

- avoid writing "set ..." or "enable/disable ..." or "specify ..."
*All* options for curl_easy_setopt() are about setting or enabling
things and most of the existing options didn't use that way of
description.
- start with lowercase letter, unless abbreviation. For consistency.
- Some additional touch-ups
Closes#7688
In every libcurl option man page there are now 8 mandatory sections that
must use the right name in the correct order and test 1173 verifies
this. Only 14 man pages needed adjustments.
The sections and the order is as follows:
- NAME
- SYNOPSIS
- DESCRIPTION
- PROTOCOLS
- EXAMPLE
- AVAILABILITY
- RETURN VALUE
- SEE ALSO

Closes#7656
Extended manpage-syntax.pl (run by test 1173) to check that every man
page for a libcurl option has an EXAMPLE section that is more than two
lines. Then fixed all errors it found and added examples.

Since this option is also used for FTP, it needs to work to set for
applications even if hyper doesn't support it for HTTP. Verified by test
1137.
Updated docs to specify that the option doesn't work for HTTP when using
the hyper backend.

- Add protocols field to max-filesize.d.
- Revert wording on unknown file size caveat and do not discuss specific
protocols in that section.
Partial revert of ecf0225. All max-filesize options now have the list of
protocols and it's clearer just to have that list without discussing
specific protocols in the caveat.

Also make it clearer that the caveat 'if the file size is unknown it
the option will have no effect' may apply to protocols other than FTP
and HTTP.

Unicode Windows builds use UTF-8 strings internally in libcurl,
so make sure to call the UTF-8 flavour of the libidn2 API. Also
document that Windows builds with libidn2 and UNICODE do expect
CURLOPT_URL as an UTF-8 string.

In some situations, it was possible that a transfer was setup to
use an specific IP version, but due do DNS caching or connection
reuse, it ended up using a different IP version from requested.
This commit changes the effect of CURLOPT_IPRESOLVE from simply
restricting address resolution to preventing the wrong connection
type being used, when choosing a connection from the pool, and
to restricting what addresses could be used when establishing
a new connection.
It is important that all addresses versions are resolved, even if
not used in that transfer in particular, because the result is
cached, and could be useful for a different transfer with a
different CURLOPT_IPRESOLVE setting.

Previously this logic would cap the send to CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE bytes,
but for the situations where a larger upload buffer has been set, this
function can benefit from sending more bytes. With default size used,
this does the same as before.
Also changed the storage of the size to an 'unsigned int' as it is not
allowed to be set larger than 2M.
Also added cautions to the man pages about changing buffer sizes in
run-time.

- Disable auto credentials by default. This is a breaking change
for clients that are using it, wittingly or not.
- New libcurl ssl option value CURLSSLOPT_AUTO_CLIENT_CERT tells libcurl
to automatically locate and use a client certificate for
authentication, when requested by the server.
- New curl tool options --ssl-auto-client-cert and
--proxy-ssl-auto-client-cert map to CURLSSLOPT_AUTO_CLIENT_CERT.
This option is only supported for Schannel (the native Windows SSL
library). Prior to this change Schannel would, with no notification to
the client, attempt to locate a client certificate and send it to the
server, when requested by the server. Since the server can request any
certificate that supports client authentication in the OS certificate
store it could be a privacy violation and unexpected.

- New libcurl options CURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYHOST,
CURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYPEER and CURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS do the
same as their respective counterparts.
- New curl tool options --doh-insecure and --doh-cert-status do the same
as their respective counterparts.
Prior to this change DOH SSL certificate verification settings for
verifyhost and verifypeer were supposed to be inherited respectively
from CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST and CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, but due to a bug
were not. As a result DOH verification remained at the default, ie
enabled, and it was not possible to disable. This commit changes
behavior so that the DOH verification settings are independent and not
inherited.
