libssh2_knownhost_readfile() returns a negative value on error or
otherwise number of parsed known hosts - this was previously not
documented correctly in the libssh2 man page for the function.

The stopserver function would append pids to kill and could append them
without separating them with space properly. The result would be a very
large number that by (some implementations of) kill would be interpreted
as a negative number and that process group would be wiped...

Removed the "netrc_debug" keyword replaced with --netrc-file additions.
Removed the debug code from Curl_parsenetrc as it is superseeded by
--netrc-file.
This enables people to specify a path to the netrc file to use.
The new option override --netrc if both are present. However it
does follow --netrc-optional if specified.
After a request times out, the connection wasn't properly closed and
prevented to get re-used, so subsequent transfers could still mistakenly
get to use the previously aborted connection.
When failing to connect the protocol during the CURLM_STATE_PROTOCONNECT
state, Curl_done() has to be called with the premature flag set TRUE as
for the pingpong protocols this can be important.
When Curl_done() is called with premature == TRUE, it needs to call
Curl_disconnect() with its 'dead_connection' argument set to TRUE as
well so that any protocol handler's disconnect function won't attempt to
use the (control) connection for anything.
This problem caused the pingpong protocols to fail to disconnect when
STARTTLS failed.

Introducing a few CURL_SOCKOPT* defines for conveniance. The new
CURL_SOCKOPT_ALREADY_CONNECTED signals to libcurl that the socket is to
be treated as already connected and thus it will skip the connect()
call.
It turns out some systems rely on the gmtime or gmtime_r to be defined
already in the system headers and thus my "precaution" redefining of
them only caused trouble. They are now removed.
Since the feature requires support for TCP_KEEPIDLE and TCP_KEEPINTVL to
function as documented, it now warns if that support is missing when the
option is used.
On second thought, I think CURLE_TLSAUTH_FAILED should be eliminated. It
was only being raised when an internal error occurred while allocating
or setting the GnuTLS SRP client credentials struct. For TLS
authentication failures, the general CURLE_SSL_CONNECT_ERROR seems
appropriate; its error string already includes "passwords" as a possible
cause. Having a separate TLS auth error code might also cause people to
think that a TLS auth failure means the wrong username or password was
entered, when it could also be a sign of a man-in-the-middle attack.
When the callback returns an error, this function must make sure to return
CURLE_ABORTED_BY_CALLBACK properly and not CURLE_OK as before to allow the
callback to properly abort the operation.
The main has not been updated from some time and is out of sync with
the code. The code is now tested by several test cases so no need for
a seperate code path.
