Closes#10205
`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.

The biggest precaution this change brings:

- Rename VC15 -> VC14.10, VC17 -> VC14.30.
The projects directory that holds the pre-generated Visual Studio
project files uses VC<ver> to indicate the MSVC version. At some point
support for Visual Studio 2017 (Visual Studio version 15 which uses MSVC
14.10) was added as VC15. Visual Studio 2022 (Visual Studio version 17
which uses MSVC 14.30) project files were recently added and followed
that same format using VC17.
There is no such MSVC version (yet) as VC15 or VC17.
For VS 2017 for example, the name we use is correct as either VS17,
VS2017, VC14.10. I opted for the latter since we use VC for earlier
versions (eg VC10, VC12, etc).

- Change build-wolfssl.bat to disable SSLv3, enable TLSv1.3, enable
wolfSSL_DES_ecb_encrypt (needed by NTLM) and enable alt cert chains.
- Disable warning C4214 'bit field types other than int'.
- Add include directory wolfssl\wolfssl.
wolfSSL offers OpenSSL API compatibility that libcurl uses, and some
recent change in libcurl included an include file for wolfSSL like
openssl/foo.h, which has a path like wolfssl\wolfssl\openssl\foo.h.
The include directory issue was reported in #8292 but it's currently
unclear whether this type of change is needed for other build systems.

- Update VS project templates to use the OpenSSL lib names and include
directories for OpenSSL 1.1.x.
This change means the VS project files will now build only with OpenSSL
1.1.x when an OpenSSL configuration is chosen. Prior to this change the
project files built only with OpenSSL 1.0.x (end-of-life) when an
OpenSSL configuration was chosen.
The template changes in this commit were made by script:
libeay32.lib => libcrypto.lib
ssleay32.lib => libssl.lib
..\..\..\..\..\openssl\inc32 => ..\..\..\..\..\openssl\include
And since the output directory now contains the includes it's prepended:
..\..\..\..\..\openssl\build\Win{32,64}\VC{6..15}\{DLL,LIB}
{Debug,Release}\include
- Change build-openssl.bat to copy the build's include directory to the
output directory (as seen above).
Each build has its own opensslconf.h which is different so we can't just
include the source include directory any longer.
Note the include directory in the output directory is a full copy from
the build so technically we don't need to include the OpenSSL source
include directory in the template. However, I left it last in case the
user made a custom OpenSSL build using the old method which would put
opensslconf in the OpenSSL source include directory.
- Change build-openssl.bat to use a temporary install directory that is
different from the temporary build directory.
For OpenSSL 1.1.x the temporary paths must be separate not a descendant
of the other, otherwise pdb files will be lost between builds.

If the script was ran from the main curl directory rather then the

oneline hacky workaround:
C:\url> cd projects
C:\url\projects> checksrc.bat

- Remove old compatibility macros.
Follow-up to 1c6c59a from several months ago when CyaSSL named symbols
were renamed to wolfSSL. The wolfSSL library was formerly named CyaSSL
and we kept using their old name for compatibility reasons, until
earlier this year.
All Windows APIs have been natively UTF-16 since Windows 2000 and the
non-Unicode variants are just wrappers around them. Only Windows 9x
doesn't understand Unicode without the UnicoWS DLL. As later Visual
Studio versions cannot target Windows 9x anyway, using the ANSI API
doesn't really have any benefit there.
This avoids issues like KNOWN_BUGS 6.5.
