Before this patch CMake builds used two separate compilation passes to
build the shared and static libcurl respectively. This patch allows to
reduce that to a single pass if the target platform and build settings
allow it.
This reduces CMake build times when building both static and shared
libcurl at the same time, making these dual builds an almost zero-cost
option.
Enable this feature for Windows builds, where the difference between the
two passes was the use of `__declspec(dllexport)` attribute for exported
API functions for the shared builds. This patch replaces this method
with the use of `libcurl.def` at DLL link time.
Also update `Makefile.mk` to use `libcurl.def` to export libcurl API
symbols on Windows. This simplifies (or fixes) this build method (e.g.
in curl-for-win, which generated a `libcurl.def` from `.h` files using
an elaborate set of transformations).
`libcurl.def` has the maintenance cost of keeping the list of public
libcurl API symbols up-to-date. This list seldom changes, so the cost
is low.

Extend existing picky compiler options with ones missing compared to
autotools builds. Also sync options between clang and gcc.
Redesign the way we enable these options to avoid the slow option
detection almost completely.
This reduces the number of detections from 35 to zero for clang and
3 for gcc, even after adding a bunch of new options.
clang 3.0 (2011-11-29) and gcc 2.95 (1999-07-31) now required.
Also show enabled picky options.

Add licensing and copyright information for all files in this repository. This
either happens in the file itself as a comment header or in the file
`.reuse/dep5`.
This commit also adds a Github workflow to check pull requests and adapts
copyright.pl to the changes.

Commit a04f0b9613 made me notice that
there is a portability issue in curl's top-level Makefile.am.
$< can only be used in rules that deal with .SUFFIXES. Its use
for general prerequisites is a GNU make extension.
$< could be replaced by $?, but I think in an autotools context,
something like this is better:

- 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).

Add three new CMake Find modules (using the curl license, but I grant
others the right to apply the CMake BSD license instead).
This CMake config is simpler than the autotools one because it assumes
ngtcp2 and nghttp3 to be used together. Another difference is that this
CMake config checks whether QUIC is actually supported by the TLS
library (patched OpenSSL or boringssl) since this can be a common
configuration mistake that could result in build errors later.
Unlike autotools, CMake does not warn you that the features are
experimental. The user is supposed to already know that and read the
documentation. It requires a very special build environment anyway.
Tested with ngtcp2+OpenSSL+nghttp3 and quiche+boringssl, both built from
current git master. Use `LD_DEBUG=files src/curl |& grep need` to figure
out which features (libldap-2.4, libssh2) to disable due to conflicts
with boringssl.

- Start with the basic code from the ossfuzz project.
- Rewrite fuzz corpora to be binary files full of Type-Length-Value
data, and write a glue layer in the fuzzing function to convert
corpora into CURL options.
- Have supporting functions to generate corpora from existing tests
- Integrate with Makefile.am
The maketgz script now makes sure the generated hugehelp.c file in the
tarball is newer than the generated curl.1 man page, so that it doesn't
have to get unnecessarily rebuilt first thing in a typical build. It
thus also removes the need for perl to build off a plain release
tarball.
