Referring to Daniel's article [1], making the init function thread-safe
was the last bit to make libcurl thread-safe as a whole. So the name of
the feature may as well be the more concise 'threadsafe', also telling
the story that libcurl is now fully thread-safe, not just its init
function. Chances are high that libcurl wants to remain so in the
future, so there is little likelihood of ever needing any other distinct
`threadsafe-<name>` feature flags.
For consistency we also shorten `CURL_VERSION_THREADSAFE_INIT` to
`CURL_VERSION_THREADSAFE`, update its description and reference libcurl's
thread safety documentation.

Previously specifying `--without-gnutls` would unexpectedly attempt to
compile with GnuTLS, effectively interpreting this as
`--with-gnutls`. This caused a significant amount of confusion when
`libcurl` was built with SSL disabled since GnuTLS wasn't present.
68d89f24 dropped the `--without-*` options from the configure help, but
`AC_ARG_WITH` still defines these flags automatically. As
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.60/html_node/External-Software.html
describes, the `action-if-given` is called when the user specifies
`--with-*` or `--without-*` options.
To prevent this confusion, we make the `--without` flag do the right
thing by ignoring the value if it set to "no".

Warning: this will make existing curl command lines that use metalink to
stop working.
Reasons for removal:
1. We've found several security problems and issues involving the
metalink support in curl. The issues are not detailed here. When
working on those, it become apparent to the team that several of the
problems are due to the system design, metalink library API and what
the metalink RFC says. They are very hard to fix on the curl side
only.
2. The metalink usage with curl was only very briefly documented and was
not following the "normal" curl usage pattern in several ways, making
it surprising and non-intuitive which could lead to further security
issues.
3. The metalink library was last updated 6 years ago and wasn't so
active the years before that either. An unmaintained library means
there's a security problem waiting to happen. This is probably reason
enough.
4. Metalink requires an XML parsing library, which is complex code (even
the smaller alternatives) and to this day often gets security
updates.
5. Metalink is not a widely used curl feature. In the 2020 curl user
survey, only 1.4% of the responders said that they'd are using it. In
2021 that number was 1.2%. Searching the web also show very few
traces of it being used, even with other tools.
6. The torrent format and associated technology clearly won for
downloading large files from multiple sources in parallel.

configure no longer tries to find a TLS library by default, but all
libraries are now equal: the user needs to explicitly ask what TLS
library or libraries to use.
If no TLS library is selected, configure will error out unless
--without-ssl is explicitly used to request a built without TLS (as that
is very rare these days).
Removes: --with-winssl, --with-darwinssl and all --without-* options for
TLS libraries.
Closes#6897
In 2682e5f5, several instances of AC_HEADER_TIME were removed since
it is a deprecated autoconf macro. However, this was the macro that
defined TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME, which was used to indicate that <time.h>
can be included alongside <sys/time.h>. TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME is still
used in the configure test body and since it is no longer defined,
<time.h> is *not* included on systems that have <sys/time.h>.
In particular, at least on musl libc and glibc, <sys/time.h> does
not implicitly include <time.h> and does not declare clock_gettime,
gmtime_r, or localtime_r. This causes configure to fail to detect
those functions.
The AC_HEADER_TIME macro deprecation text says
> All current systems provide time.h; it need not be checked for.
> Not all systems provide sys/time.h, but those that do, all allow
> you to include it and time.h simultaneously.
So, to fix this issue, simply include <time.h> unconditionally when
testing for time-related functions and in libcurl, and don't bother
checking for it.

This commit introduces a "gophers" handler inside the gopher protocol if
USE_SSL is defined. This protocol is no different than the usual gopher
prococol, with the added TLS encapsulation upon connecting. The protocol
has been adopted in the gopher community, and many people have enabled
TLS in their gopher daemons like geomyidae(8), and clients, like clic(1)
and hurl(1).
I have not implemented test units for this protocol because my knowledge
of Perl is sub-par. However, for someone more knowledgeable it might be
fairly trivial, because the same test that tests the plain gopher
protocol can be used for "gophers" just by adding a TLS listener.

A shared boringssl/OpenSSL library requires -lcrypto only for linking.
A static build additionally requires `-ldl -lpthread`. In the latter
case `-lpthread` is added to LIBS which prevented `-pthread` from being
added to CFLAGS. Clear LIBS to fix linking failures for libtest tests.
A project being built entirely statically will call pkg-config with
--static, which utilises the Libs.private field. Conversely it will
not use --static when not being built entirely statically, even if
there is only a static build of libcurl available. This will most
likely cause the build to fail due to underlinking unless we merge the
Libs fields.
Consider that this is what the Meson build system does when it
generates pkg-config files.
I have also reflected this in the --libs argument of curl-config even
though REQUIRE_LIB_DEPS always seems to be "yes" anyway.

quiche has the potential to log qlog files. To enable this, you must
build quiche with the qlog feature enabled `cargo build --features
qlog`. curl then passes a file descriptor to quiche, which takes
ownership of the file. The FD transfer only works on UNIX.
The convention is to enable logging when the QLOGDIR environment is
set. This should be a path to a folder where files are written with the
naming template <SCID>.qlog.
