705f0f7a5b add library support for tuning TCP_KEEPALIVE
This adds three new options to control the behavior of TCP keepalives:

- CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPALIVE: enable/disable probes
- CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE: idle time before sending first probe
- CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL: delay between successive probes

While not all operating systems support the TCP_KEEPIDLE and
TCP_KEEPINTVL knobs, the library will still allow these options to be
set by clients, silently ignoring the values.

b2aaf3c2ad curl.1: improve --stderr wording
As is pointed out in this bug report, there can indeed be situation
where --stderr has a point even when the "real" stderr can be
redirected. Remove the superfluous and wrong comment.

The INTERNALS document suggested that compatibility should be
maintained with perl version 4, but this was untrue - scripts such as
chksource.pl and runtests.pl use perl5-isms.

c834213ad5 FTP: perform active connections non-blocking
1- Two new error codes are introduced.

CURLE_FTP_ACCEPT_FAILED to be set whenever ACCEPTing fails because of
FTP server connected.

CURLE_FTP_ACCEPT_TIMEOUT to be set whenever ACCEPTing timeouts.

Neither of these errors are considered fatal and control connection
remains OK because it could just be a firewall blocking server to
connect to the client.

2- One new setopt option was introduced.

CURLOPT_ACCEPTTIMEOUT_MS

It sets the maximum amount of time FTP client is going to wait for a
server to connect. Internal default accept timeout is 60 seconds.

6e4835c795 CURLOPT_INTERFACE: avoid resolving interfaces names
Do not try to resolve interfaces names via DNS by recognizing interface
names in a few ways.  If the interface option argument has a prefix of
"if!" then treat the argument as only an interface.  Similarly, if the
interface argument is the name of an interface (even if it does not have
an IP address assigned), treat it as an interface name.  Finally, if the
interface argument is prefixed by "host!" treat it as a hostname that
must be resolved by /etc/hosts or DNS.

These changes allow a client using the multi interfaces to avoid
blocking on name resolution if the interface loses its IP address or
disappears.

361cd03d58 CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT: default is 300 seconds
If the option is set to 0, the default timeout will be used - which in
modern libcurl versions equals 300 seconds (== 5 minutes).

7e4daaf908 progress function example: include timed interval
Adds a timer based off of CURLINFO_TOTAL_TIME that is used to perform
certain actions after a minimum amount of time has passed using the
progress function. As a consequence the curl handle is now also passed
into the progress function. Progress example now also includes an
example of how to retreive the TOTAL_TIME and print it out.

088ba97a24 FTP: call opensocket callback properly
When the new socket is created for an active connection, it is now done
using the open socket callback.

Test case 596 was modified to run fine, although it hides the fact that
the close callback is still called too many times, as it also gets
called for closing sockets that were created with accept().

4403e82f32 symbols.pl: provide LIBCURL_HAS macro for apps
Experience has shown that the symbols-in-versions file is very useful to
applications that want to build with a wide range of libcurl versions.
It is however easy to get it wrong and the source gets a bit messy with
all the fixed numerical comparisions.

The point of this script is to provide an easy-to-use macro for libcurl-
using applications to do preprocessor checks for specific libcurl
defines, and yet make the code clearly show what the macro is used for.
