As "(aq" and "(dq" to prevent them from implying a meaning in the nroff

Before this patch `-nghttp3`/`-ngtcp2` had an effect only when `-ssl`
was also enabled. `-ssl` meaning OpenSSL (and its forks). After
8a13be227e nghttp3/ngtcp2 can also be
used together with wolfSSL. This patch adds the ability to enable
`-nghttp3`/`-ngtcp2` independently from `-ssl` (OpenSSL), allowing to
use it with wolfSSL or other, future TLS backends.
Before this patch, it was fine to enable `-nghttp3`/`-ngtcp2`
unconditionally. After this patch, this is no longer the case, and now
it's the user's responsibility to enable `-nghttp3`/`-ngtcp2` only
together with a compatible TLS backend.
When using a TLS backend other than OpenSSL, the TLS-specific ngtcp2
library must be configured manually, e.g.:
`export CURL_LDFLAG_EXTRAS=-lngtcp2_crypto_wolfssl`
(or via `NGTCP2_LIBS`)
Closes#9314
- based on ngtcp2 PR https://github.com/ngtcp2/ngtcp2/pull/505
- configure adapted to build against ngtcp2 wolfssl crypto lib
- quic code added for creation of WOLFSSL* instances
Closes#9290
The example was missing a "--form" argument
I also replaced "--form" with "-F" to shorten the line a bit since it
was already very long.
And I also moved --form-escape from the "post" category to the "upload"
category (this is what I originally wanted to fix, before also noticing
the mistake in the example).
Closes#9298
This commit adds the dns category to the --resolve command line option,
because it can be interpreted as both: a low-level connection option and
an option related to the resolving of a hostname.
It is also not common for dns options to belong to the connection
category and vice versa. --ipv4 and --ipv6 are both good examples.
Closes#9229
- Support TLS 1.3 as the default max TLS version for Windows Server 2022
and Windows 11.
- Support specifying TLS 1.3 ciphers via existing option
CURLOPT_TLS13_CIPHERS (tool: --tls13-ciphers).
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/8419
On some systems, the gen.pl script takes nearly two minutes for the
generation of the main-page, which is a completely unacceptable time.
The slow performance has two causes:
1. Use of a regex locale operator
2. Useless invokations of loops
The commit addresses the first issue by replacing the "\W" wiht
[^a-zA-Z0-9_], which is, according to regex101.com, functionally
equivalent to the previous operation, except that it is obviously
limited to ASCII only, which is fine, as the curl project is
English-only anyway.
The second issue is being addressed by only running the loop if the line
contains a "--" in it. The loop may be completeley removed in the
future.

They allow to override the hardcoded values for the `windres` and `strip`
tools, complementing the existing set of `CURL_{CC,AR,RANLIB}` variables.
`CURL_RC` comes handy when using LLVM tools with `CROSSPREFIX=llvm-` and
`CURL_CC=clang` set on current latest debian:unstable or earlier, where
`llvm-windres` is missing, and a `CURL_RC=<triplet>-windres` fixes it.
Hopefully this will be fixed in the llvm package. FWIW `llvm-windres`
does exist in Homebrew llvm, MSYS2 llvm and llvm-mingw.

Makefile.m32's ngtcp2 has its two libs hardwired for OpenSSL.
Add `NGTCP2_LIBS` envvar to override them with a custom list,
making it possible to use BoringSSL, or any other backend.
Closes#9109
Starting now, CURLOPT_FTP_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT is the alias instead of the
other way around.
Since 7.20.0, CURLOPT_SERVER_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT has existed as an alias
but since the option is for more protocols than FTP the more "correct"
version of the option is the "server" one so now we switch.
Closes#9104
When building curl for target platform other than x64 and x86, it is now
possible to pass `ARCH=custom`, that will omit all hardcoded logic for
setting up CFLAGS/LDFLAGS/RCFLAGS for these platforms, and let these be
customized via `CURL_CFLAG_EXTRAS`, `CURL_LDFLAG_EXTRAS`, and a newly
added one for the resource compiler: `CURL_RCFLAG_EXTRAS`.
This makes it possible to use `makefile.m32` to build for ARM64 for
example.

- Use the Windows API to seed the fallback random generator.
This ensures to always have a random seed, even when libcurl is built
with a vtls backend lacking a random generator API, such as rustls
(experimental), GSKit and certain mbedTLS builds, or, when libcurl is
built without a TLS backend. We reuse the Windows-specific random
function from the Schannel backend.
- Implement support for `BCryptGenRandom()` [1] on Windows, as a
replacement for the deprecated `CryptGenRandom()` [2] function.
It is used as the secure random generator for Schannel, and also to
provide entropy for libcurl's fallback random generator. The new
function is supported on Vista and newer via its `bcrypt.dll`. It is
used automatically when building for supported versions. It also works
in UWP apps (the old function did not).
- Clear entropy buffer before calling the Windows random generator.
This avoids using arbitrary application memory as entropy (with
`CryptGenRandom()`) and makes sure to return in a predictable state
when an API call fails.

During the packaging of the latest curl release for Debian, Lintian

to not be rendered in the manpage due to "SH_" not being recognized as a

Closes#9057
Since this [1] commit in 2011, `_WIN32_WINNT` was set fixed to Windows
XP when the `-ipv6` option is selected. Maybe this was added to support
pre-XP Windows versions (?). These days libcurl builds fine for both XP
and post-XP versions with IPv6 support enabled. The relevance of pre-XP
version is also low by now. Other build methods also do not impose such
limitation for a similar configuration. So, drop this hard-wired
`_WIN32_WINNT` limit from `Makefile.m32`, thus building for the default
Windows version set by the compiler. This is Vista for recent MinGW
versions.
Old behaviour can be restored by setting this envvar:
export CURL_CFLAG_EXTRAS=-D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0501
