- Correct the use of -all-static for static Windows CI builds.
curl_LDFLAGS was removed from the makefile when metalink support was
removed. LDFLAGS=-all-static is passed to make only, because it is not a
valid option for configure compilation tests.

Adds Schannel variants of SSLpinning tests that include the option
--ssl-revoke-best-effort to ignore certificate revocation check
failures which is required due to our custom test CA certificate.
Disable the original variants if the Schannel backend is enabled.
Also skip all IDN tests which are broken while using an msys shell.
This is a step to simplify test exclusions for Windows and MinGW.

Let's try to actually handle the server unexpectedly alive
case by first making them visible on CI builds as failures.
This is needed to detect issues with killing of the test
servers completely including nested process chains with
multiple PIDs per test server (including bash and perl).
On Windows/cygwin platforms this is especially helpful with
debugging PID mixups due to cygwin using its own PID space.

As alluded to the in the now removed comment, a 13.0 image became
available and is now ready to be used.
The sanitizer builds were running on the 12.1 image which since has
been removed from the config, leaving the builds not running at all.
When enabled it turns out that they don't actually work due to very
long timeouts in executing the tests, so keep the disabled for now
but a bit more controlled.

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.

The tftpd server may still be busy if the total timeout of
25 seconds has not been reached or no sread error was received
during or after the execution of the timeout test 1238.
Once the next TFTP test comes around (eg. 1242 or 1243),
those will fail because the tftpd server is still waiting
on data from curl due to the UDP protocol being stateless
and having no connection close. On Linux this error may not
happen, because ICMP errors generated due to a swrite error
can also be returned async on the next sread call instead.
Therefore we will now just kill the tftpd server after test
1238 to make sure that the following tests are not affected.
This enables us to no longer ignore tests 1242, 1243, 2002
and 2003 on the CI platforms CirrusCI and AppVeyor.
