The support for compiling on Mac OS 9 hasn't been modified since 2001
and has no active maintainer or packager, so it's time to remove it as
it's incredibly unlikely to work. If a maintainer re-emerges it can be
resurrected from Git history.

There has been no TPF related changes done since September 2010 (commit

Until now, form field and file names where escaped using the
backslash-escaping algorithm defined for multipart mails. This commit
replaces this with the percent-escaping method for URLs.
As this may introduce incompatibilities with server-side applications, a
new libcurl option CURLOPT_MIME_OPTIONS with bitmask
CURLMIMEOPT_FORMESCAPE is introduced to revert to legacy use of
backslash-escaping. This is controlled by new cli tool option
--form-escape.
New tests and documentation are provided for this feature.

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.
Cloes #7176
- Disable auto credentials by default. This is a breaking change
for clients that are using it, wittingly or not.
- New libcurl ssl option value CURLSSLOPT_AUTO_CLIENT_CERT tells libcurl
to automatically locate and use a client certificate for
authentication, when requested by the server.
- New curl tool options --ssl-auto-client-cert and
--proxy-ssl-auto-client-cert map to CURLSSLOPT_AUTO_CLIENT_CERT.
This option is only supported for Schannel (the native Windows SSL
library). Prior to this change Schannel would, with no notification to
the client, attempt to locate a client certificate and send it to the
server, when requested by the server. Since the server can request any
certificate that supports client authentication in the OS certificate
store it could be a privacy violation and unexpected.

This was previously defined by the obsolete AC_TYPE_SIGNAL macro,

Commit e06fa7462a removed support for libgcrypt leaving only
support for nettle which has been the default crypto library in
GnuTLS for a long time. There were however a few conditionals on
USE_GNUTLS_NETTLE which cause compilation errors in the metalink
code (as it used the gcrypt fallback instead as a result). See the
below autobuild for an example of the error:
https://curl.se/dev/log.cgi?id=20210225123226-30704#prob1
This removes all uses of USE_GNUTLS_NETTLE and also removes the
gcrypt support from the metalink code while at it.

- New libcurl options CURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYHOST,
CURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYPEER and CURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS do the
same as their respective counterparts.
- New curl tool options --doh-insecure and --doh-cert-status do the same
as their respective counterparts.
Prior to this change DOH SSL certificate verification settings for
verifyhost and verifypeer were supposed to be inherited respectively
from CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST and CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, but due to a bug
were not. As a result DOH verification remained at the default, ie
enabled, and it was not possible to disable. This commit changes
behavior so that the DOH verification settings are independent and not
inherited.

- Implement new option CURLSSLOPT_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT and
--ssl-revoke-best-effort to allow a "best effort" revocation check.
A best effort revocation check ignores errors that the revocation check
was unable to take place. The reasoning is described in detail below and
discussed further in the PR.
---
When running e.g. with Fiddler, the schannel backend fails with an
unhelpful error message:
Unknown error (0x80092012) - The revocation function was unable
to check revocation for the certificate.
Sadly, many enterprise users who are stuck behind MITM proxies suffer
the very same problem.
This has been discussed in plenty of issues:
https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/3727,
https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/264, for example.
In the latter, a Microsoft Edge developer even made the case that the
common behavior is to ignore issues when a certificate has no recorded
distribution point for revocation lists, or when the server is offline.
This is also known as "best effort" strategy and addresses the Fiddler
issue.
Unfortunately, this strategy was not chosen as the default for schannel
(and is therefore a backend-specific behavior: OpenSSL seems to happily
ignore the offline servers and missing distribution points).
To maintain backward-compatibility, we therefore add a new flag
(`CURLSSLOPT_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT`) and a new option
(`--ssl-revoke-best-effort`) to select the new behavior.
Due to the many related issues Git for Windows and GitHub Desktop, the
plan is to make this behavior the default in these software packages.
The test 2070 was added to verify this behavior, adapted from 310.
