Replace Curl_resolv_unlock() with Curl_resolv_unlink():
-replace inuse member with refcount in Curl_dns_entry
- pass Curl_dns_entry ** to unlink, so it gets always cleared
- solve potential (but unlikley) UAF in FTP's handling of looked up
Curl_dns_entry. Esp. do not use addr information after unlinking an entry.
In reality, the unlink will not free memory, as the dns entry is still
referenced by the hostcache. But this is not safe and relying on no other
code pruning the cache in the meantime.
- pass permanent flag when adding a dns entry instead of fixing timestamp
afterwards.

Before this patch, two macros were used to guard IPv6 features in curl
sources: `ENABLE_IPV6` and `USE_IPV6`. This patch makes the source use
the latter for consistency with other similar switches.
`-DENABLE_IPV6` remains accepted for compatibility as a synonym for
`-DUSE_IPV6`, when passed to the compiler.
`ENABLE_IPV6` also remains the name of the CMake and `Makefile.vc`
options to control this feature.

- Do not assume IPv6 is not working when getaddrinfo is not present.
The check to see if IPv6 actually works is now independent of whether
there is any resolver that can potentially resolve a hostname to IPv6.
Prior to this change if getaddrinfo() was not found at compile time then
Curl_ipv6works() would be defined as a macro that returns FALSE.
When getaddrinfo is not found then libcurl is built with CURLRES_IPV4
defined instead of CURLRES_IPV6, meaning that it cannot do IPv6 lookups
in the traditional way. With this commit if libcurl is built with IPv6
support (ENABLE_IPV6) but without getaddrinfo (CURLRES_IPV6), and the
IPv6 stack is actually working, then it is possible for libcurl to
resolve IPv6 addresses by using DoH.

Makes test 1188 work for c-ares builds
Closes#6626
... in most cases instead of 'struct connectdata *' but in some cases in
addition to.
- We mostly operate on transfers and not connections.
- We need the transfer handle to log, store data and more. Everything in
libcurl is driven by a transfer (the CURL * in the public API).
- This work clarifies and separates the transfers from the connections
better.
- We should avoid "conn->data". Since individual connections can be used
by many transfers when multiplexing, making sure that conn->data
points to the current and correct transfer at all times is difficult
and has been notoriously error-prone over the years. The goal is to
ultimately remove the conn->data pointer for this reason.

Previously it was stored in a global state which contributed to

There were a leftover few prototypes of Curl_ functions that we used to

Curl_concat_url(), Curl_detach_connnection(), Curl_http_setup_conn()

Curl_http_perhapsrewind() made static in 574aecee20.
For the remainder, I didn't trawl the Git logs hard enough to capture
their exact time of deletion, but they were all gone: Curl_splayprint(),

This patch adds CURLOPT_DNS_SHUFFLE_ADDRESSES to explicitly request
shuffling of IP addresses returned for a hostname when there is more
than one. This is useful when the application knows that a round robin
approach is appropriate and is willing to accept the consequences of
potentially discarding some preference order returned by the system's
implementation.

This avoids unnecessary dynamic allocs and as this also removed the last
users of *hash_alloc() and *hash_destroy(), those two functions are now
removed.
- cache entries must be also refreshed when they are in use
- have the cache count as inuse reference too, freeing timestamp == 0 special
value
- use timestamp == 0 for CURLOPT_RESOLVE entries which don't get refreshed
- remove CURLOPT_RESOLVE special inuse reference (timestamp == 0 will prevent refresh)
- fix Curl_hostcache_clean - CURLOPT_RESOLVE entries don't have a special
reference anymore, and it would also release non CURLOPT_RESOLVE references
- fix locking in Curl_hostcache_clean
- fix unit1305.c: hash now keeps a reference, need to set inuse = 1
For consistency, as we seem to have a bit of a mixed bag, changed all
instances of ipv4 and ipv6 in comments and documentations to use the
correct case.
While waiting for a host resolve, check if the host cache may have
gotten the name already (by someone else), for when the same name is
resolved by several simultanoues requests.
The resolver thread occasionally gets stuck in getaddrinfo() when the
DNS or anything else is crappy or slow, so when a host is found in the
DNS cache, leave the thread alone and let itself cleanup the mess.
