The fix for #8276 proposed in #8374 set `CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -pthead"`
earlier than it used to be set, applying it in cases where it should not
have been applied.
This moves the AIX XLC check to a new `case $host in` block inside of
the `if test "$USE_THREADS_POSIX" != "1"` block, where `CFLAGS="$CFLAGS
-pthead"` used to happen.

Using the system pkg-config path in the face of a user-specified
library path is asking to link the wrong library.

In March 2010 (commit 4259d2df7d) we removed the embedded 'ares'
directory from the curl source tree but we have since supported
especially detecting and using that build directory. The time has come
to remove that kludge and ask users to specify the c-ares dir correctly
with --enable-ares.
Closes#8397
- Change library link check for ngtcp2_crypto_{gnutls,openssl} to
to use function ngtcp2_crypto_recv_client_initial_cb instead of
ngtcp2_crypto_ctx_initial.
The latter function is no longer external since two days ago in
ngtcp2/ngtcp2@533451f. curl HTTP/3 CI builds have been failing since
then because they would not link to the ngtcp2 crypto library.

Mesalink has ceased development. We can no longer encourage use of it.
It seems to be continued under the name TabbySSL, but no attempts have
(yet) been to make curl support it.

If hyper is indeed present in the specified directory but couldn't be

Previously specifying `--without-gnutls` would unexpectedly attempt to
compile with GnuTLS, effectively interpreting this as
`--with-gnutls`. This caused a significant amount of confusion when
`libcurl` was built with SSL disabled since GnuTLS wasn't present.
68d89f24 dropped the `--without-*` options from the configure help, but
`AC_ARG_WITH` still defines these flags automatically. As
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.60/html_node/External-Software.html
describes, the `action-if-given` is called when the user specifies
`--with-*` or `--without-*` options.
To prevent this confusion, we make the `--without` flag do the right
thing by ignoring the value if it set to "no".
Closes#7994
Some method names, as well as the generated library name, were changed
in a recent refactoring.
Further, change the default configuration instructions to check for
Hyper in either "target/debug" or "target/release" - the latter
contains an optimized build configuration.

The rationale is that custom *-config tools don't work well when
cross-compiling or using sysroots (such as when using Yocto project) and
require custom fixing for each of them; pkg-config on the other hand
works similarly everywhere.

ngtcp2_conn_client_new and nghttp3_conn_client_new are now macros.
Check the wrapped functions instead.
ngtcp2_stream_close callback now takes flags parameter.
Closes#7709
The AC_ARG_ENABLE() macro itself uses a variable called
'enable_[option]', so when our script also used a variable with that
name for the purpose of storing what the user wants, it also
accidentally made it impossible to switch off the feature with
--disable-hsts. Fix this by renaming our variable.

- If the user has not specified a minimum OS version (via WINVER or
_WIN32_WINNT macros) then set it to Windows XP.
Prior to this change classic MinGW defaulted the minimum OS version
to Windows NT 4.0 which is way too old. At least Windows XP is needed
for getaddrinfo (which resolves hostnames to IPv6 addresses).

Fixes#7514Closes#7515
commit 29c7cf79e8 (shipped in 7.78.0) introduced a problem by
assuming that LIB_H2 does not have any leading whitespace. At least
OpenBSD's native pkg-config can produce such whitespace, though:
$ pkg-config --libs-only-l libnghttp2
-lnghttp2
As a result, the configure check for libnghttp2 will erroneously fail.

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.

Latest version of quiche requires the application to pass the peer
address of received packets, and it provides the address for outgoing
packets back.
Closes#7120
configure no longer tries to find a TLS library by default, but all
libraries are now equal: the user needs to explicitly ask what TLS
library or libraries to use.
If no TLS library is selected, configure will error out unless
--without-ssl is explicitly used to request a built without TLS (as that
is very rare these days).
Removes: --with-winssl, --with-darwinssl and all --without-* options for
TLS libraries.
Closes#6897
