Daniel Stenberg 3b80d3ca46 getinfo: return sizes as curl_off_t
This change introduces new alternatives for the existing six
curl_easy_getinfo() options that return sizes or speeds as doubles. The
new versions are named like the old ones but with an appended '_T':

CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD_T
CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD_T
CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD_T
CURLINFO_SIZE_UPLOAD_T
CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD_T
CURLINFO_SPEED_UPLOAD_T
