docs/libcurl: generate PROTOCOLS from meta-data

Remove the PROTOCOLS section from the source files completely and
instead generate them based on the header data in the curldown files.

It also generates TLS backend information for options marked for TLS as
protocol.

Closes #13175

NAME

CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE - global DNS cache

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE,
                          long enable);

DESCRIPTION

Has no function since 7.62.0. Do not use!

Pass a long. If the enable value is 1, it tells curl to use a global DNS cache that survives between easy handle creations and deletions. This is not thread-safe and this uses a global variable.

See CURLOPT_SHARE(3) and curl_share_init(3) for the correct way to share DNS cache between transfers.

DEFAULT

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode ret;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
    /* switch off the use of a global, thread unsafe, cache */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE, 0L);
    ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

AVAILABILITY

Deprecated since 7.11.1. Function removed in 7.62.0.

RETURN VALUE

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
