- make DEFAULT sections less repetitive

- make historic mentions use HISTORY

- generate the protocols section on `# %PROTOCOLS%` instead of guessing
  where to put it

- generate the availability section on `# %AVAILABILITY%` instead of
  guessing where to put it

- make the protocols section more verbose

Closes #14227

NAME

CURLOPT_REQUEST_TARGET - alternative target for this request

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_REQUEST_TARGET, string);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a char pointer to string which libcurl uses in the upcoming request instead of the path as extracted from the URL.

libcurl passes on the verbatim string in its request without any filter or other safe guards. That includes white space and control characters.

DEFAULT

NULL

%PROTOCOLS%

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/*");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "OPTIONS");

    /* issue an OPTIONS * request (no leading slash) */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_REQUEST_TARGET, "*");

    /* Perform the request */
    curl_easy_perform(curl);
  }
}

%AVAILABILITY%

RETURN VALUE

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