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.

};

static int hostkeycb(void *clientp,   /* CURLOPT_SSH_HOSTKEYDATA */
                     int keytype,     /* CURLKHTYPE */
                     const char *key, /* host key to check */
                     size_t keylen)   /* length of the key */
{
  /* 'clientp' points to the callback_data struct */
  /* investigate the situation and return the correct value */
  return CURLKHMATCH_OK;
}

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    struct mine callback_data;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "sftp://example.com/thisfile.txt");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSH_HOSTKEYFUNCTION, hostkeycb);
