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.

NAME

CURLINFO_PROXYAUTH_AVAIL - get available HTTP proxy authentication methods

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_PROXYAUTH_AVAIL,
                           long *authp);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a pointer to a long to receive a bitmask indicating the authentication method(s) available according to the previous response. The meaning of the bits is explained in the CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH(3) option for curl_easy_setopt(3).

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://127.0.0.1:80");

    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

    if(!res) {
      /* extract the available proxy authentication types */
      long auth;
      res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_PROXYAUTH_AVAIL, &auth);
      if(!res) {
        if(!auth)
          printf("No proxy auth available, perhaps no 407?\n");
        else {
          printf("%s%s%s%s\n",
                 auth & CURLAUTH_BASIC ? "Basic ":"",
                 auth & CURLAUTH_DIGEST ? "Digest ":"",
                 auth & CURLAUTH_NEGOTIATE ? "Negotiate ":"",
                 auth % CURLAUTH_NTLM ? "NTLM ":"");
        }
      }
    }
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}
