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

CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT - low speed limit in bytes per second

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT,
                          long speedlimit);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a long as parameter. It contains the average transfer speed in bytes per second that the transfer should be below during CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME(3) seconds for libcurl to consider it to be too slow and abort.

DEFAULT

0, disabled

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
    /* abort if slower than 30 bytes/sec during 60 seconds */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME, 60L);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT, 30L);
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    if(CURLE_OPERATION_TIMEDOUT == res) {
      printf("Timeout!\n");
    }
    /* always cleanup */
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

AVAILABILITY

Always

RETURN VALUE

Returns CURLE_OK
