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_PROXYPORT - port number the proxy listens on

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXYPORT, long port);

DESCRIPTION

We discourage use of this option.

Pass a long with this option to set the proxy port to connect to unless it is specified in the proxy string CURLOPT_PROXY(3) or uses 443 for https proxies and 1080 for all others as default.

While this accepts a 'long', the port number is 16 bit so it cannot be larger than 65535.

DEFAULT

0, not specified which makes it use the default port

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/foo.bin");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "localhost");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXYPORT, 8080L);
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

RETURN VALUE

Returns CURLE_OK
