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_SEEKDATA - pointer passed to the seek callback

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SEEKDATA, void *pointer);

DESCRIPTION

Data pointer to pass to the seek callback function. If you use the CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION(3) option, this is the pointer you get as input.

DEFAULT

If you do not set this, NULL is passed to the callback.

EXAMPLE

#include <unistd.h> /* for lseek() */

struct data {
  int our_fd;
};

static int seek_cb(void *clientp, curl_off_t offset, int origin)
{
  struct data *d = (struct data *)clientp;
  lseek(d->our_fd, offset, origin);
  return CURL_SEEKFUNC_OK;
}

int main(void)
{
  struct data seek_data;
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION, seek_cb);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SEEKDATA, &seek_data);
  }
}

Added in 7.18.0
