docs/libcurl: add TLS backend info for all TLS options
All man pages that are listed to be for TLS now must also specify
exactly what TLS backends the option works for, or use All if they all
work.

cd2nroff makes sure this is done and that the listed backends exist.

NAME

CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASSWORD - password to use for TLS authentication

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASSWORD, char *pwd);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a char pointer as parameter, which should point to the null-terminated password to use for the TLS authentication method specified with the CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_TYPE(3) option. Requires that the CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME(3) option also be set.

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

This feature relies in TLS SRP which does not work with TLS 1.3.

DEFAULT

NULL

PROTOCOLS

All TLS-based protocols

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_TLSAUTH_TYPE, "SRP");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_USERNAME, "user");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TLSAUTH_PASSWORD, "secret");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}

AVAILABILITY

Added in 7.21.4, with the OpenSSL and GnuTLS backends only

RETURN VALUE

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
