docs: introduce "curldown" for libcurl man page format
curldown is this new file format for libcurl man pages. It is markdown
inspired with differences:

- Each file has a set of leading headers with meta-data
- Supports a small subset of markdown
- Uses .md file extensions for editors/IDE/GitHub to treat them nicely
- Generates man pages very similar to the previous ones
- Generates man pages that still convert nicely to HTML on the website
- Detects and highlights mentions of curl symbols automatically (when
  their man page section is specified)

tools:

- cd2nroff: converts from curldown to nroff man page
- nroff2cd: convert an (old) nroff man page to curldown
- cdall: convert many nroff pages to curldown versions
- cd2cd: verifies and updates a curldown to latest curldown

This setup generates .3 versions of all the curldown versions at build time.

CI:

Since the documentation is now technically markdown in the eyes of many
things, the CI runs many more tests and checks on this documentation,
including proselint, link checkers and tests that make sure we capitalize the
first letter after a period...

NAME

CURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS - verify the DoH SSL certificate's status

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS,
                          long verify);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a long as parameter set to 1 to enable or 0 to disable.

This option determines whether libcurl verifies the status of the DoH (DNS-over-HTTPS) server cert using the "Certificate Status Request" TLS extension (aka. OCSP stapling).

This option is the DoH equivalent of CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS(3) and only affects requests to the DoH server.

If this option is enabled and the server does not support the TLS extension, the verification fails.

DEFAULT

0

PROTOCOLS

DoH

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");

    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_DOH_URL,
                     "https://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query");

    /* Ask for OCSP stapling when verifying the DoH server */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYSTATUS, 1L);

    curl_easy_perform(curl);
  }
}

AVAILABILITY

Added in 7.76.0. This option is currently only supported by the OpenSSL, and GnuTLS TLS backends.

RETURN VALUE

Returns CURLE_OK if OCSP stapling is supported by the SSL backend, otherwise returns CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN.
