* HTTPS proxies:
An HTTPS proxy receives all transactions over an SSL/TLS connection.
Once a secure connection with the proxy is established, the user agent
uses the proxy as usual, including sending CONNECT requests to instruct
the proxy to establish a [usually secure] TCP tunnel with an origin
server. HTTPS proxies protect nearly all aspects of user-proxy
communications as opposed to HTTP proxies that receive all requests
(including CONNECT requests) in vulnerable clear text.
With HTTPS proxies, it is possible to have two concurrent _nested_
SSL/TLS sessions: the "outer" one between the user agent and the proxy
and the "inner" one between the user agent and the origin server
(through the proxy). This change adds supports for such nested sessions
as well.
A secure connection with a proxy requires its own set of the usual SSL
options (their actual descriptions differ and need polishing, see TODO):
--proxy-cacert FILE CA certificate to verify peer against
--proxy-capath DIR CA directory to verify peer against
--proxy-cert CERT[:PASSWD] Client certificate file and password
--proxy-cert-type TYPE Certificate file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-ciphers LIST SSL ciphers to use
--proxy-crlfile FILE Get a CRL list in PEM format from the file
--proxy-insecure Allow connections to proxies with bad certs
--proxy-key KEY Private key file name
--proxy-key-type TYPE Private key file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-pass PASS Pass phrase for the private key
--proxy-ssl-allow-beast Allow security flaw to improve interop
--proxy-sslv2 Use SSLv2
--proxy-sslv3 Use SSLv3
--proxy-tlsv1 Use TLSv1
--proxy-tlsuser USER TLS username
--proxy-tlspassword STRING TLS password
--proxy-tlsauthtype STRING TLS authentication type (default SRP)
All --proxy-foo options are independent from their --foo counterparts,
except --proxy-crlfile which defaults to --crlfile and --proxy-capath
which defaults to --capath.
Curl now also supports %{proxy_ssl_verify_result} --write-out variable,
similar to the existing %{ssl_verify_result} variable.
Supported backends: OpenSSL, GnuTLS, and NSS.
* A SOCKS proxy + HTTP/HTTPS proxy combination:
If both --socks* and --proxy options are given, Curl first connects to
the SOCKS proxy and then connects (through SOCKS) to the HTTP or HTTPS
proxy.
TODO: Update documentation for the new APIs and --proxy-* options.
Look for "Added in 7.XXX" marks.
Visual C++ now complains about implicitly casting time_t (64-bit) to
long (32-bit). Fix this by changing some variables from long to time_t,
or explicitly casting to long where the public interface would be
affected.
Closes#1131
Curl_select_ready() was the former API that was replaced with
Curl_select_check() a while back and the former arg setup was provided
with a define (in order to leave existing code unmodified).
Now we instead offer SOCKET_READABLE and SOCKET_WRITABLE for the most
common shortcuts where only one socket is checked. They're also more
visibly macros.
With HTTP/2 each transfer is made in an indivial logical stream over the
connection, making most previous errors that caused the connection to get
forced-closed now instead just kill the stream and not the connection.
Fixes#941
curl_printf.h defines printf to curl_mprintf, etc. This can cause
problems with external headers which may use
__attribute__((format(printf, ...))) markers etc.
To avoid that they cause problems with system includes, we include
curl_printf.h after any system headers. That makes the three last
headers to always be, and we keep them in this order:
curl_printf.h
curl_memory.h
memdebug.h
None of them include system headers, they all do funny #defines.

Fixes#743
** WORK-AROUND **
The introduced non-blocking general behaviour for Curl_proxyCONNECT()
didn't work for the data connection establishment unless it was very
fast. The newly introduced function argument makes it operate in a more
blocking manner, more like it used to work in the past. This blocking
approach is only used when the FTP data connecting through HTTP proxy.
Blocking like this is bad. A better fix would make it work more
asynchronously.

Since we just started make use of free(NULL) in order to simplify code,
this change takes it a step further and:
- converts lots of Curl_safefree() calls to good old free()
- makes Curl_safefree() not check the pointer before free()
The (new) rule of thumb is: if you really want a function call that
frees a pointer and then assigns it to NULL, then use Curl_safefree().
But we will prefer just using free() from now on.
The function "free" is documented in the way that no action shall occur for
a passed null pointer. It is therefore not needed that a function caller
repeats a corresponding check.

This issue was fixed by using the software Coccinelle 1.0.0-rc24.

The code used some happy eyeballs logic even _after_ CONNECT has been
sent to a proxy, while the happy eyeball phase is already (should be)
over by then.
This is solved by splitting the multi state into two separate states
introducing the new SENDPROTOCONNECT state.

... for the local variable name in functions holding the return
code. Using the same name universally makes code easier to read and
follow.
Also, unify code for checking for CURLcode errors with:
if(result) or if(!result)
instead of
if(result == CURLE_OK), if(CURLE_OK == result) or if(result != CURLE_OK)
This is usually due to failed auth. There's no point in us keeping such
a connection alive since it shouldn't be re-used anyway.

This reverts commit cb3e6dfa35 and instead fixes the problem
differently.
The reverted commit addressed a test failure in test 1021 by simplifying
and generalizing the code flow in a way that damaged the
performance. Now we modify the flow so that Curl_proxyCONNECT() again
does as much as possible in one go, yet still do test 1021 with and
without valgrind. It failed due to mistakes in the multi state machine.

Make all code use connclose() and connkeep() when changing the "close
state" for a connection. These two macros take a string argument with an
explanation, and debug builds of curl will include that in the debug
output. Helps tracking connection re-use/close issues.
Port number zero is perfectly allowed to connect to. I moved to storing
the remote port number in an int so that -1 means undefined and 0-65535
can be used for legitimate port numbers.
Following commit 0aafd77fa4, replaced the internal usage of
FORMAT_OFF_T and FORMAT_OFF_TU with the external versions that we
expect API programmers to use.
This negates the need for separate definitions which were subtly
different under different platforms/compilers.
Renamed copy_header_value() to Curl_copy_header_value() as this
function is now non static.
Simplified proxy flag in Curl_http_input_auth() when calling
sub-functions.
Removed unnecessary white space removal when using negotiate as it had
been missed in commit cdccb42267.
...following recent changes to Curl_base64_decode() rather than trying
to parse a header line for the authentication mechanisms which is CRLF
terminated and inline zero terminate it.
All protocol handler structs are now opaque (void *) in the
SessionHandle struct and moved in the request-specific sub-struct
'SingleRequest'. The intension is to keep the protocol specific
knowledge in their own dedicated source files [protocol].c etc.
There's some "leakage" where this policy is violated, to be addressed at
a later point in time.
Proxy servers tend to add their own headers at the beginning of
responses. The size of these headers was not taken into account by
CURLINFO_HEADER_SIZE before this change.

By doing this unconditionally, we infer a simpler and more defined
behavior. This also has the upside that test 1021 no longer fails for me
even if I run with valgrind.
Also fixed some wrong comments.
Remove internal separated behavior of the easy vs multi intercace.
curl_easy_perform() is now using the multi interface itself.
Several minor multi interface quirks and bugs have been fixed in the
process.

This commit renames lib/setup.h to lib/curl_setup.h and
renames lib/setup_once.h to lib/curl_setup_once.h.
Removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard foreign
to libcurl. [1]
Removes the need and presence of an alarming notice we carried
in old setup_once.h [2]
----------------------------------------
1 - lib/setup_once.h used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro as header inclusion guard
up to commit ec691ca3 which changed this to HEADER_CURL_SETUP_ONCE_H,
this single inclusion guard is enough to ensure that inclusion of
lib/setup_once.h done from lib/setup.h is only done once.
Additionally lib/setup.h has always used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro to
protect inclusion of setup_once.h even after commit ec691ca3, this
was to avoid a circular header inclusion triggered when building a
c-ares enabled version with c-ares sources available which also has
a setup_once.h header. Commit ec691ca3 exposes the real nature of
__SETUP_ONCE_H usage in lib/setup.h, it is a header inclusion guard
foreign to libcurl belonging to c-ares's setup_once.h
The renaming this commit does, fixes the circular header inclusion,
and as such removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard
foreign to libcurl. Macro __SETUP_ONCE_H no longer used in libcurl.
2 - Due to the circular interdependency of old lib/setup_once.h and the
c-ares setup_once.h header, old file lib/setup_once.h has carried
back from 2006 up to now days an alarming and prominent notice about
the need of keeping libcurl's and c-ares's setup_once.h in sync.
Given that this commit fixes the circular interdependency, the need
and presence of mentioned notice is removed.
All mentioned interdependencies come back from now old days when
the c-ares project lived inside a curl subdirectory. This commit
removes last traces of such fact.

If we use memory functions (malloc, free, strdup etc) in C sources in
libcurl and we fail to include curl_memory.h or memdebug.h we either
fail to properly support user-provided memory callbacks or the memory
leak system of the test suite fails.
After Ajit's report of a failure in the first category in http_proxy.c,
I spotted a few in the second category as well. These problems are now
tested for by test 1132 which runs a perl program that scans for and
attempts to check that we use the correct include files if a memory
related function is used in the source code.

When doing CONNECT requests, libcurl must make sure the connection is
alive as much as possible. NTLM requires it and it is generally good for
other cases as well.
NTLM over CONNECT requests has been broken since this regression I
introduced in my CONNECT cleanup commits that started with 41b0237834,
included since 7.25.0.
