    Georg Lippitsch brought CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION and CURLOPT_SEEKDATA to allow · 18faa509
    Daniel Stenberg authored
    libcurl to seek in a given input stream. This is particularly important when
    doing upload resumes when there's already a huge part of the file present
    remotely. Before, and still if this callback isn't used, libcurl will read
    and through away the entire file up to the point to where the resuming
    begins (which of course can be a slow opereration depending on file size,
    I/O bandwidth and more). This new function will also be preferred to get
    used instead of the CURLOPT_IOCTLFUNCTION for seeking back in a stream when
    doing multi-stage HTTP auth with POST/PUT.
