Ref cc1f4436

It adds the ability to link against static brotli libs.

Also fix brotli include path.

This uses the brotli external library (https://github.com/google/brotli).
Brotli becomes a feature: additional curl_version_info() bit and
structure fields are provided for it and CURLVERSION_NOW bumped.

Tests 314 and 315 check Brotli content unencoding with correct and
erroneous data.

Some tests are updated to accomodate with the now configuration dependent
parameters of the Accept-Encoding header.

This is implemented as an output streaming stack of unencoders, the last
calling the client write procedure.

New test 230 checks this feature.

Reported-By: Daniel Bankhead

Since CURLSSH_AUTH_ANY (aka CURLSSH_AUTH_DEFAULT) is ~0 an arg value
check on this option is incorrect; we have to accept any value.

Prior to this change since f121575c (7.56.1+) CURLOPT_SSH_AUTH_TYPES
erroneously rejected CURLSSH_AUTH_ANY with CURLE_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT.

It triggers an assert() when built with memdebug since malloc(0) may
return NULL *or* a valid pointer.

By properly keeping track of the last entry in the list of URLs/uploads
to handle, curl now avoids many meaningless traverses of the list which
speeds up many-URL handling *MASSIVELY* (several magnitudes on 100K
URLs).

Added test 1291, to verify that it doesn't take ages - but we don't have
any detection of "too slow" command in the test suite.

Fixes #2047

Prior to this change since f121575c (7.56.1+) CURLOPT_DNS_CACHE_TIMEOUT
erroneously rejected -1 with CURLE_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT.

This caused the torture tests on test 1800 to fail.

Test cleanup after OOM wasn't being consistently performed.

... which is valid according to documentation. Regression since
f121575c.

Verified now in test 501.

.. also add same arg value check to CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE_LARGE.

Prior to this change since f121575c (7.56.1+) CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE

The config files define curl and libcurl targets as imported targets
CURL::curl and CURL::libcurl. For backward compatibility with CMake-
provided find-module the CURL_INCLUDE_DIRS and CURL_LIBRARIES are
also set.

returning 'time_t' is problematic when that type is unsigned and we
return values less than zero to signal "already expired", used in
several places in the code.
