closes #1747

to make sure they keep building warning-free

Closes #1777

Could've prevented #1755

Closes #1753

This makes the builds more reproducible as travis is currently rolling
out trusty as default dist [1]. Specifically, this avoids coverage
check failures when trusty is used as seen in [2] until we figure out
what's wrong.

(to make the full line appear nicer on travis web UI)

Closes #1706

Install libidn2 to increase test coverage (IDN tests)

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/1673

... to get warnings also on Linux/GCC and OSX/clang.

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/1666

Install libssh2 to increase test coverage (SFTP, SCP)

Closes #1653

I added a selection of torture and event tests that run "fast enough"

Closes #1642

... to better detect and fault on compiler warnings/errors

Closes #1637

- switch debug and release configurations so that we get an optimized
  build with GCC 4.3+ as required by typecheck-gcc
- enable warnings-as-errors for release builds
  (which have warnings disabled)

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/1595

typecheck-gcc and other things require optimized builds

Closes #1544

Closes #1534

Fixes #943

Apparently due to a broken homebrew install

Didn't work.

This reverts commit 50723585.

CI is failing due to missing libtoolize, so I'm trying this.

Closes #388

- Change the continuous integration script to use 'make test-full'
instead of just 'make test' so that the diagnostic log output is
printed to stdout when a test fails.

- Change the continuous integration script to use
'./configure --enable-debug' instead of just './configure' so that the
memory analyzer will work during testing.

Prior to this change Travis used its default C test script:
./configure && make && make test

From wikipedia:

Travis CI is a hosted, distributed continuous integration service used
to build and test projects hosted at GitHub.

Travis CI is configured by adding a file named .travis.yml, which is a
YAML format text file, to the root directory of the GitHub repository.

Travis CI automatically detects when a commit has been made and pushed
to a GitHub repository that is using Travis CI, and each time this
happens, it will try to build the project and run tests. This includes
commits to all branches, not just to the master branch. When that
process has completed, it will notify a developer in the way it has been
configured to do so — for example, by sending an email containing the
test results (showing success or failure), or by posting a message on an
IRC channel. It can be configured to run the tests on a range of
different machines, with different software installed (such as older
versions of a programming language, to test for compatibility).
