Since negative values are errors and not only -1. This makes SFTP upload
with --create-dirs work (again).

Closes #1269

- on the first invocation: keep security context returned by
  InitializeSecurityContext()

- on subsequent invocations: use MakeSignature() instead of
  InitializeSecurityContext() to generate HTTP digest response

- While negotiating auth during PUT/POST if a user-specified
  Content-Length header is set send 'Content-Length: 0'.

This is what we do already in HTTPREQ_POST_FORM and what we did in the
HTTPREQ_POST case (regression since afd288b2).

Prior to this change no Content-Length header would be sent in such a
case.

Closes #1265

It isn't easily solved, but with some thinking someone could probably
come up with a working approach?

Closes #1241

For example allow ranges like [1-1] and [a-a] etc.

Regression since 5ca96cb8.

Builds with axTLS 2.1.2. This then also breaks compatibility with axTLS
< 2.1.0 (the older API)

... and fix the session_id mixup brought in 04b4ee54

Fixes #1220

The warning message had a typo. The argument long form is --time-cond
not --timecond

Closes #1263

When the threaded resolver option is specified for configure the default
thread library is pthreads. This change makes it possible to
--disable-pthreads and then configure can fall back on Win32 threads for
native Windows builds.

Fixes #1229

When CURLE_SSL_CACERT occurs the tool shows a lengthy error message to
the user explaining possible solutions such as --cacert and --insecure.

This change appends to that message similar options --proxy-cacert and
--proxy-insecure when there's a specified HTTPS proxy.

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/1258

Fixes #1252

- Document in --socks* opts they're still mutually exclusive of --proxy.

Partial revert of 423a93ce; I had misinterpreted the SOCKS proxy +
HTTP/HTTPS proxy combination.

- Document in --socks* opts that --preproxy can be used to specify a
  SOCKS proxy at the same time --proxy is used with an HTTP/HTTPS proxy.

If the NSS code was in the middle of a non-blocking handshake and it
was asked to finish the handshake in blocking mode, it unexpectedly
continued in the non-blocking mode, which caused a FTPS connection
over CONNECT to fail with "(81) Socket not ready for send/recv".

When removing an easy handler from a multi before it completed its

Using sftp to delete a file with CURLOPT_NOBODY set with a reused
connection would fail as curl expected to get some data. Thus it would
retry the command again which fails as the file has already been
deleted.

The information extracted from the server certificates in step 3 is only
used when in verbose mode, and there is no error handling or validation
performed as that has already been done. Only run the certificate
information extraction when in verbose mode and libcurl was built with
verbose strings.

- Remove the SNI disabled when host verification disabled message
  since that is incorrect.

- Show a message for legacy versions of Windows <= XP that connections
