Added pop3 username and password example as well as an explanation of

Additionally have corrected a couple of typos.

Move curl_easy_perform source code geneartion out of curl_easy_perform's loop
for proper OOM handling and source code geneartion.

After a PORT has been issued, and the multi handle would switch to the
CURLM_STATE_DO_MORE state (which is unique for FTP), libcurl would
return the wrong fdset to wait for when curl_multi_fdset() is
called. The code would blindly assume that it was waiting for a connect
of the second connection, while that isn't true immediately after the
PORT command.

Also, the function multi.c:domore_getsock() was highly FTP-centric and
therefore ugly to keep in protocol-agnostic code. I solved this problem
by introducing a new function pointer in the Curl_handler struct called
domore_getsock() which is only called during the DOMORE state for
protocols that set that pointer.

The new ftp.c:ftp_domore_getsock() function now returns fdset info about
the control connection's command/response handling while such a state is
in use, and goes over to waiting for a writable second connection first
once the commands are done.

The original problem could be seen by running test 525 and checking the
time stamps in the FTP server log. I can verify that this fix at least
fixes this problem.

Fixed in commit 7d81e3f7193b8c

The fix is pretty much the one Nick Zitzmann provided, just edited to do
the right indent levels and with test case 1204 added to verify the fix.

Fix a bug with with commit 2621dd42 that happened due to my last
second pre-commit cleanup of the change without proper testing
afterwards!

This return code has not been used since 7.20.0 so we can stop
mentioning it for current libcurl.

The default lowat level for gnutls-2.12* is set to zero to avoid
unnecessary system calls and the gnutls_transport_set_lowat function has
been totally removed in >=gnutls-3 which causes build failures.

Therefore, the function shouldn't be used except for versions that
require it, <gnutls-2.12.0.

As the EOB string can come byte by byte over a series of writes we must
match byte-wise.

Previously the bit was set before the connection was found working so if
it would first fail to an ipv6 address and then connect fine to a IPv4
address the variable would still be TRUE.

Previously we required that -S/--show-error was used _after_
-s/--silent. This was slightly confusing since we strive to make
arguments as position independent as possible.

Now, you can use them in any order and the result should still be the
same.

Elaborate what max_fd == -1 means

Remove the reference to CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM as modern libcurl
versions don't ever return that.

When doing a multipart formpost with a read callback, and that callback
returns CURL_READFUNC_ABORT, that return code must be properly
propagated back and handled accordingly. Previously it would be handled
as a zero byte read which would cause a hang!

Added test case 587 to verify. It uses the lib554.c source code with a
small ifdef.

There might be situations where a user would want to unset this option.
Avoid forcing him/her to cast the NULL argument to (char *) in order to
get past the compile time typecheck.

Save the errno value immediately after a connect() failure so that it
won't get reset to something else before we read it.

Jerry Wu detected and provided detailed info about this issue.

When, for a given test, server is instructed to close connection after
server reply we now wait a very small amount of time (50ms) before doing
so. This is done to allow client to, at least partially, read server
reply before getting an ECONNRESET.

The above is required to make test cases 1070, 1200, 1201 and 1202 pass
with Cygwin 1.5.X on W2K.

GOPHER test server closes connection after _every_ server-reply, as such,
at some point it could require a bigger time or using shutdown() before
a server-side initiated disconnection.

Set ACK timeout to 5 seconds.

If we are waiting for block X and receive block Y that is the expected one, we
should send ACK and increase X (which is already implemented). Otherwise drop
the packet and don't increase retry counter.

Prevent modification of easy handle being added with curl_multi_add_handle()
