That patch set also introduces support for ECDSA
ed25519 keys, as well as gssapi authentication.

Absent any 'symbol map' or script to limit what gets exported, static
linking of libraries previously resulted in a libcurl with curl's and
those other symbols being (re-)exported.

This did not happen if 'versioned symbols' were enabled (which is not
the default) because then a version script is employed.

This limits exports to everything starting in 'curl_*'., which is
what "libcurl.vers" exports.

This avoids strange side-effects such as with mixing methods
from system libraries and those erroneously offered by libcurl.

Closes #2127

Originally, my idea was to allocate the two structures (or more
precisely, the connectdata structure and the four SSL backend-specific
strucutres required for ssl[0..1] and proxy_ssl[0..1]) in one go, so
that they all could be free()d together.

However, getting the alignment right is tricky. Too tricky.

So let's just bite the bullet and allocate the SSL backend-specific
data separately.

As a consequence, we now have to be very careful to release the memory
allocated for the SSL backend-specific data whenever we release any
connectdata.

Closes #2119

Reported-by: Dima Tisnek

Uses a separate build without --enable-debug and no valgrind.

The debug option causes far too many warnings in boringssl's headers
(C++ comments, trailing commas etc).  Valgrind triggers some false
positive errors in thread-local data used by boringssl.

Closes #2118

commit d3ab7c5a broke the boringssl build since it doesn't have
RSA_flags(), so we disable that code block for boringssl builds.

Fixes #2117

This bit is no longer used. It is not clear what it meant for users to
"init the TLS" in a world with different TLS backends and since the
introduction of multissl, libcurl didn't properly work if inited without
this bit set.

Not a single user responded to the call for users of it:

CVE-2017-8816

Bug: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_2017-11e7.html

The code would previous read beyond the end of the pattern string if the
match pattern ends with an open bracket when the default pattern
matching function is used.

CVE-2017-8817

Bug: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_2017-ae72.html

- Align the array of ssl_backend_data on a max 32 byte boundary.

8 is likely to be ok but I went with 32 for posterity should one of
the ssl_backend_data structs change to contain a larger sized variable
in the future.

Prior to this change (since dev 70f1db32, release 7.56) the connectdata
structure was undersized by 4 bytes in 32-bit builds with ssl enabled
because long long * was mistakenly used for alignment instead of
long long, with the intention being an 8 byte boundary. Also long long
may not be an available type.

The undersized connectdata could lead to oob read/write past the end in
what was expected to be the last 4 bytes of the connection's secondary
socket https proxy ssl_backend_data struct (the secondary socket in a
connection is used by ftp, others?).

CVE-2017-8818

Bug: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_2017-af0a.html

With this check present, scan-build warns that we might dereference this
point in other places where it isn't first checked for NULL. Thus, if it
*can* be NULL we have a problem on a few places. However, this pointer
should not be possible to be NULL here so I remove the check and thus
also three different scan-build warnings.

Closes #2111

* LOTS of comment updates
* explicit error for SMB shares (e.g. "file:////share/path/file")
* more strict handling of authority (i.e. "//localhost/")
* now accepts dodgy old "C:|" drive letters
* more precise handling of drive letters in and out of Windows
  (especially recognising both "file:c:/" and "file:/c:/")

Closes #2110

Closes #2109

The new API added in Linux 4.11 only requires setting a socket option
before connecting, without the whole sento() machinery.

Notably, this makes it possible to use TFO with SSL connections on Linux
as well, without the need to mess around with OpenSSL (or whatever other
SSL library) internals.

by not using connectx function.
