When performing COOKIELIST operations the cookie lock needs to be taken
for the cases where the cookies are shared among multiple handles!

When curl_multi_wait() finds no file descriptor to wait for, it returns
instantly and this must be handled gracefully within curl_easy_perform()
or cause a busy-loop. Starting now, repeated fast returns without any
file descriptors is detected and a gradually increasing sleep will be
used (up to a max of 1000 milliseconds) before continuing the loop.

The initial fix to only compare full path names were done in commit
04f52e9b but found out to be incomplete. This takes should make the
change more complete and there's now two additional tests to verify
(test 31 and 62).

Makes it build on windows

By always returning the md5 for an empty body when auth-int is asked
for, libcurl now at least sometimes does the right thing.

Allow less room for "triggered too early" mistakes by applications /
timers on non-windows platforms. Starting now, we assume that a timeout
call is never made earlier than 3 milliseconds before the actual
timeout. This greatly improves timeout accuracy on Linux.

In the pkcs12 code, we get a list of x509 records returned from
PKCS12_parse but when iterating over the list and passing each to
SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert() we didn't also properly remove them from
the "stack", which made them get freed twice (both in sk_X509_pop_free()
and then later in SSL_CTX_free).

This isn't really documented anywhere...

When VERIFYHOST == 0, libcurl should let invalid certificates to pass.

After curl_multi_wait() returns, this test checked that we got exactly
one file descriptor told to read from, but we cannot be sure that is
true. curl_multi_wait() will sometimes return earlier without any file
descriptor to handle, just just because it is a suitable time to call
*perform().

This problem showed up with commit 29bf0598.

If an ipv6-address is provided to CONNECT, the last hexadecimal group in
the address will be used as the test number! For example the address
"[1234::ff]" would be treated as test case 255.

commit 29bf0598 introduced a problem when the "internal" timeout is
prefered to the given if shorter, as it didn't consider the case where
-1 was returned. Now the internal timeout is only considered if not -1.

Also added a (correctly-escaped) backslash to the autoexec.bat
example file and a new Windows character device name with
a colon as examples of other characters that are special
and potentially dangerous (this reverts and reworks commit
7d8d2a54).

If the multi handle's pending timeout is less than what is passed into
this function, it will now opt to use the shorter time anyway since it
is a very good hint that the handle wants to process something in a
shorter time than what otherwise would happen.

curl_multi_wait.3 was updated accordingly to clarify

This is the reason for bug #1224

... because there's an identical check right next to it so using the
operators in the check in the same order increases readability.

A single backslash in the content is not legal nroff syntax.

SSL_read can return 0 for "not successful", according to the open SSL
documentation: http://www.openssl.org/docs/ssl/SSL_read.html

We found that in specific cases if the connection is abruptly closed,
the underlying socket is listed in a close_wait state. We continue to
call the curl_multi_perform, curl_mutli_fdset etc. None of these APIs
report the socket closed / connection finished.  Since we have cases
where the multi connection is only used once, this can pose a problem
for us. I've read that if another connection was to come in, curl would
see the socket as bad and attempt to close it at that time -
unfortunately, this does not work for us.

I found that in specific situations, if SSL_write returns 0, curl did
not recognize the socket as closed (or errored out) and did not report
it to the application. I believe we need to change the code slightly, to
check if ssl_write returns 0. If so, treat it as an error - the same as
a negative return code.

For OpenSSL - the ssl_write documentation is here:

1 - don't skip host names with a colon in them in an attempt to bail out
on HTTP headers in the cookie file parser. It was only a shortcut anyway
and trying to parse a file with HTTP headers will still be handled, only
slightly slower.

2 - don't skip domain names based on number of dots. The original
netscape cookie spec had this oddity mentioned and while our code
decreased the check to only check for two, the existing cookie spec has
no such dot counting required.
