The method for sending not just raw bytes, but bytes that are either
"headers" or "body". The send abstraction stack, to to bottom, now is:

* `Curl_req_send()`: has parameter to indicate amount of header bytes,
buffers all data.
* `Curl_xfer_send()`: knows on which socket index to send, returns
amount of bytes sent.
* `Curl_conn_send()`: called with socket index, returns amount of bytes
sent.

In addition there is `Curl_req_flush()` for writing out all buffered
bytes.

`Curl_req_send()` is active for requests without body,
`Curl_buffer_send()` still being used for others. This is because the
special quirks need to be addressed in future parts:

* `expect-100` handling
* `Curl_fillreadbuffer()` needs to add directly to the new
`data->req.sendbuf`
* special body handlings, like `chunked` encodings and line end
conversions will be moved into something like a Client Reader.

In functions of the pattern `CURLcode xxx_send(..., ssize_t *written)`,
replace the `ssize_t` with a `size_t`. It makes no sense to allow for negative
values as the returned `CURLcode` already specifies error conditions. This
allows easier handling of lengths without casting.

lib: replace readwrite with write_resp

This clarifies the handling of server responses by folding the code for
the complicated protocols into their protocol handlers. This concerns
mainly HTTP and its bastard sibling RTSP.

The terms "read" and "write" are often used without clear context if
they refer to the connect or the client/application side of a
transfer. This PR uses "read/write" for operations on the client side
and "send/receive" for the connection, e.g. server side. If this is
considered useful, we can revisit renaming of further methods in another
PR.

Curl's protocol handler `readwrite()` method been changed:

```diff
- CURLcode (*readwrite)(struct Curl_easy *data, struct connectdata *conn,
- const char *buf, size_t blen,
- size_t *pconsumed, bool *readmore);
+ CURLcode (*write_resp)(struct Curl_easy *data, const char *buf, size_t blen,
+ bool is_eos, bool *done);
```

The name was changed to clarify that this writes reponse data to the
client side. The parameter changes are:

* `conn` removed as it always operates on `data->conn`
* `pconsumed` removed as the method needs to handle all data on success
* `readmore` removed as no longer necessary
* `is_eos` as indicator that this is the last call for the transfer
response (end-of-stream).
* `done` TRUE on return iff the transfer response is to be treated as
finished

This change affects many files only because of updated comments in
handlers that provide no implementation. The real change is that the
HTTP protocol handlers now provide an implementation.

The HTTP protocol handlers `write_resp()` implementation will get passed
**all** raw data of a server response for the transfer. The HTTP/1.x
formatted status and headers, as well as the undecoded response
body. `Curl_http_write_resp_hds()` is used internally to parse the
response headers and pass them on. This method is public as the RTSP
protocol handler also uses it.

HTTP/1.1 "chunked" transport encoding is now part of the general
*content encoding* writer stack, just like other encodings. A new flag
`CLIENTWRITE_EOS` was added for the last client write. This allows
writers to verify that they are in a valid end state. The chunked
decoder will check if it indeed has seen the last chunk.

The general response handling in `transfer.c:466` happens in function
`readwrite_data()`. This mainly operates now like:

```
static CURLcode readwrite_data(data, ...)
{
do {
Curl_xfer_recv_resp(data, buf)
...
Curl_xfer_write_resp(data, buf)
...
} while(interested);
...
}
```

All the response data handling is implemented in
`Curl_xfer_write_resp()`. It calls the protocol handler's `write_resp()`
implementation if available, or does the default behaviour.

All raw response data needs to pass through this function. Which also
means that anyone in possession of such data may call
`Curl_xfer_write_resp()`.

vtls: localization of state data in filters

- almost all backend calls pass the Curl_cfilter intance instead of
connectdata+sockindex
- ssl_connect_data is remove from struct connectdata and made internal
to vtls
- ssl_connect_data is allocated in the added filter, kept at cf->ctx

- added function to let a ssl filter access its ssl_primary_config and
ssl_config_data this selects the propert subfields in conn and data,
for filters added as plain or proxy
- adjusted all backends to use the changed api
- adjusted all backends to access config data via the exposed
functions, no longer using conn or data directly

cfilter renames for clear purpose:

- methods `Curl_conn_*(data, conn, sockindex)` work on the complete
filter chain at `sockindex` and connection `conn`.
- methods `Curl_cf_*(cf, ...)` work on a specific Curl_cfilter
instance.
- methods `Curl_conn_cf()` work on/with filter instances at a
connection.
- rebased and resolved some naming conflicts
- hostname validation (und session lookup) on SECONDARY use the same
name as on FIRST (again).

new debug macros and removing connectdata from function signatures where not
needed.

adapting schannel for new Curl_read_plain paramter.

lib: pass in 'struct Curl_easy *' to most functions

... in most cases instead of 'struct connectdata *' but in some cases in

- We mostly operate on transfers and not connections.

- We need the transfer handle to log, store data and more. Everything in
libcurl is driven by a transfer (the CURL * in the public API).

- This work clarifies and separates the transfers from the connections
better.

- We should avoid "conn->data". Since individual connections can be used
by many transfers when multiplexing, making sure that conn->data
points to the current and correct transfer at all times is difficult
and has been notoriously error-prone over the years. The goal is to
ultimately remove the conn->data pointer for this reason.

gopher: Implement secure gopher protocol.

This commit introduces a "gophers" handler inside the gopher protocol if
USE_SSL is defined. This protocol is no different than the usual gopher
prococol, with the added TLS encapsulation upon connecting. The protocol
has been adopted in the gopher community, and many people have enabled
TLS in their gopher daemons like geomyidae(8), and clients, like clic(1)
and hurl(1).

I have not implemented test units for this protocol because my knowledge
of Perl is sub-par. However, for someone more knowledgeable it might be
fairly trivial, because the same test that tests the plain gopher
protocol can be used for "gophers" just by adding a TLS listener.
