The initial HTTP request can now be sent in multiple parts, as part of the
regular transfer process. This required some new tweaks, like for example
we need to be able to tell the tranfer loop to not chunky-encode uploads
while we're transferring the rest of the request...

A normal POST now provides data to the main transfer loop via the usual
read callback, and thus won't put a lot of stress on the request sending
code (which currently does an ugly loop).

The fread() callback pointer and associated pointer is now stored in the
connectdata struct instead, and is no longer modified within the 'set' struct
as previously (which was a really BAAAD

The fread() callback pointer and associated pointer is now stored in the
connectdata struct instead, and is no longer modified within the 'set' struct
as previously (which was a really BAAAD thing).

only use Content-Length: header if not transfering data chunked

Moved the compareheader function into this file and added Curl_ prefix
We now check if the chunked transfer-encoding header has been added "by force"
and if so, we enabled the chunky upload!

Dan Becker fixed a minor memory leak on persistent connnections using
FOLLOWLOCATION and CURLOPT_USERPWD.

moved the bools in the connectdata struct into the substruct named
ConnectBits where the other bools already are

Now supports "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" for HTTP PUT operations where the
size of the uploaded file is unknown.

Jeff Lawson fixed a few problems with connection re-use that remained when
you set CURLOPT_PROXY to "".

make sure we free rangeline before we re-assign it to a new allocated
memory as otherwise we (might) leak memory

removed use of extra unneeded variable

better deal with HTTP(S) servers that respond with no headers at all, test
case 306 added to verify that we do right

Lukasz Czekierda correctly pointed out that curl used a bad Host: header
when talking to a IPv6-server using IPv6 IP address only.

updated source code boilerplate/header

James Gallagher's Content-Encoding work

SOCKS5 support added (contributed by a still unnamed person). Not properly
working for "IPv6 enabled" libcurls yet, but should be pretty easy for
someone to adjust.

Andrew Francis removed the need for/use of MSVC pragmas

added disable-[protocol] support, largely provided by Miklos Nemeth

make sure data->set.postfields is non-NULL before doing strlen() on the
pointer. Bugs item #566835.

T. Bharath made the request size add up as it is documented to do.

renamed the TIMECOND defines to be CURL_ prefixed

This makes formposting with a specified file missing fail. curl_easy_perform
will then return CURLE_READ_ERROR.

the HTTP request is a CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT

Jean-Philippe Barrette-LaPierre provided his patch that introduces
CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION and CURLOPT_DEBUGDATA.

error code cleanup, use the new SEND/RECV errors
