cpool: rename "connection cache/conncache" to "Connection Pools/cpool"

This is a better match for what they do and the general "cpool"
var/function prefix works well.

The pool now handles very long hostnames correctly.

The following changes have been made:

* 'struct connectdata', e.g. connections, keep new members
named `destination` and ' destination_len' that fully specifies
interface+port+hostname of where the connection is going to.
This is used in the pool for "bundling" of connections with
the same destination. There is no limit on the length any more.
* Locking: all locks are done inside conncache.c when calling
into the pool and released on return. This eliminates hazards
of the callers keeping track.
* 'struct connectbundle' is now internal to the pool. It is no
longer referenced by a connection.
* 'bundle->multiuse' no longer exists. HTTP/2 and 3 and TLS filters
no longer need to set it. Instead, the multi checks on leaving
MSTATE_CONNECT or MSTATE_CONNECTING if the connection is now
multiplexed and new, e.g. not conn->bits.reuse. In that case
the processing of pending handles is triggered.
* The pool's init is provided with a callback to invoke on all
connections being discarded. This allows the cleanups in
`Curl_disconnect` to run, wherever it is decided to retire
a connection.
* Several pool operations can now be fully done with one call.
Pruning dead connections, upkeep and checks on pool limits
can now directly discard connections and need no longer return
those to the caller for doing that (as we have now the callback
described above).
* Finding a connection for reuse is now done via `Curl_cpool_find()`
and the caller provides callbacks to evaluate the connection
candidates.
* The 'Curl_cpool_check_limits()' now directly uses the max values
that may be set in the transfer's multi. No need to pass them
around. Curl_multi_max_host_connections() and
Curl_multi_max_total_connections() are gone.
* Add method 'Curl_node_llist()' to get the llist a node is in.
Used in cpool to verify connection are indeed in the list (or
not in any list) as they need to.

I left the conncache.[ch] as is for now and also did not touch the
documentation. If we update that outside the feature window, we can
do this in a separate PR.

Multi-thread safety is not achieved by this PR, but since more details
on how pools operate are now "internal" it is a better starting
point to go for this in the future.

Closes #14662

urldata: make magic be the first struct field

By making the `magic` identifier the same size and at the same place
within the structs (easy, multi, share), libcurl will be able to more
reliably detect and safely error out if an application passes in the
wrong handle to APIs. Easier to detect and less likely to cause crashes
if done.

Such mixups can't be detected at compile-time due to them being
typedefed void pointers - unless `CURL_STRICTER` is defined.

build: fix circular header inclusion with other packages

This commit renames lib/setup.h to lib/curl_setup.h and
renames lib/setup_once.h to lib/curl_setup_once.h.

Removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard foreign
to libcurl. [1]

Removes the need and presence of an alarming notice we carried
in old setup_once.h [2]

----------------------------------------

1 - lib/setup_once.h used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro as header inclusion guard
up to commit ec691ca3 which changed this to HEADER_CURL_SETUP_ONCE_H,
this single inclusion guard is enough to ensure that inclusion of
lib/setup_once.h done from lib/setup.h is only done once.

Additionally lib/setup.h has always used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro to
protect inclusion of setup_once.h even after commit ec691ca3, this
was to avoid a circular header inclusion triggered when building a
c-ares enabled version with c-ares sources available which also has
a setup_once.h header. Commit ec691ca3 exposes the real nature of
__SETUP_ONCE_H usage in lib/setup.h, it is a header inclusion guard
foreign to libcurl belonging to c-ares's setup_once.h

The renaming this commit does, fixes the circular header inclusion,
and as such removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard
foreign to libcurl. Macro __SETUP_ONCE_H no longer used in libcurl.

2 - Due to the circular interdependency of old lib/setup_once.h and the
c-ares setup_once.h header, old file lib/setup_once.h has carried
back from 2006 up to now days an alarming and prominent notice about
the need of keeping libcurl's and c-ares's setup_once.h in sync.

Given that this commit fixes the circular interdependency, the need
and presence of mentioned notice is removed.

All mentioned interdependencies come back from now old days when
the c-ares project lived inside a curl subdirectory. This commit
removes last traces of such fact.
