tool: add "variable" support

Add support for command line variables. Set variables with --variable
name=content or --variable name@file (where "file" can be stdin if set
to a single dash (-)).

Variable content is expanded in option parameters using "{{name}}"
(without the quotes) if the option name is prefixed with
"--expand-". This gets the contents of the variable "name" inserted, or
a blank if the name does not exist as a variable. Insert "{{" verbatim
in the string by prefixing it with a backslash, like "\\{{".

Import an environment variable with --variable %name. It makes curl exit
with an error if the environment variable is not set. It can also rather
get a default value if the variable does not exist, using =content or
@file like shown above.

Example: get the USER environment variable into the URL:

--variable %USER
--expand-url = "https://example.com/api/{{USER}}/method"

When expanding variables, curl supports a set of functions that can make
the variable contents more convenient to use. It can trim leading and
trailing white space with "trim", output the contents as a JSON quoted
string with "json", URL encode it with "url" and base 64 encode it with
"b64". To apply functions to a variable expansion, add them colon
separated to the right side of the variable. They are then performed in
a left to right order.

Example: get the contents of a file called $HOME/.secret into a variable
called "fix". Make sure that the content is trimmed and percent-encoded
sent as POST data:

--variable %HOME=/home/default
--expand-variable fix@{{HOME}}/.secret
--expand-data "{{fix:trim:url}}"
https://example.com/

Documented. Many new test cases.

tool: improve --stderr handling

- freopen stderr with the user-specified file (--stderr file) instead of
using a separate 'errors' stream.

- In tool_setup.h override stdio.h's stderr macro as global variable
tool_stderr.

Both freopen and overriding the stderr macro are necessary because if
the user-specified filename is "-" then stdout is assigned to
tool_stderr and no freopen takes place. See the PR for more information.

- make --show-error toggle independently of --silent
- make --silent independent of ->noprogress as well

By doing this, the three options --silent, --no-progress-meter and
--show-error should work independently of each other and also work with
and without '--no-' prefix as documented.

curl: add --url-query

This option adds a piece of data, usually a name + value pair, to the
end of the URL query part. The syntax is identical to that used for
--data-urlencode with one extension:

If the argument starts with a '+' (plus), the rest of the string is
provided as-is unencoded.

This allows users to "build" query parts with options and URL encoding
even when not doing GET requests, which the already provided option -G
(--get) is limited to.

This idea was born in a Twitter thread.

curl: timeout in the read callback

The read callback can timeout if there's nothing to read within the
given maximum period. Example use case is when doing "curl -m 3

similar that otherwise would "hang" until something happens and then not
respect the timeout.

NPN: remove support for and use of

Next Protocol Negotiation is a TLS extension that was created and used
for agreeing to use the SPDY protocol (the precursor to HTTP/2) for
HTTPS. In the early days of HTTP/2, before the spec was finalized and
shipped, the protocol could be enabled using this extension with some
servers.

curl supports the NPN extension with some TLS backends since then, with
a command line option `--npn` and in libcurl with
`CURLOPT_SSL_ENABLE_NPN`.

HTTP/2 proper is made to use the ALPN (Application-Layer Protocol
Negotiation) extension and the NPN extension has no purposes
anymore. The HTTP/2 spec was published in May 2015.

Today, use of NPN in the wild should be extremely rare and most likely
totally extinct. Chrome removed NPN support in Chrome 51, shipped in
June 2016. Removed in Firefox 53, April 2017.
