CURLOPT_TIMEOUT.3: Clarify transfer timeout time includes queue time

Prior to this change some users did not understand that the "request"
starts when the handle is added to the multi handle, or probably they
did not understand that some of those transfers may be queued and that
time is included in timeout.

tool_operate: Fix retry sleep time shown to user when Retry-After

- If server header Retry-After is being used for retry sleep time then
show that value to the user instead of the normal retry sleep time.

This is a follow-up to 640b973 (7.66.0) which changed curl tool so that
the value from Retry-After header overrides other retry timing options.

url: normalize CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL

The URL extracted with CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL was returned as given as
input in most cases, which made it not get a scheme prefixed like before
if the URL was given without one, and it didn't remove dotdot sequences
etc.

Added test case 1907 to verify that this now works as intended and as
before 7.62.0.
