examples: adhere to curl code style

All plain C examples now (mostly) adhere to the curl code style. While
they are only examples, they had diverted so much and contained all
sorts of different mixed code styles by now. Having them use a unified
style helps users and readability. Also, as they get copy-and-pasted
widely by users, making sure they're clean and nice is a good idea.

remove the CVSish $Id$ lines

Fixed a surprising number of example programs that were passing int arguments
to curl_easy_setopt instead of long.

Fixed some more simple compile warnings in the examples.

Fixed some compile warnings and errors and improved portability in the
