tests: make the unit test result type `CURLcode`

Before this patch, the result code was a mixture of `int` and
`CURLcode`.

Also adjust casts and fix a couple of minor issues found along the way.

lib: feature deprecation warnings in gcc >= 4.3

Add a deprecated attribute to functions and enum values that should not
be used anymore.
This uses a gcc 4.3 dialect, thus is only available for this version of
gcc and newer. Note that the _Pragma() keyword is introduced by C99, but
is available as part of the gcc dialect even when compiling in C89 mode.

It is still possible to disable deprecation at a calling module compile
time by defining CURL_DISABLE_DEPRECATION.

Gcc type checking macros are made aware of possible deprecations.

Some testing support Perl programs are adapted to the extended
declaration syntax.

Several test and unit test C programs intentionally use deprecated
functions/options and are annotated to not generate a warning.

New test 1222 checks the deprecation status in doc and header files.

snprintf: renamed and we now only use msnprintf()

The function does not return the same value as snprintf() normally does,
so readers may be mislead into thinking the code works differently than
it actually does. A different function name makes this easier to detect.

curl/mprintf.h: remove support for _MPRINTF_REPLACE

The define is not in our name space and is therefore not protected by
our API promises.

It was only really used by libcurl internals but was mostly erased from
there already in 8aabbf5 (March 2015). This is supposedly the final
death blow to that define from everywhere.

As a side-effect, making sure _MPRINTF_REPLACE is gone and not used, I
made the lib tests in tests/libtest/ use curl_printf.h for its redefine
magic and then subsequently the use of sprintf() got banned in the tests
as well (as it is in libcurl internals) and I then replaced them all
with snprintf().

In the unlikely event that any users is actually using this define and
gets sad by this change, it is very easily copied to the user's own
code.

documented as deprecated for almost a decade and nobody even reported
this bug, it should remain functional.
