postit.c is removed, it used the deprecated curl_formparse() and may

encourage people to use bad functions

- * Example code that uploads a file name 'foo' to a remote script that accepts
- * "HTML form based" (as described in RFC1738) uploads using HTTP POST.
- *
- * The imaginary form we'll fill in looks like:
- *
- * <form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="examplepost.cgi">
- * Enter file: <input type="file" name="sendfile" size="40">
- * Enter file name: <input type="text" name="filename" size="30">
- * <input type="submit" value="send" name="submit">
- * </form>
- *
- * This exact source code has not been verified to work.
