2014-12-04libcurl: add UNIX domain sockets supportPeter Wu
The ability to do HTTP requests over a UNIX domain socket has been requested before, in Apr 2008 [0][1] and Sep 2010 [2]. While a discussion happened, no patch seems to get through. I decided to give it a go since I need to test a nginx HTTP server which listens on a UNIX domain socket. One patch [3] seems to make it possible to use the CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETFUNCTION function to gain a UNIX domain socket. Another person wrote a Go program which can do HTTP over a UNIX socket for Docker[4] which uses a special URL scheme (though the name contains cURL, it has no relation to the cURL library). This patch considers support for UNIX domain sockets at the same level as HTTP proxies / IPv6, it acts as an intermediate socket provider and not as a separate protocol. Since this feature affects network operations, a new feature flag was added ("unix-sockets") with a corresponding CURL_VERSION_UNIX_SOCKETS macro. A new CURLOPT_UNIX_SOCKET_PATH option is added and documented. This option enables UNIX domain sockets support for all requests on the handle (replacing IP sockets and skipping proxies). A new configure option (--enable-unix-sockets) and CMake option (ENABLE_UNIX_SOCKETS) can disable this optional feature. Note that I deliberately did not mark this feature as advanced, this is a feature/component that should easily be available.

2014-11-19multi-uv.c: Updated for curl coding standardsSteve Holme
2014-11-19examples: Wait recommended 100ms when no file descriptors are readyJay Satiro
Prior to this change when no file descriptors were ready on platforms other than Windows the multi examples would sleep whatever was in timeout, which may or may not have been less than the minimum recommended value [1] of 100ms. [1]: http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_multi_fdset.html
2014-11-19multi-uv.c: close the file handle after downloadWaldek Kozba
2014-11-15examples: Don't call select() to sleep on windowsJay Satiro
Windows does not support using select() for sleeping without a dummy socket. Instead use Windows' Sleep() and sleep for 100ms which is the minimum suggested value in the curl_multi_fdset() doc. Prior to this change the multi examples would exit prematurely since select() would error instead of sleeping when called without an fd.

Reworked the two sections that discuss modifying the Visual Studio pre- processor settings, and vc6libcurl.dsw/vc6libcurl.dsp, to remove the project files references as they have been superseded by a more thorough set of project files for VC6 through VC12, but to also give the correct reference to this setting in later versions of Visual Studio.
