Use Unix when generically writing about Unix based systems as UNIX is
the trademark and should only be used in a particular product's name.

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.

Fix detection of the AsynchDNS feature which not just depends on
pthreads support, but also on whether USE_POSIX_THREADS is set or not.
Caught by test 1014.
This patch adds a new ENABLE_THREADED_RESOLVER option (corresponding to
--enable-threaded-resolver of autotools) which also needs a check for
HAVE_PTHREAD_H.
For symmetry with autotools, CURL_USE_ARES is renamed to ENABLE_ARES
(--enable-ares). Checks that test for the availability actually use
USE_ARES instead as that is the result of whether a-res is available or
not (in practice this does not matter as CARES is marked as required
package, but nevertheless it is better to write the intent).

At this point I can build libcurl on windows. It provides at least the same
list of protocols as for linux build and works with our software.

It's by convention, for compatibility and because the comments say so.
Just mabe someone have written a test like "#if HAVE_XX==1"

This is just fundamentally broken. SPNEGO (RFC4178) is a protocol which
allows client and server to negotiate the underlying mechanism which will
actually be used to authenticate. This is *often* Kerberos, and can also
be NTLM and other things. And to complicate matters, there are various
different OIDs which can be used to specify the Kerberos mechanism too.
A SPNEGO exchange will identify *which* GSSAPI mechanism is being used,
and will exchange GSSAPI tokens which are appropriate for that mechanism.
But this SPNEGO implementation just strips the incoming SPNEGO packet
and extracts the token, if any. And completely discards the information
about *which* mechanism is being used. Then we *assume* it was Kerberos,
and feed the token into gss_init_sec_context() with the default
mechanism (GSS_S_NO_OID for the mech_type argument).
Furthermore... broken as this code is, it was never even *used* for input
tokens anyway, because higher layers of curl would just bail out if the
server actually said anything *back* to us in the negotiation. We assume
that we send a single token to the server, and it accepts it. If the server
wants to continue the exchange (as is required for NTLM and for SPNEGO
to do anything useful), then curl was broken anyway.
So the only bit which actually did anything was the bit in
Curl_output_negotiate(), which always generates an *initial* SPNEGO
token saying "Hey, I support only the Kerberos mechanism and this is its
token".
You could have done that by manually just prefixing the Kerberos token
with the appropriate bytes, if you weren't going to do any proper SPNEGO
handling. There's no need for the FBOpenSSL library at all.
The sane way to do SPNEGO is just to *ask* the GSSAPI library to do
SPNEGO. That's what the 'mech_type' argument to gss_init_sec_context()
is for. And then it should all Just Workâ˘.
That 'sane way' will be added in a subsequent patch, as will bug fixes
for our failure to handle any exchange other than a single outbound
token to the server which results in immediate success.

This bumps the minimal supported version of NSS to 3.12.x.

configure script now provides conditional definitions for Makefile.am
that result in CURL_HIDDEN_SYMBOLS being defined by resulting makefiles
when appropriate.
Additionally, configure script option for symbol hiding control is now
named --enable-symbol-hiding --disable-symbol-hiding. While still valid,
old option name --enable-hidden-symbols --disable-hidden-symbols will
be deprecated in some future release.

Enable OpenLDAP support for cygwin builds. This support was disabled back
in 2008 due to incompatibilities between OpenSSL and OpenLDAP headers.
cygwin's OpenSSL 0.9.8l and OpenLDAP 2.3.43 versions on cygwin 1.5.25
allow building an OpenLDAP enabled libcurl supporting back to Windows 95.
Remove non-functional CURL_LDAP_HYBRID code and references.

This is Hoi-Ho Chan's patch with some minor fixes by me. There
are some potential issues in this, but none worse than we can
sort out on the list and over time.

This commit fixes the cmake build of curl, and cleans up the
cmake code a little. It removes some commented out code and
some trailing whitespace. To get curl to build the binary
tree include/curl directory needed to be added to the include
path. Also, SIZEOF_SHORT needed to be added. A check for the
lack of defines of SIZEOF_* for warnless.c was added.
