lib: new easy option string storage
Change the storage of easy handle option strings from an array sized for
all possible options to a hash set to reduce memory footprint.

Give the hash set initially room for 4 strings, with first allocation
happening when it goes beyond that. Measurements without test suite
and a forced fail on growing the set gives:

Size Result
2    1261 tests out of 1951 reported OK: 64%
4    1792 tests out of 1951 reported OK: 91%
8    1944 tests out of 1951 reported OK: 99%
16   1949 tests out of 1951 reported OK: 99%
32   single fail of 3211, unit test for u8_strset

Add u8_strset that keeps the tuples (uint8_t id, char *str)
and allows set/unset by `id`. Add that as data->set.strings.

Define MACROS
* CURL_EASY_STR(data, id) for access
* CURL_EASY_STR_SET(data, id, s) for setting, making a copy
* CURL_EASY_STR_SETN(data, id, s) for setting, no copy
* CURL_EASY_STR_CLEAR(data, id) for unsetting
* CURL_EASY_STR_CLEAR0(data, id) for unsetting and zero-ing value

Add `data->set.str_copypostfields` to handle former `STRING_COPYPOSTFIELDS`
string that was not always a string and could carry NUL bytes.

Add unit tests to test3211.

lib: optimize struct layouts for reduced memory usage
struct SingleRequest tweaks

- 'upgr101' from enum upgrade101 => 'unsigned char', saves three bytes
- made some 'unsigned char' => uint8_t
- moved 'io_flags' to fill a hole on 64-bit arch

struct UserDefined tweaks

- Sort the fields by size. Larger to smaller. Helps avoding holes.
- httpsig_algorithm moved
- FTP uint8_t fields moved
- new_file_perms moved
- rtspreq moved
- sort fields on size

- urldata: drop 'struct Curl_data_priority'

  It only had a single struct member 'weight'. Use that directly instead
  to save indirections and struct alignments. Move field for size order.

- urldata: move the RTSP fields in the UrlState struct to be ordered by
  size

struct PureInfo tweaks

- make 'pxcode' a uint8_t
- move 'conn_protocol' to fill a hole
- sort 'struct PureInfo' fields by size

rtsp: refactor method handling and improve error checks
- convert the method switch() to a simple table

- avoid converting the methods from external to internal numbers, they were
  the same anyway so keep the external ones, just use the old defines.

- fix range check. It wrongly used the method numbers as bitmask, which made
  the check not work previously. Also error on OOM.

- Dropped the session-id check. It too wrongly did a bitmask check which was
  wrong and never worked. When fixed, it broke test cases so I dropped the
  entire check.

- split out rtsp_setup_request() from rtsp_do()

- replace the httpversion variable with a define

httpsig: add RFC 9421 HTTP Message Signatures support
Add support for signing outgoing HTTP requests per RFC 9421 using
Ed25519 or HMAC-SHA256 algorithms.

New libcurl options:
 - CURLOPT_HTTPSIG: signing algorithm ("ed25519" or "hmac-sha256")
 - CURLOPT_HTTPSIG_KEY: path to hex-encoded key file
 - CURLOPT_HTTPSIG_KEYID: key identifier for Signature-Input
 - CURLOPT_HTTPSIG_HEADERS: space-separated components to sign

New CLI flags: --httpsig, --httpsig-key, --httpsig-keyid,
--httpsig-headers

The crypto layer follows the sha256.c multi-backend pattern with
implementations for OpenSSL (EVP_DigestSign) and wolfSSL
(wc_ed25519_sign_msg). HMAC-SHA256 uses the existing Curl_hmacit()
infrastructure which works on all backends.

hardening: add API guards
Add call stacks to easy and multi instances. Record ongoing API calls
and callback invocations there to detect recursion and not allowed
invocations.

Define enums for easy, multi and callbacks in `api.h`. In `api.c` define
properties for these functions:

- can they recurse
- is the easy/multi handle destroyed during the call or should it be
  good afterwards
- is the call allowed when a multi event callback is ongoing
- is the call allowed when a notification callback is ongoing

Entering a guard
- checks that passed CURL*/CURLM* are GOOD on entering
- checks that easy handle's `mid` is correct and it is known
  for it in the multi.
- checks that call properties are obeyed (recursion, callback checks)
- checks that passed CURL*/CURLM* are GOOD on leaving, unless call is
  known to kill it

Checks for ongoing callbacks inspect the whole call stack and catches
nested invocations (which our current flags can not).

Call stacks in easy/multi handle are fixed size and will deny recursion
when the limit is reached. The current limits are 7 for easy and 15 for
multi now.

Removes:
- multi->in_callback, check is done via call stack
- multi->in_ntfy_cb, check is done via call stack

The overhead in my tests seems minimal, if noticeable at all.

HTTP/3: add proxy CONNECT and MASQUE CONNECT-UDP support (ngtcp2 QUIC)
This patch adds two major proxy capabilities to curl (ngtcp2 QUIC):
- HTTP/3 Proxy CONNECT: Tunnel HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2 traffic through an
  HTTPS proxy that speaks HTTP/3 (QUIC) using the standard CONNECT
  method over an HTTP/3 connection.
- MASQUE CONNECT-UDP: Tunnel HTTP/3 (QUIC) traffic through an HTTP
  proxy (speaking HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, or HTTP/3) using the extended
  CONNECT method with the CONNECT-UDP protocol (RFC9297 & RFC9298).

Public API additions:
- `CURLPROXY_HTTPS3`: new proxy type constant for HTTP/3 proxy
- `--proxy-http3`: new CLI flag to negotiate HTTP/3 with HTTPS proxy

The implementation adds two new filters:
- `H3-PROXY` - enables negotiating HTTP/3 (QUIC) to the proxy and
  running CONNECT/CONNECT-UDP through that proxy transport.
- `CAPSULE` - dedicated filter inserted between QUIC transport and
  HTTP-PROXY to handle datagram capsule encapsulation/decapsulation.

Here is how the curl filter chaining looks in different scenarios:
- HTTP/3 Proxy CONNECT (tunneling TCP protocols over QUIC proxy):
  conn -> HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2  -> SSL -> HTTP-PROXY ->
                                 H3-PROXY -> HAPPY-EYEBALLS -> UDP
- MASQUE CONNECT-UDP (tunneling QUIC over any proxy):
  conn -> HTTP/3 -> CAPSULE -> HTTP-PROXY -> H3-PROXY ->
                               HAPPY-EYEBALLS -> UDP
  conn -> HTTP/3 -> CAPSULE -> HTTP-PROXY -> H1-PROXY or H2-PROXY ->
                               SSL -> HAPPY-EYEBALLS -> TCP

- Both features currently require the ngtcp2 QUIC backend.
- Both features are experimental (disabled by default). Enable with
  `--enable-proxy-http3`(autotools) or `-DUSE_PROXY_HTTP3=ON`(CMake).

Tests:
- tests/unit/unit3400.c: Unit tests for capsule protocol encode/decode
- tests/http/test_60_h3_proxy.py: Comprehensive pytest integration suite
- tests/http/testenv/h2o.py: Managing h2o instances with HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2,
  and HTTP/3 (QUIC) listeners, proxy.connect and proxy.connect-udp enabled.

lib: make resolving HTTPS DNS records reliable:
- allow to specify when they are wanted on starting a resolve
- match dns cache entries accordingly. An entry which never
  tried to get HTTPS-RRs is no answer for a resolve that wants
  it.
- fix late arrivals of resolve answers to match the "async"
  records that started them - if it still exists.
- provide for multiple "async" resolves in a transfer at the
  same time. We may need to resolve an IP interface while the
  main connection resolve has not finished yet.
- allow lookup of HTTPS-RR information as soon as it is
  available, even if A/AAAA queries are still ongoing.

For this, the "async" infrastructure is changed:

- Defined bits for DNS queries `CURL_DNSQ_A`, `CURL_DNSQ_AAAA`
  and `CURL_DNSQ_HTTPS`. These replace `ip_version` which says
  nothing about HTTPS.
  Use them in dns cache entries for matching.
- enhance the `async->id` to be a unique `uint32_t` for
  resolves inside one multi. This is weak, as the id may
  wrap around. However it is combined with the `mid` of
  the easy handle, making collisions highly unlikely.
  `data->state.async` is only accessed in few places where
  the mid/async-id match is performed.
- vtls: for ECH supporting TLS backends (openssl, rustls, wolfssl),
  retrieve the HTTPS-RR information from the dns connection filter.
  Delay the connect if the HTTPS-RR is needed, but has not
  been resolved yet.

The implementation of all this is complete for the threaded
resolver. c-ares resolver and DoH do not take advantage of
all new async features yet. To be done in separate PRs.

Details:

c-ares: cleanup settings and initialisation. Any ares channel
is only being created on starting a resolve and propagating
operations in setopt.c to the channel are not helpful.

Changed threaded+ares pollset handling so that they do not
overwrite each others `ASYNC_NAME` timeouts.

Add trace name 'threads' for tracing thread queue and
pool used by threaded resolver.

share: concurrency handling, easy updates
Replace the `volatile int dirty` with a reference counter
protected by a mutex when available.

Solve the problem of when to call application's lock function
by adding a volatile flag that indicates a share has been added
to easy handles in its lifetime. That flag ever goes from
FALSE to TRUE, so volatile might work (in the absence of a mutex).

(The problem is that the lock/unlock functions need 2-3
`curl_share_setopt()` invocations to become usable and there
is no way of telling if the third will ever happen. Calling
the lock function before the 3rd setopt may crash the
application.)

When removing a share from an easy handle (or replacing it with
another share), detach the easy connection on a share with a
connection pool.

When cleaning up a share, allow this even if it is still used in
easy handles. It will be destroyed when the reference count
drops to 0.
