Nis Jorgensen filed bug report #1338648
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1338648) which really is more of a
feature request, but anyway. It pointed out that --max-redirs did not allow
it to be set to 0, which then would return an error code on the first
Location: found. Based on Nis' patch, now libcurl supports CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS
set to 0, or -1 for infinity. Added test case 274 to verify.

tommink[at]post.pl reported in bug report #1337723
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1337723) that curl could not upload
binary data from stdin on Windows if the data contained control-Z (hex 1a)
since that is treated as end-of-file when read in text mode. Gisle Vanem
pointed out the fix, and I made both -T and --data-binary take advantage of
it.

Jaz Fresh pointed out that if you used "-r [number]" as was wrongly described
in the man page, curl would send an invalid HTTP Range: header. The correct
way would be to use "-r [number]-" or even "-r -[number]". Starting now,
curl will warn if this is discovered, and automatically append a dash to the
range before passing it to libcurl.

Dima Barsky reported a problem with GnuTLS-enabled libcurl in bug report
#1334338 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1334338). When reading an SSL
stream from a server and the server requests a "rehandshake", the current
code simply returns this as an error. I have no good way to test this, but
I've added a crude attempt of dealing with this situation slightly better -
it makes a blocking handshake if this happens. Done like this because fixing
this the "proper" way (that would handshake asynchronously) will require
quite some work and I really need a good way to test this to do such a
change.

Dave Dribin made libcurl understand and handle cases when the server
(wrongly) sends *two* WWW-Authenticate headers for Digest. While this should
never happen in a sane world, libcurl previously got into an infinite loop

Reverted the LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM change from October 6. As Dave Dribin
