Here's a script to

  1. detect global functions within the library that are not used outside the single function where it is defined and
  2. detect functions using the curl_ - prefix without being part of the public API

... and the associated changes to a bunch of files to cleanup all issues the script detected. I'll subsequently have a go and see if I can add the script to one or more of the travis builds to make sure we detect these mistakes/optimizations before they land.

(I intend so squash all these into a single commit for the changes and one for the script before merging)

Running the script automatically in travis is probably far too troublesome due to all the various special builds we have. I'll just add the script for manual use.

urlapi: turn three local-only functions into statics

conncache: make conncache_find_first_connection static

multi: make detach_connnection static

connect: make getaddressinfo static

curl_ntlm_core: make hmac_md5 static

http2: make two functions static

http: make http_setup_conn static

connect: make tcpnodelay static

tests: make UNITTEST a thing to mark functions with, so they can be static for
normal builds and non-static for unit test builds

... and mark Curl_shuffle_addr accordingly.

url: make up_free static

setopt: make vsetopt static

curl_endian: make write32_le static

rtsp: make rtsp_connisdead static

warnless: remove unused functions

memdebug: remove one unused function, made another static
That is functions that are declared global but are not used from outside
of the file in which it is declared. Such functions should be made
static or even at times be removed.

It also verifies that all used curl_ prefixed functions are "blessed"
