There is no curl_multi_reset(). I have never seen anyone wanting one or having
had a good reason for it.

What would you like the reset to do? Just restore all setopts to their default
values?

Nothing. There's no persistent error state stored in the handle. An
application could very well spend forever just using the same multi handle,
adding and removing easy handles over time.
