This adds support for `CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION`[^1] Curl option to set a
custom callback that gets called with debug information during the
lifetime of a Curl request.
The callback gets called with the `CurlHandle` object, an integer
containing the type of the debug message, and a string containing the
debug message. The callback may get called multiple times with the
same message type during a request.
PHP already uses `CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION` functionality to internally
to expose a Curl option named `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT`.
However,`CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT` is not a "real" Curl option supported
by libcurl. Back in 2006, `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT` was added[^2] as
a Curl option by using the debug-callback feature. Git history does
not run that back to show why `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT` was added as a
Curl option, and why the other debug types (such as
`CURLINFO_HEADER_IN` were not added as Curl options, but this seems
to be a historical artifact when we added features without trying
to be close to libcurl options.
This approach has a few issues:
1. `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT` is not an actual Curl option supported by
upstream libcurl.
2. All of the Curl options have `CURLOPT_` prefix, and `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT`
is the only Curl "option" that uses the `CURLINFO` prefix. This exception
is, however, noted[^3] in docs.
3. When `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT` is set, the `CURLOPT_VERBOSE` is also implicitly
set. This was reported[^4] to bugs.php.net, but the bug is marked as wontfix.
This commit adds support for `CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION`. It extends the existing
`curl_debug` callback to store the header-in information if it encounters
a debug message with `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT`. In all cases, if a callable
is set, it gets called.
`CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION` intends to replace `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT` Curl
option as a versatile alternative that can also be used to extract
other debug information such as SSL data, text information messages,
incoming headers, as well as headers sent out (which `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT`
makes available).
The callables are allowed to throw exceptions, but the return values are
ignored.
`CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION` requires `CURLOPT_VERBOSE` enabled, and setting
`CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION` does _not_ implicitly enable `CURLOPT_VERBOSE`.
If the `CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION` option is set, setting `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT`
throws a `ValueError` exception. Setting `CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION` _after_
enabling `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT` is allowed. Technically, it is possible
for both functionality (calling user-provided callback _and_ storing
header-out data) is possible, setting `CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT` is not
allowed to encourage the use of `CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION` function.
This commit also adds the rest of the `CURLINFO_` constants used as
the `type` integer value in `CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION` callback.

Curl >= 7.80.0 supports declaring a function for `CURLOPT_PREREQFUNCTION` option
that gets called after Curl establishes a connection (including the TLS handshake
for HTTPS connections), but before the actual request is made.
The callable must return either `CURL_PREREQFUNC_OK` or `CURL_PREREQFUNC_ABORT` to
allow or abort the request.
This adds support for it to PHP with required ifdef.

Bumps the minimum required libcurl version to 7.61.0.
Please also see #4917, which bumped minimum libcurl version to the current >= 7.29.0.
This bumps the minimum requirement to Curl 7.61.0 (released 2018 Sept).
Ubuntu, Debian, RHEL, and RHEL derivatives have major and LTS version bumps this year. Following are the
libcurl-dev/libcurl-devel versions available in the oldest supported (LTS or otherwise) in major OSs.
- Debian buster: [7.64](https://packages.debian.org/buster/libcurl4-openssl-dev)
- Ubuntu 20.04: [7.68](https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/libcurl-dev)
- CentOS/RHEL 7: 7.29
- RHEL 8/Rocky 8/EL 8: 7.61
- Fedora 38: 7.87
RHEL/CentOS 7 reaches EOL mid 2024, so for PHP 8.4 scheduled towards the end of this year, we can safely
bump the minimum libcurl version.
7.61.0 was selected as the new minimum because RHEL and derivatives have libcurl-devel version 7.61. RHEL 8 is
a current and supported RHEL version.
The `sync_constants.php` file uncovers constants present in libcurl source, but\
not present in PHP ext/curl source. There is a regular expression to match
Curl constants, but to it did not previously include `CURLE_*` and `CURLINFO_*`
constants, which PHP should expose as constants.
This updates the `sync_constants.php` file's constant filter regex to expose those
constants patterns as well. The new missing constants will be added in a later PR.
`CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION` is available as of cURL 7.32.0, and
supersedes `CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION` which is still supported by
latest cURL, though.
Closes GH-7823.
This patch makes several scripts and PHP development tools files
executable and adds more proper shebangs to the PHP scripts.
The `#!/usr/bin/env php` shebang provides running the script via
`./script.php` and uses env to find PHP script location on the system.
At the same time it still provides running the script with a user
defined PHP location using `php script.php`.
The existence of the following functions is now guaranteed:
* curl_escape()
* curl_unescape()
* curl_multi_setopt()
libcurl 7.15.5 has been released 11.5 years ago and is available
even in RHEL 5.
