For cases with dual stack (IPv4 + IPv6) connectivity, but where one
stack potentially is less reliable, strive to trying to connect over
both protocols in parallel, using whichever address connected first.
In cases with a hostname resolving to multiple IPv4 and IPv6
addresses, the current connection mechanism would try all addresses
in the order returned by getaddrinfo (with all IPv6 addresses ordered
before the IPv4 addresses normally). If connection attempts to the
IPv6 addresses return quickly with an error, this was no problem, but
if they were unsuccessful leading up to timeouts, the connection process
would have to wait for timeouts on all IPv6 target addresses before
attempting any IPv4 address.
Similar to what RFC 8305 suggests, reorder the list of addresses to
try connecting to, interleaving address families. After starting one
connection attempt, start another one in parallel after a small delay
(200 ms as suggested by the RFC).
For cases with unreliable IPv6 but reliable IPv4, this should make
connection attempts work as reliably as with plain IPv4, with only an
extra 200 ms of connection delay.

TLS is currently implemented over either OpenSSL or GnuTLS, with more
backends likely to appear in the future. Currently, those backend libraries
are part of the protocol names used during e.g. the configure stage of a
build. Hide those details behind a generically-named declaration for the
TLS protocol to avoid leaking those details into the configuration stage.
OSX does not know MSG_NOSIGNAL. BSD (which OSX is based on) has got
the socket option SO_NOSIGPIPE (even if modern BSDs also support
MSG_NOSIGNAL).

This supports non-Linux systems (SOCK_CLOEXEC is non-standard) and
older Linux kernels to the extent possible.

This lowers the level of warnings printed if trying to connect
to a host name that provides both v6 and v4 addresses but the
service only is available on the v4 address (often occurring for
'localhost', with servers that aren't v6-aware).

HAVE_THREADS is set in config.h if pthreads or w32threads is
available, which presumably the proper condition here.
Also fixes undefined behaviour in preprocessor directives.

Since the errno.h values don't match the error codes that winsock
returns, map the winsock error codes to the errno ones, to make
sure explicit checks against AVERROR(x) match.

This is to make developers aware of the fact that they will
start using the new init function at some point.

Since 1.0.0, this function is deprecated. A new function,
CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback is available, but if not set at all,
it uses the address of errno as thread id, which should be
sufficient for most systems.
On windows, it never was necessary to use this function even
before 1.0.0, it used the right win32 API function for this
by default.
