lib: Curl_read/Curl_write clarifications
- replace `Curl_read()`, `Curl_write()` and `Curl_nwrite()` to
clarify when and at what level they operate
- send/recv of transfer related data is now done via
`Curl_xfer_send()/Curl_xfer_recv()` which no longer has
socket/socketindex as parameter. It decides on the transfer
setup of `conn->sockfd` and `conn->writesockfd` on which
connection filter chain to operate.
- send/recv on a specific connection filter chain is done via
`Curl_conn_send()/Curl_conn_recv()` which get the socket index
as parameter.
- rename `Curl_setup_transfer()` to `Curl_xfer_setup()` for
naming consistency
- clarify that the special CURLE_AGAIN hangling to return
`CURLE_OK` with length 0 only applies to `Curl_xfer_send()`
and CURLE_AGAIN is returned by all other send() variants.
- fix a bug in websocket `curl_ws_recv()` that mixed up data
when it arrived in more than a single chunk
The method for sending not just raw bytes, but bytes that are either
"headers" or "body". The send abstraction stack, to to bottom, now is:
* `Curl_req_send()`: has parameter to indicate amount of header bytes,
buffers all data.
* `Curl_xfer_send()`: knows on which socket index to send, returns
amount of bytes sent.
* `Curl_conn_send()`: called with socket index, returns amount of bytes
sent.
In addition there is `Curl_req_flush()` for writing out all buffered
bytes.
`Curl_req_send()` is active for requests without body,
`Curl_buffer_send()` still being used for others. This is because the
special quirks need to be addressed in future parts:
* `expect-100` handling
* `Curl_fillreadbuffer()` needs to add directly to the new
`data->req.sendbuf`
* special body handlings, like `chunked` encodings and line end
conversions will be moved into something like a Client Reader.
In functions of the pattern `CURLcode xxx_send(..., ssize_t *written)`,
replace the `ssize_t` with a `size_t`. It makes no sense to allow for negative
values as the returned `CURLcode` already specifies error conditions. This
allows easier handling of lengths without casting.
Closes #12964
