asyn-thread: use c-ares to resolve HTTPS RR
Allow building with c-ares and yet use threaded resolver for the main
host A/AAAA resolving:
`--with-ares` provides the c-ares install path and defaults to use
c-ares for name resolving
`--with-threaded-resolver` still uses c-ares in the build (for HTTPS)
but uses the threaded resolver for "normal" resolves.
It works similarly for cmake: ENABLE_ARES enables ares, and if
ENABLE_THREADED_RESOLVER also is set, c-ares is used for HTTPS RR and
the threaded resolver for "normal" resolves.
HTTPSRR and c-ares-rr are new features return by curl_version_info() and
thus shown by curl -V.
The c-ares-rr feature bit is there to make it possible to distinguish
between builds using c-ares for all name resolves and builds that use
the threaded resolves for the regular name resolves and c-ares for
HTTPSRR only. "c-ares-rr" means it does not use c-ares for "plain" name
resolves.

easy_lock: use Sleep(1) for thread yield on old Windows
- Prefer Sleep(1) over sched_yield() for pre-Vista thread yield.
On Windows sched_yield is often implemented as Sleep(0) which only
yields to threads of highest priority to current priority. However,
during libcurl initialization if there is thread contention then it's
possible that there is a wait for a different library or OS thread of
a lesser priority and then the yield is not effective during that time.
On the other hand Sleep(1) will wait the minimum time slice which is
usually like 15ms or more.
Prior to this change 2c4bfef removed sched_yield detection on Windows,

change restores the yield but in a different way.

because it's the one recommended by CMake and for having its own
quirks we may want to know about.
- build, cache and use LibreSSL for these jobs.

- make Xcode generator work by explicitly disabling code signing.
- make tests and examples build with the Xcode generator by setting
`-DMACOSX_BUNDLE_GUI_IDENTIFIER=se.curl`, to avoid
"Bundle identifier is missing" errors.
- cmake: disable `CURL_USE_PKGCONFIG` by default for Apple device.
- cmake: add `stdc++` library for BoringSSL and AWS-LC, with
`OPENSSL_USE_STATIC_LIBS=ON` set.
- cmake: add workaround for Xcode generator issue, where it cannot
handle two targets depending on one custom command. A better fix may
be dropping `tool_hugehelp.c` and `tool_ca_embed.c` from curltool

Android:
- add vcpkg to Android jobs, enable dependencies. Assisted-by: Tal Regev via #16045
- make vcpkg work with autotools.
- pass `--with-brotli` to autotools to detect the vcpkg-supplied brotli.
- enable BoringSSL for Android and add a job with it.
- silence 457 CMake configure warnings about the Android NDK CMake
scripts targeting freshly deprecated CMake versions.
These were much more involved than imagined. Basically nothing works out
of the box, and when combined, everything becomes a unique edge case.
autotools builds were a much easier to make work than CMake ones.
Also:
- GHA/non-native: re-sync names to be shorter and more aligned with
other workflows.
- GHA: add `persist-credentials: false` where missing.
Unresolved issues:
- `OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR` ignored/mis-used when pointing it to LibreSSL.
CMake seems to prepend the sysroot to the passed absolute directory.
Found no workaround.
- CMake when combined with Android, both the Google-recommended method
and the built-in CMake method fail to provide a way to avoid
`pkg-config` packages at system directories. Failed to find a knob

Disabling `pkg-config` doesn't work because vcpkg dependencies do not
link without it.
- CMake's Xcode generator is slow because each `try_compile()` feature
check springs a new CMake + Xcode project taking a long time to run,
just to compile single-liner C files. A known issue, with no solution.
`-DCMAKE_MACOSX_BUNDLE=OFF` did not help, limiting build types to

In CMake builds, it was pre-cached as unavailable before this patch.
When detected (via autotools), it got only used for Windows XP or older

mingw-w64 only supports GCC and clang, leaving a very narrow chance when

It's also trivial to implement locally if it is, and such rare build
combination is also deemed useful.
