- move host checks together
- simplify the scheme parser loop and the end of host name parser
- avoid itermediate buffer storing in multiple places
- reduce scope for several variables
- skip the Curl_dyn_tail() call for speed
- detect IPv6 earlier and skip extra checks for such hosts
- normalize directly in dynbuf instead of itermediate buffer
- split out the IPv6 parser into its own funciton
- call the IPv6 parser directly for ipv6 addresses
- remove (unused) special treatment of % in host names
- junkscan() once in the beginning instead of scattered
- make junkscan return error code
- remove unused query management from dedotdotify()
- make Curl_parse_login_details use memchr
- more use of memchr() instead of strchr() and less strlen() calls
- make junkscan check and return the URL length
An optimized build runs one of my benchmark URL parsing programs ~41%
faster using this branch. (compared against the shipped 7.88.1 library
in Debian)
