http: respect protocol.*.allow=user for http-alternates
The http-walker may fetch the http-alternates (or
alternates) file from a remote in order to find more
objects. This should count as a "not from the user" use of
the protocol. But because we implement the redirection
ourselves and feed the new URL to curl, it will use the
CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS rules, not the more restrictive
CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS.
The ideal solution would be for each curl request we make to
know whether or not is directly from the user or part of an
alternates redirect, and then set CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS as
appropriate. However, that would require plumbing that
information through all of the various layers of the http
code.
Instead, let's check the protocol at the source: when we are
parsing the remote http-alternates file. The only downside
is that if there's any mismatch between what protocol we
think it is versus what curl thinks it is, it could violate
the policy.
To address this, we'll make the parsing err on the picky
side, and only allow protocols that it can parse
definitively. So for example, you can't elude the "http"
policy by asking for "HTTP://", even though curl might
handle it; we would reject it as unknown. The only unsafe
case would be if you have a URL that starts with "http://"
but curl interprets as another protocol. That seems like an
unlikely failure mode (and we are still protected by our
base CURLOPT_PROTOCOL setting, so the worst you could do is
trigger one of https, ftp, or ftps).
