support smbv2/3 and/or update documentation

[tbugfinder]

I did this

Upload file from Linux to Windows share using curl.

I expected the following

Authentication applied successfully and file copied.

Apart from an issue there isn't proper documentation included (or I least I didn't notice it) that curl only supports smbv1. It would be very convenient if it would support SMBv2/3 as those are the protocols used.

curl/libcurl version

[curl -V output]
7.70

operating system

Linux

It is mentioned in the docs already. The question is where did you expect to find this detail where you didn't see it this time?

(We don't keep feature-request issues open in this tracker, as we reserve that for bugs and problems.)

Usually I start off reading man pages.
There I didn't came across the limit.

The CURLOPT_URL documentation/man page includes this information: https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_URL.html

I read this one
https://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html

And where in that page did you expect to find this information? Ie where would you say it would make sense to have it added?

like right at the top, indeed.
