We use `stdint.h` unconditionally in all places except one. All of these uses are imposed by dependencies / features. nghttp2, quic, wolfSSL and `HAVE_MACH_ABSOLUTE_TIME` do require this C99 header. It means that any of these features make curl require a C99 compiler. (In case of MSVC, this means Visual Studio 2010 minimum.) This patch changes the only use of `stdint.h` guarded by `HAVE_STDINT_H` to prioritize `inttypes.h` and fall back to `stdint.h` if not present. C99 types are required by wolfSSL headers, so one of the must be available. Closes #xxxxx
autotools checks for `stdint.h` somewhere implicitly.

We use
stdint.hunconditionally in all places except one. These usesare imposed by external dependencies / features. nghttp2, quic, wolfSSL
and
HAVE_MACH_ABSOLUTE_TIMEdo require this C99 header. It means thatany of these features make curl require a C99 compiler. (In case of
MSVC, this means Visual Studio 2010 or newer.)
This patch changes the single use of
stdint.hguarded byHAVE_STDINT_Hto usestdint.hunconditionally. Also stop usinginttypes.has an alternative there.HAVE_INTTYPES_Hwasn't usedanywhere else, allowing to delete this feature check as well.
Closes #12275
