curl requires `stdint.h` from C99, and no longer builds without it since v8.18.0 (after dropping VS2008 support). Assume it's available, drop feature checks. Also: - drop duplicate `stdint.h` includes. - introduce internal `HAVE_UINTPTR_T`, enabled by default. - OS400: disable `HAVE_UINTPTR_T`. - build: keep cmake pre-fill and `cmp-config.pl` exception because cmake and autotools both detect `stdint.h` implicitly.
