1. http: do not require a user name when using CURLAUTH_NEGOTIATE …

   In order to get Negotiate (SPNEGO) authentication to work in HTTP you
   used to be required to provide a (fake) user name (this concerned both
   curl and the lib) because the code wrongly only considered
   authentication if there was a user name provided, as in:
   
     curl -u : --negotiate https://example.com/
   
   This commit leverages the `struct auth` want member to figure out if the
   user enabled CURLAUTH_NEGOTIATE, effectively removing the requirement of
   setting a user name both in curl and the lib.
