CURLOPT_FTPSSLAUTH - set order in which to attempt TLS vs SSL when using FTP

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FTPSSLAUTH, long order);

Pass a long using one of the values from below, to alter how libcurl issues "AUTH TLS" or "AUTH SSL" when FTP over SSL is activated. This is only interesting if CURLOPT_USE_SSL(3) is also set.

Possible order values:

Allow libcurl to decide.
Try "AUTH SSL" first, and only if that fails try "AUTH TLS".
Try "AUTH TLS" first, and only if that fails try "AUTH SSL".

/* funny server, ask for SSL before TLS */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FTPSSLAUTH, CURLFTPAUTH_SSL);
ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl); }
