I get that this is c-code and just the c-way of doing things. Still, it can
be simplified a lot, even in c.
I propose a new URL API function with the following signature:
CURLUcode curl_url_set_o(CURLU *u, CURLUPart what,
const CURLU *source, unsigned int flags)
Assuming you write a lot of code that cherry-picks components from one URL and
copies them into another, then this looks likes a shortcut yes. But it also
looks like a kind of function you can easily implement yourself, using
libcurl's API, in about twenty lines of code or so.
I'm not firmly against introducing a function like this, but I think it is
rather specific for a single use case that might not be what most URL API
users ever need.
