Allow to build with the PyPI package "clang" instead of "libclang". 1. It seems to be maintained. 2. In the FreeBSD base system there is no pre-built libclang.so. If you need this library you have to install llvm from ports additionally. 2. On FreeBSD there is no pre-built wheel "libclang" with a packaged libclang.so.

Long: ignore-content-length
Help: Ignore the size of the remote resource
Protocols: FTP HTTP
---
For HTTP, Ignore the Content-Length header. This is particularly useful for
servers running Apache 1.x, which will report incorrect Content-Length for
files larger than 2 gigabytes.

For FTP (since 7.46.0), skip the RETR command to figure out the size before
downloading a file.
