Make curl display transfer progress as a simple progress bar instead of the
standard, more informational, meter.

This progress bar draws a single line of '#' characters across the screen and
shows a percentage if the transfer size is known. For transfers without a
known size, there is a space ship (-=o=-) that moves back and forth but only
while data is being transferred, with a set of flying hash sign symbols on
top.
