    axTLS: not considered fit for use
    
    URL: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2018-06/0000.html
    
    This is step one. It adds #error statements that require source edits to
    make curl build again if asked to use axTLS. At a later stage we might
    remove the axTLS specific code completely.
    
    Closes #2628

+#error axTLS support has been disabled in curl due to doubts about quaility,
