Instructs curl to use HTTP/3 to the host in the URL, with no fallback to
earlier HTTP versions. HTTP/3 can only be used for HTTPS and not for HTTP
URLs. For HTTP, this option will trigger an error.

This option allows a user to avoid using the Alt-Svc method of upgrading to
HTTP/3 when you know that the target speaks HTTP/3 on the given host and port.

This option will make curl fail if a QUIC connection cannot be established, it
will not attempt any other HTTP version on its own. Use --http3 for similar
functionality *with* a fallback.
