curl_global_init: accept the CURL_GLOBAL_ACK_EINTR flag

The flag can be used in pycurl-based applications where using the multi
interface would not be acceptable because of the performance lost caused
by implementing the select() loop in python.

 A sensible default. It will init both SSL and Win32. Right now, this equals
 the functionality of the \fBCURL_GLOBAL_ALL\fP mask.

+.B CURL_GLOBAL_ACK_EINTR
+When this flag is set, curl will acknowledge EINTR condition when connecting
+or when waiting for data.  Otherwise, curl waits until full timeout elapses.
 .SH RETURN VALUE
 If this function returns non-zero, something went wrong and you cannot use the
 other curl functions.
