`get_active_slot()` makes sure that the reused cURL handles it gives out are as good as fresh ones, by resetting all options that other code might have set on them back to defaults.
But this does not apply to `CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE_LARGE` yet, which can stay set from a previous request. For example, an earlier probe request with just a flush packet "0000" leaves it set to 4.
The problem seems harmless in practice, but it can be confusing to see a negative amount of remaining bytes to upload when inspecting libcurl internals while debugging networking-related issues, for example.
So reset also this option to its default value (which is -1, not 0).
