The `post-build-hook` text currently appears in the index, but not on the actual title line of the section, this follows the pattern used in a previous section to get a reference into a title.

Remove superfluous IAM action for S3 cache
...
`s3:ListObjects` isn't a real IAM action, but _is_ the name of an S3 API method. `s3:ListBucket` is the relevant action for that method.

With the merge of #2582 , the syntax "tags/1.9" for refs does not work
anymore.
However, the new syntax "refs/tags/1.9" seems to support annotated tags,
such as "refs/tags/2.0".
Closes #2385 .

Make curl's low speed limit configurable via stalled-download-timeout.
Before, this limit was five minutes without receiving a single byte.
This is much too long as if the remote end may not have even
acknowledged the HTTP request.
