It would be easier to just read docs/CURL-DISABLE.md! =)

Well, 90kb is maybe not up-to-date and will depend on a lot of details and
specifics (like OS and CPU architecture). I built a miminal libcurl on a Linux
x86-64 at 139K not too long ago.

I don't know much about MSVC, but when building on Linux there's a good chunk
of extra footprint shrinkage to gain by using the right linker options. I
would imagine it being similar on Windows.
