/vsicurl/ prefix is being added to all resources matching /^(http|ftp)/

There are several cases where /vsicurl/ can not be used and /vsicurl_streaming/ should be used instead. In my use case, I'm downloading WFS requests failing with /vsicurl/.

Users can add this prefix by themselves, if they want to. I don't think this should be added by the lib, behind the scenes.

Any comments against removing this from the library? I would like to discuss it before any PR.

Would it make sense to use /vsicurl_sreaming/ instead of /vsicurl/ ? Reason being is the API is more accessible if we don't require a user to know to append that to their FTP and HTTP endpoints. Or perhaps we allow an override for advanced uses?
