pipes and endpoints: support for inline allocations of transport data
This is a new transport API, which should make it easier for transports to rely upon lifetime guarantees made by the common SP framework, thus eliminating the need for transport specific reference counters, reap lists, and similar. The transport declares the size of the object in the ops vector (for pipe, dialer, or listener), and the framework supplies one allocated using the associated allocator. For now these add the pipe object to the socket and endpoint using linked linked lists. The plan is to transition those to reference counts which should be lighter weight and free form locking issues. The pipe teardown has been moved more fully to the reaper, to avoid some of the deadlocks that can occur as nni_pipe_close can be called from almost any context. For now the old API is retained as well, but the intention is to convert all the transports and then remove it.
