This changes the signature of nng_pipe_notify(), and the associated
events. The documentation is updated to reflect this.
We have also broken the lock up so that we don't hold the master
socket lock for some of these things, which may have beneficial
impact on performance.

* fixes #419 want to nni_aio_stop without blocking
This actually introduces an nni_aio_close() API that causes
nni_aio_begin to return NNG_ECLOSED, while scheduling a callback
on the AIO to do an NNG_ECLOSED as well. This should be called
in non-blocking close() contexts instead of nni_aio_stop(), and
the cases where we call nni_aio_fini() multiple times are updated
updated to add nni_aio_stop() calls on all "interlinked" aios before
finalizing them.
Furthermore, we call nni_aio_close() as soon as practical in the
close path. This closes an annoying race condition where the
callback from a lower subsystem could wind up rescheduling an
operation that we wanted to abort.

fixes #326 consider nni_taskq_exec_synch()
fixes #410 kqueue implementation could be smarter
fixes #411 epoll_implementation could be smarter
fixes #426 synchronous completion can lead to panic
fixes #421 pipe close race condition/duplicate destroy
This is a major refactoring of two significant parts of the code base,
which are closely interrelated.
First the aio and taskq framework have undergone a number of simplifications,
and improvements. We have ditched a few parts of the internal API (for
example tasks no longer support cancellation) that weren't terribly useful
but added a lot of complexity, and we've made aio_schedule something that
now checks for cancellation or other "premature" completions. The
aio framework now uses the tasks more tightly, so that aio wait can
devolve into just nni_task_wait(). We did have to add a "task_prep()"
step to prevent race conditions.
Second, the entire POSIX poller framework has been simplified, and made
more robust, and more scalable. There were some fairly inherent race
conditions around the shutdown/close code, where we *thought* we were
synchronizing against the other thread, but weren't doing so adequately.
With a cleaner design, we've been able to tighten up the implementation
to remove these race conditions, while substantially reducing the chance
for lock contention, thereby improving scalability. The illumos poller
also got a performance boost by polling for multiple events.
In highly "busy" systems, we expect to see vast reductions in lock
contention, and therefore greater scalability, in addition to overall
improved reliability.
One area where we currently can do better is that there is still only
a single poller thread run. Scaling this out is a task that has to be done
differently for each poller, and carefuly to ensure that close conditions
are safe on all pollers, and that no chance for deadlock/livelock waiting
for pfd finalizers can occur.

fixes #360 core should nng_aio_begin before nng_aio_finish_error
fixes #361 nng_send_aio should check for NULL message
fixes #362 nni_msgq does not signal pollable on certain events
This adds support for contexts for both sides of the surveyor pattern.
Prior to this commit, the raw mode was completely broken, and there
were numerous other bugs found and fixed. This integration includes
*much* deeper validation of this pattern.
Some changes to the core and other patterns have been made, where it
was obvioius that we could make such improvements. (The obviousness
stemming from the fact that RESPONDENT in particular is very closely
derived from REP.)

This closes a fundamental flaw in the way aio structures were
handled. In paticular, aio expiration could race ahead, and
fire before the aio was properly registered by the provider.
This ultimately led to the possibility of duplicate completions
on the same aio.
The solution involved breaking up nni_aio_start into two functions.
nni_aio_begin (which can be run outside of external locks) simply
validates that nni_aio_fini() has not been called, and clears certain
fields in the aio to make it ready for use by the provider.
nni_aio_schedule does the work to register the aio with the expiration
thread, and should only be called when the aio is actually scheduled
for asynchronous completion. nni_aio_schedule_verify does the same thing,
but returns NNG_ETIMEDOUT if the aio has a zero length timeout.
This change has a small negative performance impact. We have plans to
rectify that by converting nni_aio_begin to use a locklesss flag for
the aio->a_fini bit.
While we were here, we fixed some error paths in the POSIX subsystem,
which would have returned incorrect error codes, and we made some
optmizations in the message queues to reduce conditionals while holding
locks in the hot code path.

While here I've added some code that should help us backtrack on
a crash, by linking back to the pipe from the context when we
are queued on that pipes sendq.
I'm not sure if we've ever seen these or not, but it could explain
certain infrequent crashes we think we've seen.

This provides context support for REQ and REP sockets.
More discussion around this is in the issue itself.
Optionally we would like to extend this to the surveyor pattern.
Note that we specifically do not support pollable descriptors
for non-default contexts, and the results of using file descriptors
for polling (NNG_OPT_SENDFD and NNG_OPT_RECVFD) is undefined.
In the future, it might be nice to figure out how to factor in
optional use of a message queue for users who want more buffering,
but we think there is little need for this with cooked mode.

This makes the raw mode something that is immutable, determined
at socket construction. This is an enabling change for the
separate context support coming soon.
As a result, this is an API breaking change for users of the raw
mode option (NNG_OPT_RAW). There aren't many of them out there.
Cooked mode is entirely unaffected.
There are changes to tests and documentation included.

fixes #302 nng_dialer/listener/pipe_getopt_sockaddr desired
This adds plumbing to pass and check the type of options
all the way through.
NNG_ZT_OPT_ORBIT is type UINT64, but you can use the untyped form to
pass two of them if needed.
No typed access for retrieving strings yet. I think this should allocate
a pointer and copy that out, but that's for later.

fixes #275 nng_pipe_getopt_ptr() missing?
fixes #285 nng_setopt_ptr MIS
fixes #297 nng_listener/dialer_close does not validate mode
This change adds some missing APIs, and changes others.
In particular, certain options are now of type bool, with size
of just one. This is a *breaking* change for code that uses those
options -- NNG_OPT_RAW, NNG_OPT_PAIR1_POLY, NNG_OPT_TLS_VERIFIED.

This introduces enough of the HTTP API to support fully server
applications, including creation of websocket style protocols,
pluggable handlers, and so forth.
We have also introduced scatter/gather I/O (rudimentary) for
aios, and made other enhancements to the AIO framework. The
internals of the AIOs themselves are now fully private, and we
have eliminated the aio->a_addr member, with plans to remove the
pipe and possibly message members as well.
A few other minor issues were found and fixed as well.
The HTTP API includes request, response, and connection objects,
which can be used with both servers and clients. It also defines
the HTTP server and handler objects, which support server applications.
Support for client applications will require a client object to be
exposed, and that should be happening shortly.
None of this is "documented" yet, bug again, we will follow up shortly.

This makes all the protocols and transports optional. All
of them except ZeroTier are enabled by default, but you can
now disable them (remove from the build) with cmake options.
The test suite is modified so that tests still run as much
as they can, but skip over things caused by missing functionality
from the library (due to configuration).
Further, the constant definitions and prototypes for functions
that are specific to transports or protocols are moved into
appropriate headers, which should be included directly by
applications wishing to use these.
We have also added and improved documentation -- all of the
transports are documented, and several more man pages for
protocols have been added. (Req/Rep and Surveyor are still
missing.)
