* is_completion_handler is deprecated
* type_traits.hpp is a deprecated include
These items will be removed in the next version
* Include the new header file for the types needed:
- stream_traits.hpp
- file_base.hpp
* Use std::is_invocable instead of is_completion_handler
fix#1416
* Calls to buffer_copy are qualified as net::buffer_copy
* Calls to buffer_size are made unqualified, permitting
argument dependent lookup to take effect.
The nested function lowest_layer and nested type lowest_layer_type
are removed from all stream layers.
Actions Required:
* Remove lowest_layer and lowest_layer_type from user-defined streams.
* Use the get_lowest_layer free function and the lowest_layer_type trait
as needed.
This I/O object wraps an ordinary socket and provides a built-in
timeout and optional bandwidth rate-limiting facility.
Added class template basic_stream_socket
* Meets the requirements of AsyncReadStream and AsyncWriteStream
* Partially supports P1322R0:
"Networking TS enhancement to enable custom I/O executors"
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2018/p1322r0.html
A strand or other io_context-compatible executor may be
chosen to use for all asynchronous stream operations.
* Supports independent timeouts on logical operations:
connect, read, write, or both read and write.
* Provides an option for a configurable rate limit
limit on the maximum rates of reading or writing.
* The previous experimental implementation,
`timeout_socket` and related types, is removed.
* stream_socket is an alias for basic_stream_socket which
uses `net::ip::tcp` as its protocol.
* Tidy up and comment asserts
* `pausation` is renamed to saved_handler
* A work guard on the handler's associated executor
is maintained for the lifetime of the store handler.
* Revise documentation
* Specify exception safety
* Mark more functions noexcept
API Changes:
* flat_static_buffer::reset is deprecated
Actions Required:
* Replace calls to flat_static_buffer::reset with
flat_static_buffer::clear
fix#1305
Applies to:
flat_buffer
flat_static_buffer
multi_buffer
static_buffer
Changes:
* Revised all javadocs
* Move construction does not invalidate in some cases
* non-const data() returns a mutable buffer sequence
* Add cdata() to also return constant readable bytes
* Eligible member functions are declared noexcept
fix#1279, close#1319
This enables users to improve compilation performance by explicitly
instantiating the stream template in another TU.

async initiating functions must return init.result.get(). Returning the
result of post caused a compilation failure for custom completion tokens.

fix#1245, fix#1249
The value used to fill the incomplete code point buffer is
changed to a character which no longer causes
utf8_checker::valid() to incorrectly return false.
This resolves a medium vulnerability described in the
Beast Hybrid Assessment Report by Bishop Fox, where masks generated
for use with outgoing WebSocket client frames use an insufficient
source of entropy and a non-cryptographically secure pseudo-random
number generator.
By default, all newly constructed WebSocket streams will use a
uniquely seeded secure PRNG (ChaCha20 in counter mode). As this may
result in increased CPU resource consumption, the function
websocket::stream::secure_prng() may be used to select a faster but
less secure PRNG, for the case where the caller knows that the secure
generator is not necessary.
On some systems, std::random_device may produce insufficient entropy
to securely seed the PRNG. As this condition cannot be detected by
Beast, callers may use the function websocket::seed_prng() called
once at startup to provide at least 256 bits of entropy which will
be used to uniquely seed all subsequent PRNGs.
fix#1076
As per Asio and Networking TS requirements, composed operations must
maintain an object of type executor_work_guard for the executor associated
with the I/O object, for the lifetime of the asynchronous operation.
This is in addition to the requirement for maintaining an object of type
executor_work_guard for the executor associated with the handler.
