* Revise stream algorithm javadocs
* HTTP stream algorithms now use beast::read and
beast::async_read with a custom completion condition.
API Changes:
* HTTP stream algorithms return the number of bytes transferred
from the stream. Previously, they returned the number of bytes
consumed by the parser.
Actions Required:
* Callers depending on the return value of http::read or
http::async_read overloads should adjust the usage of
the returned value as needed.
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.

fix#1290
* BOOST_ASIO_NO_DEPRECATED=1 is now set
* Fix various warnings from the Boost regression test matrix
* Fix a bug in advanced servers when checking for a timeout
Provides a subset of std::tuple functionality, for internal use
to reduce the resources required during compilation.
Does not support reference-like semantics on assignment.

This works similarly to bind_handler, and can help with reducing
template instantiations and compiler memory usage (since it does
not need to support placeholders).
A specialization for the most common case `void(error_code, size_t)`
is provided to minimize instantiation cost.
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#1113
This solves a problem where the message-oriented synchronous
HTTP write algorithms do not support messages whose body
writer requires a non-const reference to the message in
order to construct.
In addition, the message-oriented async_write algorithm is
modified to support messages passed by const reference when
possible, based on the body writer attributes.
The ssl_stream wrapper provides C++11 move semantics for ssl::stream,
as well as incorporating the flat_stream workaround for a performance
problem with ssl::stream writes and buffer sequences having length
greater than one.
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.
