fix#404
Parsing and serialization interfaces have been fine tuned and unified.
For parsing these stream operations are defined:
* read
* read_header
* read_some
* async_read
* async_read_header
* async_read_some
For serialization these stream operations are defined:
* write
* write_header
* write_some
* async_write
* async_write_header
* async_write_some
fix#398
A new enum status is added for the status code.
The function obsolete_reason returns default reason phrasing.
If a response has an empty reason, the serializer will
automatically insert the default reason phrase for the
status code.
fix#397
method enum class is added to represent all known request methods.
Functions are provided to convert from strings to and from the method
enumeration.
The fields container is modified to also work with the enum.
serializer interface is changed to be buffer-only, no streams,
and placed in its own header file.
Operations on serializers are moved to free functions as part
of the HTTP write family of synchronous and asynchronous algorithms.
A new class `serializer` is introduced to permit incremental
serialization of HTTP messages. Existing free functions are
re-implemented in terms of this new class.
* The BodyReader concept is refined to support a greater variety
of strategies for providing buffers representing the body to
the serialization algorithms.
* Added buffer_body, a new model of Body which allows the caller
to provide a series of owned buffers using their own serialization
loop.
* Added empty_body, a model of Body which is for serialization only,
to represent HTTP messages with no content body.
* Removed overloads of write and async_write which send only
the HTTP header.
* Removed public interfaces for performing low-level chunk encoding.
The concept type traits are renamed for consistency,
and consolidated into a single header file <beast/core/type_traits.hpp>
A new section, Core Concepts, is added to the documentation describing all
of the core utility classes and functions. This also includes a complete
explanation and sample program describing how to write asynchronous initiation
functions and their associated composed operations.
This function converts integers to their decimal
representation as a static string.
In addition, static_string::resize no longer initializes
characters if the new size is larger.
