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#1108
The `flat_stream` is a stream wrapper designed to overcome a
performance limitation of the `boost::asio::ssl::stream`
implementation. Specifically, when writing buffer sequences having
length greater than one, the `ssl::stream` implementation does
not use scatter-gather I/O and instead performs a kernel transition
for every buffer in the sequence.
The wrapper addresses this problem by allocating memory and
presenting the buffer sequence into a single buffer, using
some logic to determine when this allocation is advantageous
versus simply passing the buffers through as-is.

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.
fix#941, fix#1016
`get_lowest_layer` is now a type alias for the
lowest layer instead of a struct with a nested type.
Actions required:
* Replace instances of `typename get_lowest_layer<T>::type`
with `get_lowest_layer<T>`.
fix#949
* New error codes are introduced for WebSocket failures
* More verbose messages for error codes
* Error codes are mapped to conditions for ease of testing
* error::failed and error::handshake_failed are deprecated (don't use)
Actions Required:
* Code which explicitly compares error_code values against the
constant `websocket::error::handshake_failed` should compare
against `websocket::condition::handshake_failed` instead.
* Code which explicitly compares error_code values against the
constant `websocket::error::failed` should compare
against `websocket::condition::protocol_violation` instead.
fix#849
This adds an additional `bool` template parameter to
`websocket::stream`:
* When deflateSupported is `true`, the stream will be capable
of negotiating the permessage-deflate websocket extension per
the configured run-time settings.
* When deflateSupported is `false`, the stream will never negotiate
the permessage-deflate websocket extension. Furthermore, all of the
code necessary for implementing the permessage-deflate extension
will be excluded from function instantiations. The resulting emitted
object code should be smaller.
fix#884
* BodyReader and BodyWriter constructors now require the header and
body elements to be passed as distinct header and value_type objects.
This enables the composition of body types, for example:
http::response<compressed_body<http::string_body>> res;
* The previous single-argument constructors are deprecated and will be
removed in a subsequent version.
Actions Required:
* Change user-defined instances of BodyReader or BodyWriter constructor
signatures to the two-argument form.
OR
* Define the macro BOOST_BEAST_ALLOW_DEPRECATED in the project (which
will accept both the new and the deprecated signatures).
Body::reader and Body::writer meanings are reversed, for
consistency with the names of the stream operations:
* Body::reader is used for read, read_some, async_read, async_read_some
* Body::writer is used for write, write_some, async_write, async_write_some
Actions Required:
* Swap the reader and writer names for user defined Body types
* Swap use of is_body_reader and is_body_writer
* Fields::writer replaces Fields::reader
* The FieldsWriter concept is renamed from FieldsReader
Actions Required:
* Rename reader to writer for user defined Fields
* The function has_content_length_impl is added to the
requirements of Fields.
Actions Required:
* Implement has_content_length_impl for user-defined Fields
fix#769
The following classes are removed:
* handler_type
* async_result
* async_completion
* is_dynamic_buffer
* is_const_buffer_sequence
* is_mutable_buffer_sequence
* handler_alloc
Actions Required:
* Use BOOST_ASIO_HANDLER_TYPE instead of handler_type
* Use BOOST_ASIO_INITFN_RESULT_TYPE instead of async_result
* Use boost::asio::async_completion
* Use boost::asio::is_dynamic_buffer
* Use boost::asio::is_const_buffer_sequence
* Use boost::asio::is_mutable_buffer_sequence
* boost::asio::associated_allocator_t replaces handler_alloc
fix#773
* buffer_cat is renamed to buffers_cat
* buffer_cat_view is renamed to buffers_cat_view
Actions Required:
* Use buffers_cat instead of buffer_cat
* Use buffers_cat_view instead of buffer_cat_view
