e8be3fd7d3 New HTTP interfaces (API Change):
fix #123
fix #154
fix #265

This completely replaces the HTTP parser used to read and
parse incoming messages. The new version is faster than
the old one, and written in fewer lines. A summary of
changes:

* parse and async_parse renamed to read and async_read

* basic_parser is optimized for linear buffers,
  use flat_streambuf for the best performance with these
  functions:

  - http::read
  - http::read_some
  - http::async_read
  - http::async_read_some

* The overloads of read() and async_read() which take
  just a header have been removed, since they would
  throw away important parse metadata.

* The derived class callbacks for basic_parser have
  been streamlined. All strings passed to callbacks
  are presented in their entirety, instead of being
  provided in pieces.

These changes allow use-cases that were previously
difficult or impossible, such as:

- Efficient relaying

- Late body type commitment

- Expect: 100-continue handling

c309f53ed2 Distinguish HTTP/1 messages from general HTTP messages:
The version field is moved into message_v1, all public interfaces
are reworked to identify HTTP/1 wire format operations (suffix "_v1")
versus general HTTP.

a0b04bdff2 Refactor beast core, http, tests, and examples:
* Fix warnings
* Port cmake scripts to linux
* Add command line options for running test suites
* Add examples to CMakeLists
* Return std::uint64_t from writer::content_length
* basic_parser::write takes asio::const_buffer instead of pointer and size
* Turn message test back on now that it passes
* Rename to http::headers, use std::allocator, remove http_headers
* http::message::method is now a string
* Refactor to_string for ConstBufferSequence
* Remove chunk_encode from the public interface
* Initialize members for default constructed iterators
* Disallow default construction for dependent buffer sequences

Refactor http::message serialization:

* Serialization no longer creates a copy of the
  headers and modifies them
* New function prepare(), sets Connection, Transfer-Encoding,
  Content-Length based on the body attributes and caller options.
  Callers can use prepare() to have the fields set automatically,
  or they can set the fields manually.
* Use write for operator<<
* Tests for serialization
