This is a NOP for existing usecases.
At the moment the only implemented transport for serialized SS is wsi, it's
typically used with Unix Domain Sockets, but it also works over tcp the
same.
It generalizes the interface between serialized chunks and the
transport, separately for client and proxy. The wsi transport is migrated
to use the new transport ops structs.
It will then be possible to "bring your own transport", so long as it is
reliable, and in-order, both for proxy and client / sspc.
We also adapt minimal-secure-streams-binance to build the -client variant
via SS proxy as well.
LWS_ONLY_SSPC is added so libwebsockets can be produced with just sspc
client support even for tiny targets.
A new embedded minimal example for rpi pico is also provided that
demonstrates using Serialized SS over a UART to an SS proxy, to implement
the SS Binance example on the pico, even though it has no networking itself.
Event lib support as it has been isn't scaling well, at the low level
libevent and libev headers have a namespace conflict so they can't
both be built into the same image, and at the distro level, binding
all the event libs to libwebsockets.so makes a bloaty situation for
packaging, lws will drag in all the event libs every time.
This patch implements the plan discussed here
https://github.com/warmcat/libwebsockets/issues/1980
and refactors the event lib support so they are built into isolated
plugins and bound at runtime according to what the application says
it wants to use. The event lib plugins can be packaged individually
so that only the needed sets of support are installed (perhaps none
of them if the user code is OK with the default poll() loop). And
dependent user code can mark the specific event loop plugin package
as required so pieces are added as needed.
The eventlib-foreign example is also refactored to build the selected
lib support isolated.
A readme is added detailing the changes and how to use them.

Establish a new distributed CMake architecture with CMake code related to
a source directory moving to be in the subdir in its own CMakeLists.txt.
In particular, there's now one in ./lib which calls through to ones
further down the directory tree like ./lib/plat/xxx, ./lib/roles/xxx etc.
This cuts the main CMakelists.txt from 98KB -> 33KB, about a 66% reduction,
and it's much easier to maintain sub-CMakeLists.txt that are in the same
directory as the sources they manage, and conceal all the details that that
level.
Child CMakelists.txt become responsible for:
- include_directories() definition (this is not supported by CMake
directly, it passes it back up via PARENT_SCOPE vars in helper
macros)
- Addition child CMakeLists.txt inclusion, for example toplevel ->
role -> role subdir
- Source file addition to the build
- Dependent library path resolution... this is now a private thing
in the child CMakeLists.txt, it just passes back any adaptations
to include_directories() and the LIB_LIST without filling the
parent namespace with the details
