Headers related to ws or h2 are now elided if the ws or h2 role
is not enabled for build. In addition, a new build-time option
LWS_WITH_HTTP_UNCOMMON_HEADERS on by default allows removal of
less-common http headers to shrink the parser footprint.
Minilex is adapted to produce 8 different versions of the lex
table, chosen at build-time according to which headers are
included in the build.
If you don't need the unusual headers, or aren't using h2 or ws,
this chops down the size of the ah and the rodata needed to hold
the parsing table from 87 strings / pointers to 49, and the
parsing table from 1177 to 696 bytes.
Add selectable event lib support to minimal-http-client-multi and
clean up context destroy flow so we can use lws_destroy_context() from
inside the callback to indicate we want to end the event loop, without
using the traditional "interrupted" flag and in a way that works no
matter which event loop backend is being used.
Pre-sul, checking for interval to next pending scheduled event was expensive and
iterative, so the service avoided it if the wait was already 0.
With sul though, the internal "check" function also services ripe events and
removes them, and finding the interval to the next one is really cheap.
Rename the "check" function to __lws_sul_service_ripe() to make it clear it's
not just about returning the interval to the next pending one. And call it
regardless of if we already decided we are not going to wait in the poll.

As it is, if time_t is 32-bit on the platform it might lead to
arithmetic overflow, so force it to lws_usec_t (uint64_t) even
though it works OK here on x86_64.
Add a minimal example aimed at testing the wsi hrtimer stability
consistently across platforms.
Add and disable by default hrtimer dump code (this is too expensive
and specific to internal testing to leave in for debug mode even if
it's not printed). If you hack it enabled, it will dump the sul
list for the pt and assert if the list is disordered.
There's no longer any reason to come out of sleep for periodic service
which has been eliminated by lws_sul.
With event libs, there is no opportunity to do it anyway since their
event loop is atomic and makes callbacks and sleeps until it is stopped.
But some users are relying on the old poll() service loop as
glue that's difficult to replace. So for now help that happen by
accepting the timeout_ms of -1 as meaning sample poll and service
what's there without any wait.
Remove LWS_LATENCY.
Add the option LWS_WITH_DETAILED_LATENCY, allowing lws to collect very detailed
information on every read and write, and allow the user code to provide
a callback to process events.
wsi timeout, wsi hrtimer, sequencer timeout and vh-protocol timer
all now participate on a single sorted us list.
The whole idea of polling wakes is thrown out, poll waits ignore the
timeout field and always use infinite timeouts.
Introduce a public api that can schedule its own callback from the event
loop with us resolution (usually ms is all the platform can do).
Upgrade timeouts and sequencer timeouts to also be able to use us resolution.
Introduce a prepared fakewsi in the pt, so we don't have to allocate
one on the heap when we need it.
Directly handle vh-protocol timer if LWS_MAX_SMP == 1
There are quite a few linked-lists of things that want events after
some period. This introduces a type binding an lws_dll2 for the
list and a lws_usec_t for the duration.
The wsi timeouts, the hrtimer and the sequencer timeouts are converted
to use these, also in the common event wait calculation.
Adapt service loops and event libs to use microsecond waits
internally, for hrtimer and sequencer. Reduce granularity
according to platform / event lib wait.
Add a helper so there's a single place to extend it.
1) This moves the service tid detection stuff from context to pt.
2) If LWS_MAX_SMP > 1, a default pthread tid detection callback is provided
on the dummy callback. Callback handlers that call through to the dummy
handler will inherit this. It provides an int truncation of the pthread
tid.
3) If there has been any service calls on the service threads, the pts now
know the low sizeof(int) bytes of their tid. When you ask for a client
connection to be created, it looks through the pts to see if the calling
thread is a pt service thread. If so, the new client is set to use the
same pt as the caller.
