Context could be NULL only if context creation failed in the first
place and user error path is bad... no network connectivity at that
point...

This adds support for multithreaded service to lws without adding any
threading or locking code in the library.
At context creation time you can request split the service part of the
context into n service domains, which are load-balanced so that the most
idle one gets the next listen socket accept.
There's a single listen socket on one port still.
User code may then spawn n threads doing n service loops / poll()s
simultaneously. Locking is only required (I think) in the existing
FD lock callbacks already handled by the pthreads server example,
and that locking takes place in user code. So the library remains
completely agnostic about the threading / locking scheme.
And by default, it's completely compatible with one service thread
so no changes are required by people uninterested in multithreaded
service.
However for people interested in extremely lightweight mass http[s]/
ws[s] service with minimum provisioning, the library can now do
everything out of the box.
To test it, just try
$ libwebsockets-test-server-pthreads -j 8
where -j controls the number of service threads

The info struct is too fragile against additions being able to keep soname.
Because if we add something, the library can't count on the user code being
built against latest headers with largest info struct size. Then the user
code may not have zeroed down enough of the struct and give us junk in the
new members.
Add a pool at the end of the info struct that exists so it will be zeroed
down even though no current use for those future members, then later
library versions can compatibly use them without breaking soname if it is
understood 0 means default.
Because keeping sizeof info straight if you add something is now a thing,
also add an lwsl_info letting you confirm it easily.
It's fine if the size of info differs on different platforms. But when
we add things to the struct we need to balance the padding using a scheme
like
short new_member;
unsigned char _padding1[sizeof(void *) - sizeof(short)];
which is immune to differences in platform differences in sizeof void *.

- Mainly symbol length reduction
- Whitespace clean
- Code refactor for linear flow
- Audit @Context for API docs vs changes

Since struct lws (wsi) now has his own context pointer,
we were able to remove the need for passing context
almost everywhere in the apis.
In turn, that means there's no real use for context being
passed to every callback; in the rare cases context is
needed user code can get it with lws_get_ctx(wsi)

Now we bit the bullet and gave each wsi an lws_context *, many
internal apis that take both a context and wsi parameter only
need the wsi.
Also simplify parser code by making a temp var for
allocated_headers * instead of the longwinded
dereference chain everywhere.

The user protocols struct has not been const until now.
This has been painful for a while because the semantics of the protocols
struct look like it's going to be treated as const.
At context creation, the protocols struct has been getting marked with the context,
and three apis exploited that to only need to be passed a pointer to a protocol to
get access to the context.
This patch removes the two writeable members in the context (these were never directly
used by user code), changes all pointers to protocols to be const, and adds an explicit
first argument to the three affected apis so they can have access to context.
The three affected apis are these
LWS_VISIBLE LWS_EXTERN int
-lws_callback_on_writable_all_protocol(const struct lws_protocols *protocol);
+lws_callback_on_writable_all_protocol(const struct lws_context *context,
+ const struct lws_protocols *protocol);
LWS_VISIBLE LWS_EXTERN int
-lws_callback_all_protocol(const struct lws_protocols *protocol, int reason);
+lws_callback_all_protocol(struct lws_context *context,
+ const struct lws_protocols *protocol, int reason);
LWS_VISIBLE LWS_EXTERN void
-lws_rx_flow_allow_all_protocol(const struct lws_protocols *protocol);
+lws_rx_flow_allow_all_protocol(const struct lws_context *context,
+ const struct lws_protocols *protocol);
unfortunately the original apis can no longer be emulated and users of them must update.

This nukes all the oldstyle prefixes except in the compatibility code.
struct libwebsockets becomes struct lws too.
The api docs are updated accordingly as are the READMEs that mention
those apis.

Between changing to lws_ a few years ago and the previous two
patches migrating the public apis, there are only a few
internal functions left using libwebsocket_*.
Change those to also use lws_ without regard to compatibility
since they were never visible outside the library.

Change all internal uses of rationalized public apis to reflect the
new names.
Theer are a few things that got changed as side effect of search/replace
matches, but these are almost all internal. I added a compatibility define
for the public enum that got renamed.
Theoretically existing code should not notice the difference from these
two patches. And new code will find the new names.

Simplifies proxy code to use the existing libwebsocket_set_proxy.
Enables libwebsocket_set_proxy() to parse username:password@ at front of
servername in both http_proxy and info->http_proxy_address.
If given the base64 version of the credentials are sent in the CONNECT
header to the proxy.
Port is now taken from info->http_proxy_address server:port syntax, but if
a port is given in the now deprecated info->http_proxy_port (ie, is nonzero)
then it is allowed to be missed out and the info port used instead for
backwards compatibility.

Improvemed patches to address travis and appveyor build errors
Reduced WINVER and _WIN32_WINNT to 0x0501 to be less restrictive
Refined CMakeLists.txt to allow for normal Windows and MinGW-specific OpenSSL certificate generation
Simplified include path to gettimeofday.h
Removed unnecessary list(APPEND LWS_LIBRARIES zlib_internal) export
Added back #include <windows.h> to gettimeofday.c to fix build for normal Windows
Made sure that pollfd gets defined on libwebsockets side when _WIN32_WINNT < 0x0600
Made sure that WINVER and _WIN32_WINNT don't get overridden by libwebsockets headers when already set to something greater than 0x0501
Added missing declaration of WSAPoll function for WINVER < 0x0600 in libwebsockets.h, eliminated invalid usages of pollfd instead of libwebsocket_pollfd in test-server.c
Cleaned up duplicate content in gettimeofday.c, removed header inclusions from gettimeofday.h and fixed include order in test-echo.c, test-ping.c and test-server.c to enable build with normal Windows and MinGW
Re-enabled debug_level in test-echo.c and made sure that the call to lws_set_log_level() is also active under Windows (just like in test-server.c); replaced all WIN32 occurrences by _WIN32 in test-echo.c, test-ping.c, and test-server.c
Removed build-msys.sh and added new section about how to build libwebsockets using MinGW to README.build.md
- Got rid of ifdef _WIN32 stuff adn moved to plat_ files instead.
- Also, check all calls to lws_zalloc, was potential failure on WIN32
- Made context destory enable to destroy a half inited context as well. This way I got get rid of some of the error handling complexity in libwebsocket_create_context
- Added TODOs for some potential problems I see where things might be leaking and such
Since we include lws_config.h in the public headers, at least our HAVE_ macros should be kind of unique, so that we don't get redefinitions when used with other libraries using config files as well.
At least some win32 uses an opaque pointer for fd that is not
an ordinal like it is in unix.
Resurrect the old hashtable management for that platform to use
instead, and introduce a helper to get the wsi from the fd "somehow".
