Connections must hold an ah for the whole time they are
processing one header set, even if eg, the headers are
fragmented and it involves network roundtrip times.
However on http1.1 / keepalive, it must drop the ah when
there are no more header sets to deal with, and reacquire
the ah later when more data appears. It's because the
time between header sets / http1.1 requests is unbounded
and the ah would be tied up forever.
But in the case that we got pipelined http1.1 requests,
even partial already buffered, we must keep the ah,
resetting it instead of dropping it. Because we store
the rx data conveniently in a per-tsi buffer since it only
does one thing at a time per thread, we cannot go back to
the event loop to await a new ah inside one service action.
But no problem since we definitely already have an ah,
let's just reuse it at http completion time if more rx is
already buffered.
NB: attack.sh makes request with echo | nc, this
accidentally sends a trailing '\n' from the echo showing
this problem. With this patch attack.sh can complete well.

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

We only supported those specific control packet payloads up to 124.
125 is the correct limit.
Lws was consistent about the wrong limit so there are no other
issues. It doesn't affect user ABI correcting it either.

- 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)

Extend the cleanout caused by wsi having a context pointer
into the public api.
There's no point keeping the 1.5 compatibility work,
we have changed the api in several places and
rebuilt wasn't going to be enough a while ago.

This makes the URI argument processing split each parameter into
a "fragment". Processing header content as fragments already exists
in lws, because it's legal to deliver header content by repeating
the header.
Now there's an api to access individual fragments, also add the
code to the test server to print each URI argument separately.
Adapt attack.sh to parse the fragments.

This adds a public API variant of the header copy api that lets you
choose which fragment you want copied.
Normally you want the existing one that aggregates the fragments.
But it can be useful to get each part in turn (that corresponds to
the content provided by each duplicated header normally).

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.

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.
