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

In the case we have a lot of connections, checking them all for timeout state
once a second becomes burdensome. At the moment if you have 100K connections,
once a second they all get checked for timeout in a loop.
This patch adds a doubly-linked list based in the context to each wsi, and
only wsi with pending timeouts appear on it. At checking time, we traverse
the list, which costs nothing if empty because nobody has a pending timeout.
Similarly adding and removing from the list costs almost nothing since no
iteration is required no matter how big the list.
The extra 8 or 16 bytes in the wsi are offset a little bit by demoting .pps
from int to char (save 3 bytes). And trim max act exts to 2, since we only
provide one, saving 8 /16 bytes by itself if exts enabled.

Sort the list of source files before passing them to the kernel-doc
script so that it always outputs the discovered functions and
structures in the same order.
This is the initial push of a fuzzing proxy we will use for testing lws.
Run libwebsockets-test-fuzxy and the test server if it's local.
Then run the test client with
http_proxy=localhost:8880 libwebsockets-test-client localhost (or whatever)
Right now he only fuzzes one thing but he is operational as a proxy.
This adds redirect support to the client side. Lws will follow
server redirects (301) up to three deep.

In most cases the close api will see it should send the CCE because
we are still in the waiting server reply state until the end of the
interpretation. Only if we completed the interpretation and moved
on to ESTABLISHED do we need to handle sending it ourselves.

Since we introduced partial buffering a long while ago,
user code shold never see partial sends and very few
user callbsck attempt to deal with them.
Let's just eliminate the whole concept of user callback
partial send handling under any circumstances.

Remove declarations of callback and extension_callback as these are
functions declared in header but not defined anywhere.
Also rename typedefs callback_function and extension_callback_function
to lws_callback_function and lws_extension_callback_function so all
symbolx exported by header have lws prefix;

Considering we go through it once per incoming char, the tests to see if we
should be checking utf-8 are too expensive... move them to a bit that lives
in the wsi and set them once per frame (except for CLOSE who has to update
after the close code has been skipped).
