The fairness algorithms are not the best, not every bufferevent type
is supported, and some of the locking tricks here are simply absurd.
Still, this code should be a good first step.
OpenSSL has a per-thread error stack, and really doesn't like you
leaving errors on the stack. Rather than discard the errors or force
the user to handle them, this patch pulls them off the openssl stack
and puts them on a stack associated with the bufferevent_openssl. If
the user leaves them on the stack then, it won't affect any other
connections.
This bug was found by Roman Puls. Thanks!

This makes our interfaces usable from C++, which doesn't believe
you can say "bufferevent_socket_nase(base, -1,
BEV_OPT_CLOSE_ON_FREE|BEV_OPT_DEFER_CALLBACKS)" but which instead
would demand "static_cast<bufferevent_options>(BEV_OPT_CLOSE_ON_FREE|
BEV_OPT_DEFER_CALLBACKS))" for the last argument.
Diagnosis and patch from Chris Davis.

This code adds a new Bufferevent type that is only compiled when the
openssl library is present. It supports using an SSL object and an
event alert mechanism, which can either be an fd or an underlying
bufferevent.
There is still more work to do: the unit tests are incomplete, and we
need to support flush and shutdown much better. Sometimes events are
generated needlessly: this will hose performance.
There's a new encrypting proxy in sample/le-proxy.c.
This code has only been tested on OSX, and nowhere else.
