Christopher Davis reported:
Connection failures aren't reported on Windows when
using bufferevent_socket_connect, because Windows uses
select's exceptfds to notify of failure, and libevent
treats them like read events. Only the write event
handler is currently used to handle connection events.
We should think hard about this one, since it changes
behavior from 1.4.x. Anything that worked on Mac/Unix before
will work more consistently on Windows now... but this might
break stuff that worked only on Windows, but nowhere else.
Patch from Chris Davis.

This is harder than it sounds, since we need to make sure to
release the lock around the key call to the kernel (e.g.,
select, epoll_wait, kevent), AND we need to make sure that
none of the fields that are used in that call are touched by
anything that might be running concurrently in another
thread. I managed to do this pretty well for everything but
poll(). With poll, I needed to introduce a copy of the
event_set structure.
This patch also fixes a bug in win32.c where we called
realloc() instead of mm_realloc().

Basically, we suppress the notification when an event is added or deleted
and:
- The event has no fd, or there is no change in whether we are
reading/writing on the event's fd.
- The event has no timeout, or adding the event did not make the earliest
timeout become earlier.
This should be a big efficiency win in applications with multiple threads and
lots of timeouts.

We do this by not allocating the maximum epoll_event array for the epoll
backend at startup. Instead, we start out accepting 32 events at a time, and
double the array's size when it seems that the OS is generating events faster
than we're requesting them. This saves up to 374K per epoll-based
event_base. Resolves bug 2839240.

Previously, if we had a socket bufferevent in connect state, we'd send
both of these to indicate that the connection was done. That was broken
since the point of adding BEV_EVENT_CONNECTED was so that we could
distinguish "we're connected" and "we wrote something".
Now, writecb is called only when
A) the connection finished but the user never put the socket into a
"connecting" state, or
B) data was actually written.

Declare the previously private struct evhttp_bound_socket in
event2/http.h as an opaque struct.
Implement evhttp_bound_socket_get_fd, which returns the file descriptor
of an evhttp_bound_socket.

This can be handy when you have one search to find the end of a header
section, and then you want to find a substring within the header
section without looking at the body.
