Most of these should be unable to fail, since adding a timeout
generally always works. Still, it's better not to try to be "too
smart for our own good here."
There are some remaining event_add() calls that I didn't add checks
for; I've marked those with "XXXX" comments.
In many places throughout the code, we called _bufferevent_run_eventcb
without checking whether the eventcb was actually set. This would
work fine when the bufferevent's callbacks were deferred, but
otherwise the code would segfault. Strangely, we always remembered to
check before calling the _bufferevent_run_{read,write}cb functions.
To prevent similar errors in the future, all of
_buferevent_run_{read,write,event}cb now check to make sure the
callback is actually set before invoking or deferring the callback.
This patch also removes the now-redundant checks for {read,write}cb.
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.

Rationale: we hold a lock on the bufferevent when its callbacks are
executing, so we need to release the lock afterwards. But the
callback might free the bufferevent, so unless we're holding a
reference on the bufferevent, the lock might not be there for us to
release.

Paired and asynchronous bufferevents didn't do timeouts, and filtering
bufferevents gave them funny semantics. Now they all should all work
in a way consistent with what socket bufferevents do now: a [read/write]
timeout triggers if [reading/writing] is enabled, and if the timeout is
set, and the right amount of time passes without any data getting
[added to the input buffer/drained from the output buffer].

OpenSSL uses something like this to implement get/set access for
properties on its BIOs, so that it doesn't need to add a pair of
get/set functions to the vtable struct for every new abstract property
it provides an accessor for.
Doing this lets us make bufferevent_setfd abstract, and implement an
abstract bufferevent_getfd.

This is a bit of an interface doozy, but it's really needed in order
to be able to document this stuff without apologizing it. This patch
does the following renamings:
evbuffercb -> bufferevent_data_cb
everrorcb -> bufferevent_event_cb
EVBUFFER_(READ,WRITE,...) -> BEV_EVENT_(...)
EVBUFFER_(INPUT,OUTPUT) -> bufferevent_get_(input,output)
All the old names are available in event2/bufferevent_compat.h

This way we don't expose more of a bufferevent than we need to. One
motivation is to make it easier to automatically get deferred callbacks
with a bufferevent without exposing the deferred_cb structure.

The new bufferevent_pair abstraction works like a set of buferevent_sockets
connected by a socketpair, except that it doesn't require a socketpair,
and therefore doesn't need to get the kernel involved.
It's also a good way to make sure that deferred callbacks work. It's a good
use case for deferred callbacks: before I implemented them, the recursive
relationship between the evbuffer callback and the read callback would
make the unit tests overflow the stack.
