The old evhttp_decode_uri() function would act as tough it was doing
an (illegal, undefined) decode operation on a whole URL at once, and
treat + characters following a ? as different from + characters
preceding one. But that's not useful: If you are decoding a URI
before splitting off query parameters, you are begging to fail as soon
as somebody gives you a value with an encoded & in it.
The new evhttp_uridecode() function takes an argument that says
whether to decode + signs. Both uridecode and uriencode also now
support encoding or decoding to strings with internal 0-valued
characters.
We already detected certain malformed queries, but we responded by
aborting the query-parsing process half-way through without telling
the user. Now, if query-parsing fails, no headers are returned, and
evhttp_parse_query returns -1.
The EVUTIL_CLOSESOCKET() macro required you to include unistd.h in your
source for POSIX. We might as well turn it into a function: an extra
function call is going to be cheap in comparison with the system call.
We retain the EVUTIL_CLOSESOCKET() macro as an alias for the new
evutil_closesocket() function.

Remeber, win32 has a socket type that's actually a handle, so if
there's a chance that code is run on win32, we can't use "int" as the
socket type.
This isn't a blind search-and-replace: sometimes an fd is really in
fact for a file, and not a socket at all.
when sending chunked requests via multiple calls to evhttp_send_reply_chunk,
the client may close the connection before the server is done sending. this
used to cause a crash.
we introduce a new function evhttp_request_get_connection() that allows the
server to determine if the request is still associated with a connection.
If it's not, evhttp_request_free() needs to be called explicitly or the user
can call evhttp_send_reply_end() which just frees the request, too.
This is a partial forward-port from 4fd2dd9d83a000b6. There's no need
to forward-port the bugfix, since the test passes with http.c as-is.
I believe we fixed this while we were porting evhttp to bufferevent.

The entry points are evutil_getaddrinfo and evdns_getaddrinfo respectively.
There are fairly extensive unit tests.
I believe this code conforms to RFC3493 pretty closely, but there are
probably more issues. It should get tested on more platforms.
This code means we can dump the well-intentioned but weirdly-implemented
bufferevent_evdns and evutil_resolve code.

I've gone through everything that it declared to see where it was used,
and it seems that we probably don't need it anywhere.
Here's what it declared, and why I think we're okay dropping it.
o struct timeval {}
(Used all over, and we can't really get away with declaring it ourselves;
we need the same definition the system uses. If we can't find struct
timeval, we're pretty much sunk.)
o struct timespec {}
(Used in event.c, evdns.c, kqueue.c, evport.c. Of these,
kqueue.c and event.c include sys/_time.h. event.c conditions its use on
_EVENT_HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME, and kqueue() only works if timespec is defined.)
o TIMEVAL_TO_TIMESPEC
(Used in kqueue.c, but every place with kqueue has sys/time.h)
o struct timezone {}
(event2/util.h has a forward declaration; only evutil.c references it and
doesn't look at its contents.)
o timerclear, timerisset, timercmp, timeradd, timersub
(Everything now uses the evutil_timer* variants.)
o ITIMER_REAL, ITIMER_VIRTUAL, ITIMER_PROF, struct itemerval
(These are only used in test/regress.c, which does not include _time.h)
o CLOCK_REALTIME
(Only used in evdns.c, which does not include _time.h)
o TIMESPEC_TO_TIMEVAL
o DST_*
o timespecclear, timespecisset, timespeccmp, timespecadd, timespecsub
o struct clockinfo {}
o CLOCK_VIRTUAL, CLOCK_PROF
o TIMER_RELTIME, TIMER_ABSTIME
(unused)

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
