include: remove uv_strlcat() and uv_strlcpy()

It was pointed out that they don't quite work like their BSD namesakes
and they arguably shouldn't have been part of the API anyway.

build: fix check target for mingw

unix: add spinlock.h

Add an atomic, non-blocking spinlock type. The primary use case is to
have a mutex type that we can use while inside a signal handler.

unix: add atomic-ops.h

Add cmpxchgi(), cmpxchgl() and cpu_relax() functions that we can use
as simple primitives to build spinlocks out of.

build: use -pthread on sunos

When building on sunos with autoconf make sure to specify -pthread
otherwise there will be race conditions with errno and etc

windows: run close callbacks after polling for i/o

Makes the uv-win behavior compatible with uv-unix.

Fixes #796.

build: include internal headers in source list

Allows 'make dist-*' targets to generate working tarballs.

Should make integration easier for people that bundle libuv with their
own projects because they no longer have to replicate magic -framework
incantations in their top-level build system.

unix, windows: allow NULL async callback

Allow a NULL callback so the user doesn't have to provide a dummy when
the actual event is processed by e.g. a check handle callback.

Object files are built in subdirectories now so fix up the dtrace
postprocessing step to scan for *.lo files in said subdirectories.

unix, windows: return error codes directly

This commit changes the libuv API to return error codes directly rather
than storing them in a loop-global field.

A code snippet like this one:

if (uv_foo(loop) < 0) {
uv_err_t err = uv_last_error(loop);
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
}

Should be rewritten like this:

int err = uv_foo(loop);
if (err < 0)
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));

The rationale for this change is that it should make creating bindings
for other languages a lot easier: dealing with struct return values is
painful with most FFIs and often downright buggy.

build: switch to autotools

Switch to the build tool everyone loves to hate. The Makefile has
served us well over the years but it's been acquiring more and more
features that autotools gives us for free, like easy static+shared
library building, sane install targets, and so on.

This commit drops MinGW support. If there is demand for it, we'll
re-add it.
