Though the callers check the function return value and ignore the
size_t output argument on failure, it is still often not ideal to
store (-1) in size_t on error. That might signal an unduly large
buffer. Instead set the size_t to 0, to indicate no space.

Implements Thread Local Storage in the windows async port. This also has
some knock on effects to the posix and null implementations.
Reviewed-by: Rich Salz <rsalz@openssl.org>
In theory the pthreads approach for Thread Local Storage should be more
portable.
This also changes some APIs in order to accommodate this change. In
particular ASYNC_init_pool is renamed ASYNC_init_thread and
ASYNC_free_pool is renamed ASYNC_cleanup_thread. Also introduced ASYNC_init
and ASYNC_cleanup.

A lot of the pool handling code was in the arch specific files, but was
actually boiler plate and the same across the implementations. This commit
moves as much code as possible out of the arch specific files.

We were using _pipe to create a pipe on windows. This uses the "int" type
for its file descriptor for compatibility. However most windows functions
expect to use a "HANDLE". Probably we could get away with just casting but
it seems more robust to use the proper type and main stream windows
functions.

The rand code can aquire locks and then attempt crypto operations. This
can end up in a deadlock if we are using an async engine, because control
returns back to the user code whilst still holding the lock. We need to
force synchronous operation for these sections of code.

There are potential deadlock situations that can occur if code executing
within the context of a job aquires a lock, and then pauses the job. This
adds an ability to temporarily block pauses from occuring whilst performing
work and holding a lock.

During development some functions got added and then later taken away.
Since these will never appear in a production version there is no reason
for them to appear in libeay.num flagged as "NOEXIST".

Even with _XOPEN_SOURCE defined OS-X still displays warnings that
makecontext and friends are deprecated. This isn't a problem until you
try and build with --strict-warnings, and the build fails. This change
suppresses the warnings. We know they are deprecated but there is no
alternative!

async_fibre_makecontext was initialise the fibre first and then calling
getcontext(). It should be the other way around because the getcontext
call may overwrite some of the things we just initialised. This didn't
cause an issue on Linux and so the problem went unnoticed. On OS-X it
causes a crash.

_longjmp/_setjmp do not manipulate the signal mask whilst

If config'd without -d (--debug), asynctest was crashing with:
*** longjmp causes uninitialized stack frame ***
This is because gcc will add certain checks for some functions
(including longjmp). The checks assume you can only longjmp down the
stack not up. However, if we are actually jumping to a different
fibre then it can appear as if we are going up the stack when we are
not really. This change disables the check.

Add some clarifications to the async documentation. Also changed
ASYNC_pause_job() so that it returns success if you are not within the
context of a job. This is so that engines can be used either asynchronously
or synchronously and can treat an error from ASYNC_pause_job() as a real
error.

If an async event occurs during a renegotiation in SSL_read then s_server

Initial API implemented for notifying applications that an ASYNC_JOB
has completed. Currently only s_server is using this. The Dummy Async
engine "cheats" in that it notifies that it has completed *before* it
pauses the job. A normal async engine would not do that.
Only the posix version of this has been implemented so far, so it will
probably fail to compile on Windows at the moment.

Removed the function ASYNC_job_is_waiting() as it was redundant. The only
