Clarify that the "cleanup" routing does not get called if you invoke
ASYNC_WAIT_CTX_clear_fd() directly.
Reviewed-by: Richard Levitte <levitte@openssl.org>
Implementation experience has shown that the original plan for async wait
fds was too simplistic. Originally the async logic created a pipe internally
and user/engine code could then get access to it via API calls. It is more
flexible if the engine is able to create its own fd and provide it to the
async code.
Another issue is that there can be a lot of churn in the fd value within
the context of (say) a single SSL connection leading to continually adding
and removing fds from (say) epoll. It is better if we can provide some
stability of the fd value across a whole SSL connection. This is
problematic because an engine has no concept of an SSL connection.
This commit refactors things to introduce an ASYNC_WAIT_CTX which acts as a
proxy for an SSL connection down at the engine layer.

This takes us away from the idea that we know exactly how our static
libraries are going to get used. Instead, we make them available to
build shareable things with, be it other shared libraries or DSOs.
On the other hand, we also have greater control of when the shared
library cflags. They will never be used with object files meant got
binaries, such as apps/openssl or test/test*.
With unified, we take this a bit further and prepare for having to
deal with extra cflags specifically to be used with DSOs (dynamic
engines), libraries and binaries (applications).

All those flags existed because we had all the dependencies versioned
in the repository, and wanted to have it be consistent, no matter what
the local configuration was. Now that the dependencies are gone from
the versioned Makefile.ins, it makes much more sense to use the exact
same flags as when compiling the object files.

INSTALL_PREFIX is a confusing name, as there's also --prefix.
Instead, tag along with the rest of the open source world and adopt
the Makefile variable DESTDIR to designate the desired staging
directory.
The Configure option --install_prefix is removed, the only way to
designate a staging directory is with the Makefile variable (this is
also implemented for VMS' descrip.mms et al).

If init failed we'd like to set an error code to indicate that. But if
init failed then when the error system tries to load its strings its going
to fail again. We could get into an infinite loop. Therefore we just set
a single error the first time around. After that no error is set.

Solaris builds were failing during async compilation because the .o files

In the async code for MacOS/X define _XOPEN_SOURCE (if not already
defined) as early as possible. We must do this before including
any header files, because on MacOS/X <stlib.h> includes <signal.h>
which includes <ucontext.h>. If we delay defining _XOPEN_SOURCE
and include <ucontext.h> after various system headers are included,
we are very likely to end up with the wrong (truncated) definition
of ucontext_t.
Also, better error handling and some code cleanup in POSIX fibre
construction and destruction. We make sure that async_fibre_makecontext()
always initializes the fibre to a state that can be freed.
For all implementations, check for error returns from
async_fibre_makecontext().

In theory the pthreads approach for Thread Local Storage should be more

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

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.

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

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

fibre then it can appear as if we are going up the stack when we are
not really. This change disables the check.
