Carl Lerche f768163982 Filesystem manipulation APIs. (#323)
This patch adds a new crate: tokio-fs. This crate provides a wrapper
around `std` functionality that can only be performed using blocking
operations. This primarily includes filesystem operations, but it also
includes standard input, output, and error access as these streams
cannot be safely switched to non-blocking mode in a portable way.

These wrappers call the `std` functions from within a `blocking`
annotation which allows the runtime to compensate for the fact that the
thread will potentially remain blocked in a system call.

//! A runtime for writing reliable, asynchronous, and slim applications.
//!
//! Tokio is an event-driven, non-blocking I/O platform for writing asynchronous
//! applications with the Rust programming language. At a high level, it
//! provides a few major components:
//!
//! * A multi threaded, work-stealing based task [scheduler][runtime].
//! * A [reactor][reactor] backed by the operating system's event queue (epoll, kqueue,
//! IOCP, etc...).
//! * Asynchronous [TCP and UDP][net] sockets.
//! * Asynchronous [filesystem][fs] operations.
//! * [Timer][timer] API for scheduling work in the future.
//!
//! Tokio is built using [futures] as the abstraction for managing the
//! complexity of asynchronous programming.
//!
//! Guide level documentation is found on the [website].
//!
//! [website]: https://tokio.rs/docs/getting-started/hello-world/
//! [futures]: http://docs.rs/futures
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! A simple TCP echo server:
//!
//! ```no_run
//! extern crate tokio;
//!
//! use tokio::prelude::*;
//! use tokio::io::copy;
//! use tokio::net::TcpListener;
//!
//! fn main() {
//! // Bind the server's socket.
//! let addr = "127.0.0.1:12345".parse().unwrap();
//! let listener = TcpListener::bind(&addr)
//! .expect("unable to bind TCP listener");
//!
//! // Pull out a stream of sockets for incoming connections
//! let server = listener.incoming()
//! .map_err(|e| eprintln!("accept failed = {:?}", e))
//! .for_each(|sock| {
//! // Split up the reading and writing parts of the
//! // socket.
//! let (reader, writer) = sock.split();
//!
//! // A future that echos the data and returns how
//! // many bytes were copied...
//! let bytes_copied = copy(reader, writer);
//!
//! // ... after which we'll print what happened.
//! let handle_conn = bytes_copied.map(|amt| {
//! println!("wrote {:?} bytes", amt)
//! }).map_err(|err| {
//! eprintln!("IO error {:?}", err)
//! });
//!
//! // Spawn the future as a concurrent task.
//! tokio::spawn(handle_conn)
//! });
//!
//! // Start the Tokio runtime
//! tokio::run(server);
//! }
//! ```

pub mod io {
//! Asynchronous I/O.
//!
//! This module is the asynchronous version of `std::io`. Primarily, it
//! defines two traits, [`AsyncRead`] and [`AsyncWrite`], which extend the
//! `Read` and `Write` traits of the standard library.
//!
//! # AsyncRead and AsyncWrite
//!
//! [`AsyncRead`] and [`AsyncWrite`] must only be implemented for
//! non-blocking I/O types that integrate with the futures type system. In
//! other words, these types must never block the thread, and instead the
//! current task is notified when the I/O resource is ready.
//!
//! # Standard input and output
//!
//! Tokio provides asynchronous APIs to standard [input], [output], and [error].
//! These APIs are very similar to the ones provided by `std`, but they also
//! implement [`AsyncRead`] and [`AsyncWrite`].
//!
//! Unlike *most* other Tokio APIs, the standard input / output APIs
//! **must** be used from the context of the Tokio runtime as they require
//! Tokio specific features to function.
//!
//! [input]: fn.stdin.html
//! [output]: fn.stdout.html
//! [error]: fn.stderr.html
//!
//! # Utility functions
//!
//! Utilities functions are provided for working with [`AsyncRead`] /
//! [`AsyncWrite`] types. For example, [`copy`] asynchronously copies all
//! data from a source to a destination.
//!
//! # `std` re-exports
//!
//! Additionally, [`Read`], [`Write`], [`Error`], [`ErrorKind`], and
//! [`Result`] are re-exported from `std::io` for ease of use.
//!
