2017-04-15	Add AioCb::from_boxed_slice	Alan Somers
	The existing AioCb constructors work for simple programs where everything is stored on the stack. But in more complicated programs the borrow checker can't prove that a buffer will outlive the AioCb that references it. Fix this problem by introducting AioCb::from_boxed_slice, which takes a reference-counted buffer. Fixes #575
2017-04-15	tests should protect concurrent access to signal handlers	Alan Somers
	Adds a mutex to protect access to SIGUSR2 signal handlers by the AIO tests. Fixes #578
2017-02-24	impl Debug for AioCb and SigevNotify	Alan Somers
	Also, fix style bug in AIO tests
2017-02-05	Implement Drop for AioCb	Alan Somers
	If an AioCb has any in-kernel state, AioCb.drop will print a warning and wait for it to complete.
2017-02-05	Add runtime checks to AioCb methods	Alan Somers
	Prevent immutable buffers from being used with aio_read or lio_listio with LIO_READ. AioCb.from_slice no longer needs to be unsafe.
2017-01-26	Turn most aio functions into AioCb methods	Alan Somers

2017-01-25	Add PhantomData to AioCb to track buffer's lifetime	Alan Somers

2016-12-16	Add POSIX AIO support	Alan Somers
	POSIX AIO is a standard for asynchronous file I/O. Read, write, and fsync operations can all take place in the background, with completion notification delivered by a signal, by a new thread, by kqueue, or not at all. This commit supports all standard AIO functions. However, lio_listio is disabled on macos because it doesn't seem to work, even though the syscall is present. The SigEvent class, used for AIO notifications among other things, is also added. Also, impl AsRef for TimeVal and TimeSpec
