This adds bindings to the remaining functions provided by libuv, all of which
are useful operations on files which need to get exposed somehow.
Some highlights:
* Dropped `FileReader` and `FileWriter` and `FileStream` for one `File` type
* Moved all file-related methods to be static methods under `File`
* All directory related methods are still top-level functions
* Created `io::FilePermission` types (backed by u32) that are what you'd expect
* Created `io::FileType` and refactored `FileStat` to use FileType and
FilePermission
* Removed the expanding matrix of `FileMode` operations. The mode of reading a
file will not have the O_CREAT flag, but a write mode will always have the
O_CREAT flag.

Some code cleanup, sorting of import blocks
Removed std::unstable::UnsafeArc's use of Either
Added run-fail tests for the new FailWithCause impls
Changed future_result and try to return Result<(), ~Any>.
- Internally, there is an enum of possible fail messages passend around.
- In case of linked failure or a string message, the ~Any gets
lazyly allocated in future_results recv method.
- For that, future result now returns a wrapper around a Port.
- Moved and renamed task::TaskResult into rt::task::UnwindResult
and made it an internal enum.
- Introduced a replacement typedef `type TaskResult = Result<(), ~Any>`.
The general idea is to remove conditions completely from I/O, so in the meantime
remove the read_error condition to mean the same thing as the io_error condition.
The Listener trait takes two type parameters, the type of connection and the type of Acceptor,
and specifies only one method, listen, which consumes the listener and produces an Acceptor.
The Acceptor trait takes one type parameter, the type of connection, and defines two methods.
The accept() method waits for an incoming connection attempt and returns the result.
The incoming() method creates an iterator over incoming connections and is a default method.
Example:
let listener = TcpListener.bind(addr); // Bind to a socket
let acceptor = listener.listen(); // Start the listener
for stream in acceptor.incoming() {
// Process incoming connections forever (or until you break out of the loop)
}
