In accordance with tokio-rs/tokio-rfcs#3, the executor functionality of
Tokio is being removed and will be relocated into futures-rs as a
"current thread" executor.
This PR removes task execution from the code base. As a temporary
mesure, all examples and tests are switched to using CpuPool.
Depends on #19.
In accordance with tokio-rs/tokio-rfcs#3, timers are being extracted
from Tokio and moved to a separate crate (probably futures-timer).
This PR removes timers from the code base.
This text historically was copied verbatim from rust-lang/rust's own README [1]
with the intention of licensing projects the same as rustc's own license, namely
a dual MIT/Apache-2.0 license. The clause about "various BSD-like licenses"
isn't actually correct for almost all projects other than rust-lang/rust and
the wording around "both" was slightly ambiguous.
This commit updates the wording to match more precisely what's in the
standard library [2], namely clarifying that there aren't any BSD-like licenses
in this repository and that the source is licensable under either license, at
your own discretion.

This example is intended to showcase sharing state between all connected clients
on a server, for example a key/value store (in-memory database)
Closes#257
Some contexts, like EC2, have `Instant::now` as a relatively expensive function
to call. To help amortize the cost of this function this commit exposes a new
function on `Interval` and `Timeout` to pass in the assumed current time.
The `consume_queue` function can be relatively slow for an empty queue (the fast
path) so optimize this a bit with a preflight check that should just touch a few
atomics.
My slab bump in #246 added a potential new panic in Core's Inner's
`cancel_timeout`.
Thankfully, the only way `cancel_timeout` can be called is from
TimeoutToken's `cancel_timeout`, which is crate-internal only and is
only called from Timeout's and Interval's drop fn's.
This change simply adds new clarifying documentation around
TokenTimeout's cancel_timeout to "future proof" anybody looking to use
cancel_timeout directly (not just on drop).
