layer: Add tower-layer and the Layer trait (#163)
This change introduces the new `tower-layer` crate and the foundational `Layer` trait to go along with it. This trait allows one to easily compose a set of `Service`s that take an inner service. These services only modify the request/response. This also provides the `Layer` implementation for many of the tower crates.

# Tower Layer
Decorates a `Service`, transforming either the request or the response.
## Overview
Often, many of the pieces needed for writing network applications can be
reused across multiple services. The `Layer` trait can be used to write
reusable components that can be applied to very different kinds of services;
for example, it can be applied to services operating on different protocols,
and to both the client and server side of a network transaction.
