Provides a `select!` macro for concurrently waiting on multiple async
expressions. The macro has similar goals and syntax as the one provided
by the `futures` crate, but differs significantly in implementation.
First, this implementation does not require special traits to be
implemented on futures or streams (i.e., no `FuseFuture`). A design goal
is to be able to pass a "plain" async fn result into the select! macro.
Even without `FuseFuture`, this `select!` implementation is able to
handle all cases the `futures::select!` macro can handle. It does this
by supporting pre-poll conditions on branches and result pattern
matching. For pre-conditions, each branch is able to include a condition
that disables the branch if it evaluates to false. This allows the user
to guard futures that have already been polled, preventing double
polling. Pattern matching can be used to disable streams that complete.
A second big difference is the macro is implemented almost entirely as a
declarative macro. The biggest advantage to using this strategy is that
the user will not need to alter the rustc recursion limit except in the
most extreme cases.
The resulting future also tends to be smaller in many cases.

In an effort to reach API stability, the `tokio` crate is shedding its
_public_ dependencies on crates that are either a) do not provide a
stable (1.0+) release with longevity guarantees or b) match the `tokio`
release cadence. Of course, implementing `std` traits fits the
requirements.
The on exception, for now, is the `Stream` trait found in `futures_core`.
It is expected that this trait will not change much and be moved into `std.
Since Tokio is not yet going reaching 1.0, I feel that it is acceptable to maintain
a dependency on this trait given how foundational it is.
Since the `Stream` implementation is optional, types that are logically
streams provide `async fn next_*` functions to obtain the next value.
Avoiding the `next()` name prevents fn conflicts with `StreamExt::next()`.
Additionally, some misc cleanup is also done:
- `tokio::io::io` -> `tokio::io::util`.
- `delay` -> `delay_until`.
- `Timeout::new` -> `timeout(...)`.
- `signal::ctrl_c()` returns a future instead of a stream.
- `{tcp,unix}::Incoming` is removed (due to lack of `Stream` trait).
- `time::Throttle` is removed (due to lack of `Stream` trait).
- Fix: `mpsc::UnboundedSender::send(&self)` (no more conflict with `Sink` fns).
