This also makes Mio an implementation detail, removing it from the
public API.
This is based on #1767.

* add Child::try_wait to mirror the std API
* replace Future impl on Child with `.wait()` method to bring our
APIs closer to those in std and it allow us to
internally fuse the future so that repeated calls to `wait` result in
the same value (similar to std) without forcing the caller to fuse the
outer future
* Also change `Child::id` to return an Option result to avoid
allowing the caller to accidentally use the pid on Unix systems after
the child has been reaped
* Also remove deprecated Child methods

The I/O driver is made private and moved to `tokio::io::driver`. `Registration` is
moved to `tokio::io::Registration` and `PollEvented` is moved to `tokio::io::PollEvented`.
Additionally, the concurrent slab used by the I/O driver is cleaned up and extracted to
`tokio::util::slab`, allowing it to eventually be used by other types.

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).

## Motivation
The `tokio_net::driver` module currently stores the state associated
with scheduled IO resources in a `Slab` implementation from the `slab`
crate. Because inserting items into and removing items from `slab::Slab`
requires mutable access, the slab must be placed within a `RwLock`. This
has the potential to be a performance bottleneck especially in the context of
the work-stealing scheduler where tasks and the reactor are often located on
the same thread.
`tokio-net` currently reimplements the `ShardedRwLock` type from
`crossbeam` on top of `parking_lot`'s `RwLock` in an attempt to squeeze
as much performance as possible out of the read-write lock around the
slab. This introduces several dependencies that are not used elsewhere.
## Solution
This branch replaces the `RwLock<Slab>` with a lock-free sharded slab
implementation.
The sharded slab is based on the concept of _free list sharding_
described by Leijen, Zorn, and de Moura in [_Mimalloc: Free List
Sharding in Action_][mimalloc], which describes the implementation of a
concurrent memory allocator. In this approach, the slab is sharded so
that each thread has its own thread-local list of slab _pages_. Objects
are always inserted into the local slab of the thread where the
insertion is performed. Therefore, the insert operation needs not be
synchronized.
However, since objects can be _removed_ from the slab by threads other
than the one on which they were inserted, removal operations can still
occur concurrently. Therefore, Leijen et al. introduce a concept of
_local_ and _global_ free lists. When an object is removed on the same
thread it was originally inserted on, it is placed on the local free
list; if it is removed on another thread, it goes on the global free
list for the heap of the thread from which it originated. To find a free
slot to insert into, the local free list is used first; if it is empty,
the entire global free list is popped onto the local free list. Since
the local free list is only ever accessed by the thread it belongs to,
it does not require synchronization at all, and because the global free
list is popped from infrequently, the cost of synchronization has a
reduced impact. A majority of insertions can occur without any
synchronization at all; and removals only require synchronization when
an object has left its parent thread.
The sharded slab was initially implemented in a separate crate (soon to
be released), vendored in-tree to decrease `tokio-net`'s dependencies.
Some code from the original implementation was removed or simplified,
since it is only necessary to support `tokio-net`'s use case, rather
than to provide a fully generic implementation.

## Performance
These graphs were produced by out-of-tree `criterion` benchmarks of the
sharded slab implementation.
The first shows the results of a benchmark where an increasing number of
items are inserted and then removed into a slab concurrently by five
threads. It compares the performance of the sharded slab implementation
with a `RwLock<slab::Slab>`:
<img width="1124" alt="Screen Shot 2019-10-01 at 5 09 49 PM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2796466/66078398-cd6c9f80-e516-11e9-9923-0ed6292e8498.png">
The second graph shows the results of a benchmark where an increasing
number of items are inserted and then removed by a _single_ thread. It
compares the performance of the sharded slab implementation with an
`RwLock<slab::Slab>` and a `mut slab::Slab`.
<img width="925" alt="Screen Shot 2019-10-01 at 5 13 45 PM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2796466/66078469-f0974f00-e516-11e9-95b5-f65f0aa7e494.png">
Note that while the `mut slab::Slab` (i.e. no read-write lock) is
(unsurprisingly) faster than the sharded slab in the single-threaded
benchmark, the sharded slab outperforms the un-contended
`RwLock<slab::Slab>`. This case, where the lock is uncontended and only
accessed from a single thread, represents the best case for the current
use of `slab` in `tokio-net`, since the lock cannot be conditionally
removed in the single-threaded case.
These benchmarks demonstrate that, while the sharded approach introduces
a small constant-factor overhead, it offers significantly better
performance across concurrent accesses.
## Notes
This branch removes the following dependencies `tokio-net`:
- `parking_lot`
- `num_cpus`
- `crossbeam_util`
- `slab`
This branch adds the following dev-dependencies:
- `proptest`
- `loom`
Note that these dev dependencies were used to implement tests for the
sharded-slab crate out-of-tree, and were necessary in order to vendor
the existing tests. Alternatively, since the implementation is tested
externally, we _could_ remove these tests in order to avoid picking up
dev-dependencies. However, this means that we should try to ensure that
`tokio-net`'s vendored implementation doesn't diverge significantly from
upstream's, since it would be missing a majority of its tests.

A step towards collapsing Tokio sub crates into a single `tokio`
crate (#1318).
The `net` implementation is now provided by the main `tokio` crate.
Functionality can be opted out of by using the various net related
feature flags.
