more std lib async I/O integration
* `zig test` gainst `--test-evented-io` parameter and gains the ability
   to seamlessly run async tests.
 * `std.ChildProcess` opens its child process pipe with O_NONBLOCK when
   using evented I/O
 * `std.io.getStdErr()` gives a File that is blocking even in evented
   I/O mode.
 * Delete `std.event.fs`. The functionality is now merged into `std.fs`
   and async file system access (using a dedicated thread) is
   automatically handled.
 * `std.fs.File` can be configured to specify whether its handle is
   expected to block, and whether that is OK to block even when in
   async I/O mode. This makes async I/O work correctly for e.g. the
   file system as well as network.
 * `std.fs.File` has some deprecated functions removed.
 * Missing readv,writev,pread,pwrite,preadv,pwritev functions are added
   to `std.os` and `std.fs.File`. They are all integrated with async
   I/O.
 * `std.fs.Watch` is still bit rotted and needs to be audited in light
   of the new async/await syntax.
 * `std.io.OutStream` integrates with async I/O
 * linked list nodes in the std lib have default `null` values for
   `prev` and `next`.
 * Windows async I/O integration is enabled for reading/writing file
   handles.
 * Added `std.os.mode_t`. Integer sizes need to be audited.
 * Fixed #4403 which was causing compiler to crash.

This is working towards:

./zig test ../test/stage1/behavior.zig --test-evented-io

Which does not successfully build yet. I'd like to enable behavioral
tests and std lib tests with --test-evented-io in the test matrix in the
future, to prevent regressions.

remove type coercion from array values to references
* Implements #3768. This is a sweeping breaking change that requires
   many (trivial) edits to Zig source code. Array values no longer
   coerced to slices; however one may use `&` to obtain a reference to
   an array value, which may then be coerced to a slice.

 * Adds `IrInstruction::dump`, for debugging purposes. It's useful to
   call to inspect the instruction when debugging Zig IR.

 * Fixes bugs with result location semantics. See the new behavior test
   cases, and compile error test cases.

 * Fixes bugs with `@typeInfo` not properly resolving const values.

 * Behavior tests are passing but std lib tests are not yet. There
   is more work to do before merging this branch.

std lib networking improvements, especially non-blocking I/O
* delete the std/event/net directory
 * `std.event.Loop.waitUntilFdReadable` and related functions
   no longer have possibility of failure. On Linux, they fall
   back to poll() and then fall back to sleep().
 * add some missing `noasync` decorations in `std.event.Loop`
 * redo the `std.net.Server` API. it's quite nice now, but
   shutdown does not work cleanly. There is a race condition with
   close() that I am actively working on.
 * move `std.io.OutStream` to its own file to match `std.io.InStream`.
   I started working on making `write` integrated with evented I/O,
   but it got tricky so I backed off and filed #3557. However
   I did integrate `std.os.writev` and `std.os.pwritev` with evented I/O.
 * add `std.Target.stack_align`
 * move networking tests to `lib/std/net/test.zig`
 * add `std.net.tcpConnectToHost` and `std.net.tcpConnectToAddress`.
 * rename `error.UnknownName` to `error.UnknownHostName` within the
   context of DNS resolution.
 * add `std.os.readv`, which is integrated with evented I/O.
 * `std.os.preadv`, is now integrated with evented I/O.
 * `std.os.accept4` now asserts that ENOTSOCK and EOPNOTSUPP never
    occur (misuse of API), instead of returning errors.
 * `std.os.connect` is now integrated with evented I/O.
   `std.os.connect_async` is gone. Just use `std.os.connect`.
 * fix false positive dependency loop regarding async function frames
 * add more compile notes to help when dependency loops occur
   in determining whether a function is async.
 * ir: change an assert to ir_assert to make it easier to find
   workarounds for when such an assert is triggered. In this case
   it was trying to parse an IPv4 address at comptime.
