The ssl_stream wrapper provides C++11 move semantics for ssl::stream,
as well as incorporating the flat_stream workaround for a performance
problem with ssl::stream writes and buffer sequences having length
greater than one.
fix#1108
The `flat_stream` is a stream wrapper designed to overcome a
performance limitation of the `boost::asio::ssl::stream`
implementation. Specifically, when writing buffer sequences having
length greater than one, the `ssl::stream` implementation does
not use scatter-gather I/O and instead performs a kernel transition
for every buffer in the sequence.
The wrapper addresses this problem by allocating memory and
presenting the buffer sequence into a single buffer, using
some logic to determine when this allocation is advantageous
versus simply passing the buffers through as-is.

fix#769
The following classes are removed:
* handler_type
* async_result
* async_completion
* is_dynamic_buffer
* is_const_buffer_sequence
* is_mutable_buffer_sequence
* handler_alloc
Actions Required:
* Use BOOST_ASIO_HANDLER_TYPE instead of handler_type
* Use BOOST_ASIO_INITFN_RESULT_TYPE instead of async_result
* Use boost::asio::async_completion
* Use boost::asio::is_dynamic_buffer
* Use boost::asio::is_const_buffer_sequence
* Use boost::asio::is_mutable_buffer_sequence
* boost::asio::associated_allocator_t replaces handler_alloc

All examples are rewritten:
* Using Best Practices
* Mostly self-contained
* New examples to complete the feature matrix
* The server-framework example is removed
