Up to now the client code has had an async API, and operated asynchronously at the packet level, but was not truly async in that it assumed that it could always write to the socket and when a partial packet came in that it could block waiting for the rest of the packet. This change makes the SMB client library full async, by adding a separate outgoing packet queue, using non-blocking socket IO and having a input buffer that can fill asynchonously until the full packet has arrived. The main complexity was in dealing with the events structure when using the CIFS proxy backend. In that case the same events structure needs to be used in both the client library and the main smbd server, so that when the client library is waiting for a reply that the main server keeps processing packets. This required some changes in the events library code. Next step is to make the generated rpc client code use these new capabilities. (This used to be commit 96bf4da3edc4d64b0f58ef520269f3b385b8da02)
