EzRpc: extend interface to support arbitrary streams

Closed Jonas Vautherin requested to merge github/fork/JonasVautherin/ezrpc-arbitrary-asynciostream into master

TL;DR: The whole point is the new API in ez-rpc.h, check it first, no need to review the rest if the API is bad 👍.

This is an exploration around the EzRpc API, to see if it can be extended to support arbitrary streams (enabling e.g. tls, gzip, websocket). It adds:

  • An EzRpcClient constructor without a stream, which can be set later with EzRpcClient.setStream()
  • A constructor to create an "empty" EzRpcServer (without a stream and without an acceptLoop)
  • An EzRpcServer.addStream() function to add streams to the server object (those streams can come from an external acceptLoop).

@kentonv: I really don't want to lose your time with stupid propositions, so feel free to close if this seems useless/convoluted 😅.

Note: pretty sure I messed up with the PromiseAndFulfiller, happy to get advice there 😇.
