    http: initial rewrite using ringbuffer + pthreads · 2a5dcba5

    This institutes the usage of a separate thread to buffer HTTP
    input.  It is basically practice code for using the ringbuffer
    code which I plan on reusing for the OutputBuffer as well as
    further input buffering for disk (networked filesystems over
    WAN, laptops on battery, etc).
    
    Each readFromInputStream() call on an HTTP stream can take
    several seconds to complete, short reads are avoided.
    
    A single-threaded solution for systems supporting large enough
    SO_RCVBUF values should also be possible and will likely be done
    in the future; but this lock-free(except when full/empty)
    ringbuffer is cool :)
