* Implement dial, support IPv6 in httpclient
Added ``dial`` procedure to networking modules: ``net``, ``asyncdispatch``,
``asyncnet``. It merges socket creation, address resolution, and connection
into single step. When using ``dial``, you don't have to worry about
IPv4 vs IPv6 problem.
Fixed addrInfo loop in connect to behave properly.
Previously it would stop on first non-immediate failure, instead of
continuing and trying the remaining addresses.
Fixed newAsyncNativeSocket to raise proper error if socket creation
fails.
Fixes: #3811
* Check domain during connect() only on non-Windows
This is how it was in the previous implementation of connect().
* Call 'osLastError' before 'close' in net.dial
* Record osLastError before freeAddrInfo in net.dial
* Add missing docs for 'dial' proc
* Optimize dial to create one FD per domain, add tests
And make async IPv6 servers work on Windows.
* Add IPv6 test to uri module
* Fix getAddrString error handling
* refactor posix.nim
* types move to separate files for platform-specifc and generic
("other')
* consts move to separate files that get autogenerated by detect.nim
* proc's stay where they are for now, though in a second stage might
move as well
* fix missing when
To use JS's Date creation from string, I moved the TimeInfo formatting code above the toTime proc declaration. Also, I changed the argument type for newDate from string to cstring for it to work.
This caused a pretty bad and subtle bug in the asynchttpserver.
As far as I can understand, the fact that the returned future was
being completed first meant that the underlying async procedure
could continue running and thus clean() the FutureVar
and request new data. The control then went back and the
FutureVar was completed again causing an error.
Add yearday calculation to getLocalTime and getGMTime, so that yearday is not 0 for TimeInfo instances under JS backend.
Yearday 0 has no sense and contradicts the behaviour under C backend, where yearday is an int from 1 to 365, i.e. cannot be 0 even theoretically.
