This has been the fix that prevent random ecore_con DNS tests to fail for me. This should also in case
of failure make the timeout of the ecore_con itself be honored which wasn't anymore.

This changes a lot of things all across the EFL. Previously,
methods tagged @const had both their external prototype and
internal impl generated with const on object, while property
getters only had const on the external API. This is now changed
and it all has const everywhere.
Ref T6859.
Working directly with Eina_Slice is easier than a pointer to it,
requires no validation of the pointers and is cheap since it's just
putting together size_t + void*.
However we can't hint the user of 'const(Eina.Slice)' properties as
Eolian is incorrectly generating getters as:
const Eina_Slice class_property_get(...)
which is makes compilers complain about ignored qualifiers:
../src/lib/ecore/efl_io_copier.eo.h:329:7: warning: 'const' type qualifier on return type has no effect [-Wignored-qualifiers]
Leave some TODO so @q66 can fix those.
The low level I/O primitives are powerful but adds some complexity to
use, for bi-directional streaming communication one ends creating two
Efl.Io.Queue and two Efl.Io.Copier to pipe data to socket when it can
operate.
Then encapsulate the socket using the new Efl.Io.Buffered_Stream, this
will allow the socket, be a dialer or a server client, to be operated
as a single handle that internally carries about the buffering for
you.
As one can see in the examples, compared to their "manual"
alternatives they are very easy to use, ressembling
Ecore_Con_Server/Ecore_Con_Client, but also offers line-based
delimiters and the possibility to let the socket to handle queueing
for you in case you received partial messages (just do not
read/clear/discard the received data).
