Using an AlarmFuture blocks the Fiber executing Actor::waitUntilIdle,
freeing its current worker and thus preventing life-locks.
Where all workers are sleeping except one.
Which executes the Actor::waitUntilIdle Fiber causing a starvation of
the actual Actor.

[meson] fix version header custom target for meson >= 0.57

See merge request !96

Apparently custom_target no longer supports the @CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR@
and @SOURCE_DIR@ substitutions.
We now locate the script using find_program().
Since meson.project_source_dir() is not available in older meson version
there is a version check.

[IO] replace the std::mutex.try_lock with our own std::atomic based implementation

See merge request !95

[IO] add option to use a common async backend for all io_urings

See merge request !94

[EchoServerCallback] report error value passed to callback not errno

See merge request !93

[IO/Stats] make sure only Future's with a buffer have a completion expectation

See merge request !92

[IO] add FutureError and throw it when wait is called on a Future with callback

See merge request !91

[IO] add output file support to echoclient

See merge request !90

Currently future.len if set is used as completion expectation.
This does not make any sense for Futures using the len field for different
values than a buffer length.
For example the OpenatFuture uses future.len for the flags passed to openat.
Those flags should not be interpreted as an expectation about the completion
value (a file descriptor).

The wait() call on a Future with callback currently will never return
therefore calling wait() is disallowed.

This is useful for my evaluation. Because with an output file I
just have to check if it exists to see if an echoclient execution was
successful.

Improved dying

See merge request !89

This was never reported by the compiler because DIE_MSG treated
its argument as a string. With the new stream formatting support the
compiler sees the undefined symbol flag.

The stream formatting for DIE_MSG is already wrongly used in
IoContext, EchoClient and LawsDispatcher.

[IO] add callback support

See merge request !87

Futures can have a registered Callback of type
std::function<void(const uint32_t&)> which gets called in a new
Fiber with the result of the IO Request.
Note the first completion will cause the execution of a callback and
partial completion support must be implemented manually in the callback.

Callbacks are stored in a heap allocated std::function on registration
and are freed by the new Fiber after the callback returned;

The Future with a registered Callback is not referenced in any way in
the IO subsystem and therefore can be dropped after being submitted.
This also means that a Future with a registered callback will not be
signaled by the IO subsystem on completion.
If signaling is desired one must implement it manually in the registered
callback.

[test] use gtest meson wrap if gtest is not found

See merge request !88

The gtest wrap can be updated with the meson wrap command

Towards fixing modernize-avoid-c-arrays, add template_util::getSize()

[tests] Run tests in parallel if io_uring is disabled

See merge request i4/manycore/emper!85

[IO] fail hard if the globalCompleter would drop a Future

See merge request i4/manycore/emper!83

Improve networking code

See merge request i4/manycore/emper!82

Currently the globalCompleter would drop Futures which he is
unable to submit to its SQ because io_uring_submit returned -EBUSY,
signalizing a full CQ.
For now we fail hard if this hopefully unlikely condition occurs.

Additional small code changes:
* don't wrap assert in if constexpr(DEBUG)
* annotate Future completion in globalCompleter as unlikely
* use prepared Future count as unsigned
* remove redundant parenthesis
* introduce helper function for IoContext* tagging
* introduce Stats::record_io_submit_full_cq default parameter

Use getaddrinfo instead to get the socket information instead of
using always ipv4 sockets.
Pass host and port as strings for use with getaddrinfo.

Start client Fibers in batches to make sure we don't exceed the server's
TCP listen backlog.

Add support for open/openat and a simple fixed string search utility
