CHANGES:

API changes:

• Net.accept_sub is deprecated in favour of accept_fork (@talex5 #240).
  Fiber.fork_on_accept, which it used internally, has been removed.

• Allow short writes in Read_source_buffer (@talex5 #239).
  The reader is no longer required to consume all the data in one go.
  Also, add Linux_eio.Low_level.writev_single to expose this behaviour directly.

• Eio.Unix_perm is now Eio.Dir.Unix_perm.

New features:

• Add Eio.Mutex (@TheLortex @talex5 #223).

• Add Eio.Buf_write (@talex5 #235).
  This is a buffered writer for Eio sinks, based on Faraday.

• Add Eio_mock library for testing (@talex5 #228).
  At the moment it has mock flows and networks.

• Add Eio_mock.Backend (@talex5 #237 #238).
  Allows running tests without needing a dependency on eio_main.
  Also, as it is single-threaded, it can detect deadlocks in test code instead of just hanging.

• Add Buf_read.{of_buffer, of_string, parse_string{,_exn}, return} (@talex5 #225).

• Add <*> combinator to Buf_read.Syntax (@talex5 #227).

• Add Eio.Dir.read_dir (@patricoferris @talex5 #207 #218 #219)

Performance:

• Add Buf_read benchmark and optimise it a bit (@talex5 #230).

• Inline Buf_read.consume to improve performance (@talex5 #232).

Bug fixes / minor changes:

• Allow IO to happen even if a fiber keeps yielding (@TheLortex @talex5 #213).

• Fallback for traceln without an effect handler (@talex5 #226).
  traceln now works outside of an event loop too.

• Check for cancellation when creating a non-protected child context (@talex5 #222).

• eio_linux: handle EINTR when calling getrandom (@bikallem #212).

• Update to cmdliner.1.1.0 (@talex5 #190).
