Summary
This release fixes various issues with libcurl and polling, and disables libcurl connection cache due to insufficient api to strictly handle sockets events.
DNS Request Buffering and Deduplication
Due to performance issues with udns handling large number of simultaneous request (naive use of linked lists), a dns request buffer was added.
These changes also reduces DNS hammering, and a DNS cache will be added next.
Unbuffered Logging
Added 'log.open_file.flush' and 'log.append_file.flush' that ensure all writes to logs are immediately flushed.
