This adds tracing of cancellation contexts and OS operations, and
documents and cleans up the API a bit.

When reading events, instead of the consumer providing one function per
event, we now use a single function taking a variant. This makes the API
easier to use and lets the caller decide whether they want to handle all
events (checked by the compiler) or just some of them.

Note: eio_posix yields before each operation to avoid starvation.
However, if it needed to block then it did another yield afterwards when
retrying, which isn't necessary and clutters up the traces. This commit
also removes that.

(based on #554)

Using a prototype visualiser, this is what examples/net looks like with these events:

are the green zones representing times where a fiber is actually running?

Yes, that's right.

That's fairly cool, I don't think I've seen that in any "classic" trace visualizer (perfetto, tracy, etc.). It means you emit a lot of events though, don't you?

We only switch fibers when a fiber suspends, and we need to log why it's suspending anyway, so it's not a lot more events.

CHANGES:

New features / API changes:

- Add `Eio.Executor_pool` (@SGrondin ocaml-multicore/eio#639, reviewed by @talex5).
  Provides an easy way to distribute jobs across domains.

- Add `Fiber.first ~combine` and `Fiber.n_any` (@SGrondin @talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#587).
  Allows keeping both results in the case where multiple fibers succeed.

- Add `Eio_mock.Backend.run_full` with auto-advancing mock clock (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#644, reviewed by @SGrondin).
  Simplifies testing of code using clocks.

- Add `Buf_write.printf` (@SGrondin @talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#655).

- Add `Net.listening_addr` (@mefyl ocaml-multicore/eio#555, reviewed by @patricoferris @talex5).
  Useful to get the socket's address if the OS assigns it.

- Add `Promise.try_resolve` (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#646).

- Remove `Cancel_hook_failed` exception (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#640).
  Didn't seem to be used and broke dscheck.

Tracing:

- Improve tracing (@TheLortex @patricoferris @talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#656).
  Trace cancellation contexts and OS operations, and simplify API.

- Add labels to switches (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#661, reviewed by @SGrondin).

- `Fiber.all`: use the parent fiber (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#665, reviewed by @SGrondin).
  Cleans up the traces a bit.

Performance:

- Faster and simpler `Lf_queue` (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#647, based on work by @polytypic).

- Optimise `Flow.copy` with `Buf_read.as_flow` (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#663, reviewed by @SGrondin, reported by @leostera).

Bug fixes:

- Fix handling of very long IO vectors (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#653, reported by @Cjen1).

- eio_posix: use `caml_enter_blocking_section` in more places (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#654, reviewed by @SGrondin).

- eio_posix: work around `caml_unix_alloc_sockaddr` bug (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#651).

- Remove default backtrace from `Switch.fail` (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#664).

Documentation:

- Organise eio.mli better (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#667).

- Fix quoting of quotes in process error messages (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#666, reviewed by @SGrondin).

- Mention Path module in File and Fs documentation (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#659, requested by @clecat).

- Minor documentation updates (@SGrondin @talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#670).

Build / internals:

- Allow closing synchronous streams (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#641, reviewed by @SGrondin).
  This isn't currently exposed in the public interface.

- Fix non-idempotent tests (@SGrondin ocaml-multicore/eio#662).

- eio_windows: add explicit fmt dependency (@talex5 ocaml-multicore/eio#643).
