Networking TS compatibility

Boost.Asio now provides the interfaces and functionality specified by the "C++ Extensions for Networking" Technical Specification. In addition to access via the usual Boost.Asio header files, this functionality may be accessed through special headers that correspond to the header files defined in the TS. These are listed in the table below:

Networking TS header	Boost.Asio header
`#include <buffer>`	`#include <boost/asio/ts/buffer.hpp>`
`#include <executor>`	`#include <boost/asio/ts/executor.hpp>`
`#include <internet>`	`#include <boost/asio/ts/internet.hpp>`
`#include <io_context>`	`#include <boost/asio/ts/io_context.hpp>`
`#include <net>`	`#include <boost/asio/ts/net.hpp>`
`#include <netfwd>`	`#include <boost/asio/ts/netfwd.hpp>`
`#include <socket>`	`#include <boost/asio/ts/socket.hpp>`
`#include <timer>`	`#include <boost/asio/ts/timer.hpp>`

In some cases the new Networking TS compatible interfaces supersede older Boost.Asio facilities. In these cases the older interfaces have been deprecated. The table below shows the new Networking TS interfaces and the facilities they replace:

New interface	Old interface	Notes
`io_context`	`io_service`	The name `io_service` is retained as a typedef.
`dispatch`	`io_service::dispatch`	The `dispatch` free function can be used to submit functions to any Executor or ExecutionContext.
`post`	`io_service::post`	The `dispatch` free function can be used to submit functions to any Executor or ExecutionContext.
`defer`	`io_service::post` when the `asio_handler_is_continuation` hook returns true	The `defer` free function can be used to submit functions to any Executor or ExecutionContext.
`io_context::poll`	`io_service::poll` overload that takes `error_code&`	The `error_code` overload is not required.
`io_context::poll_one`	`io_service::poll_one` overload that takes `error_code&`	The `error_code` overload is not required.
`io_context::run`	`io_service::run` overload that takes `error_code&`	The `error_code` overload is not required.
`io_context::run_one`	`io_service::run_one` overload that takes `error_code&`	The `error_code` overload is not required.
`io_context::run_for`, `io_context::run_until`, `io_context::run_one_for`, and `io_context::run_one_until`		These functions add the ability to run an `io_context` for a limited time.
`io_context::restart`	`io_service::reset`
`execution_context`, `execution_context::service`, and `execution_context::id`	`io_service`, `io_service::service`, and `io_service::id`	The service-related functionality has been moved to the `execution_context` base class. This may also be used as a base for creating custom execution contexts.
`make_service`	`add_service`
`strand`	`io_service::strand`	This template works with any valid executor, and is itself a valid executor.
`executor_work_guard` and `make_work_guard`	`io_service::work`	Work tracking is now covered by the Executor requirements. These templates work with any valid executor.
`executor_binder` and `bind_executor`	`io_service::wrap` and `io_service::strand::wrap`	These templates work with any valid executor.
`async_result` with `CompletionToken` and `Signature` template parameters	`handler_type` and single parameter `async_result`	The `async_result` trait is now the single point of customisation for asynchronous operation completion handlers and return type.
`associated_executor` and `get_associated_executor`	`asio_handler_invoke`	The handler invocation hook has been replaced by the new Executor requirements and the associated executor traits.
`associated_allocator` and `get_associated_allocator`	`asio_handler_allocate` and `asio_handler_deallocate`	The handler allocation hooks have been replaced by the standard Allocator requirements and the associated allocator traits.
`const_buffer::data` and `mutable_buffer::data`	`buffer_cast`

`const_buffer`	`const_buffers_1`	The ConstBufferSequence requirements have been modified such that `const_buffer` now satisfies them.
`mutable_buffer`	`mutable_buffers_1`	The MutableBufferSequence requirements have been modified such that `mutable_buffer` now satisfies them.

`basic_socket_acceptor::accept` returns a socket	`basic_socket_acceptor::accept` takes a socket by reference	Uses move support so requires C++11 or later. To accept a connection into a socket object on a different `io_context`, pass the destination context to `accept`.
`basic_socket_acceptor::async_accept` passes socket to handler	`basic_socket_acceptor::async_accept` takes a socket by reference	Uses move support so requires C++11 or later. To accept a connection into a socket object on a different `io_context`, pass the destination context to `async_accept`.
`connect` overloads that take a range	`connect` overloads that take a single iterator	The `ip::basic_resolver::resolve` function now returns a range. When the `resolve` function's result is passed directly to `connect`, the range overload will be selected.
`async_connect` overloads that take a range	`async_connect` overloads that take a single iterator	The `ip::basic_resolver::resolve` function now returns a range. When the `resolve` function's result is passed directly to `async_connect`, the range overload will be selected.
