Use finalization feature so bufferevents can avoid deadlocks Since the bufferevents' events are now EV_FINALIZE (name pending), they won't deadlock. To clean up properly, though, we must use the finalization feature. This patch also split bufferevent deallocation into an "unlink" step that happens fast, and a "destruct" step that happens after finalization. More work is needed: there needs to be a way to specify a finalizer for the bufferevent's argument itself. Also, this finalizer business makes lots of the reference counting we were doing unnecessary. Also, more testing is needed.
