The options were added to allow developers to fix timeout
issues when reading large bodies. It is also a cleaner and
easier to extend interface.
This commit deprecates the functions init_stream, stream_body
and skip_body which are no longer needed. They will be removed
in 1.0.
The body function can now take an additional argument that is a
list of options. The body_qs, part and part_body functions can
too and simply pass this argument down to the body call.
There are options for disabling the automatic continue reply,
setting a maximum length to be returned (soft limit), setting
the read length and read timeout, and setting the transfer and
content decode functions.
The return value of the body and body_qs have changed slightly.
The body function now works similarly to the part_body function,
in that it returns either an ok or a more tuple depending on
whether there is additional data to be read. The body_qs function
can return a badlength tuple if the body is too big. The default
size has been increased from 16KB to 64KB.
The default read length and timeout have been tweaked and vary
depending on the function called.
The body function will now adequately process chunked bodies,
which means that the body_qs function will too. But this means
that the behavior has changed slightly and your code should be
tested properly when updating your code.
The body and body_qs still accept a length as first argument
for compatibility purpose with older code. Note that this form
is deprecated and will be removed in 1.0. The part and part_body
function, being new and never having been in a release yet, have
this form completely removed in this commit.
Again, while most code should work as-is, you should make sure
that it actually does before pushing this to production.

The old undocumented API is removed entirely.
While a documentation exists for the new API, it will not
be considered set in stone until further testing has been
performed, and a file upload example has been added.
The new API should be a little more efficient than the
old API, especially with smaller messages.

Changes include:
* Much simplified route configuration.
* Etag generation is now enabled by default.
* Web mimetypes are now detected by default. A bigger list of
mimetypes can be detected without any additional library.
* Mimetypes can no longer be specified as a list. Copying this
list for new connections is too costy. You can easily convert
it into a function and pass that function to the handler instead.
* You can however specify a single hardcoded mimetype. Mostly
useful when serving a single file, like an index.html file,
to avoid extra operations.
* Specifying a path as a list of tokens is not possible anymore.
Use either a binary or a string.
* Using a private directory will not work if the application
was not started properly. Cowboy will not attempt to find
the location of this directory if the VM doesn't know it,
as this caused issues in some setups.
* Overall the code has been much simplified and clarified,
and of course has now been documented.

Required since R16B01. And apparently needed in some cases before.

We know this specific parameter is case insensitive so we
automatically lowercase it to make things simpler to the
developer.
