I have decided not to include a manual page for
cowboy_stream_h at this point because it clashes
with the cowboy_stream manual page. This decision
will be revisited in the future.

There are two important changes in this commit.
Constraints are now producing an error tuple. This error tuple
in turn can be provided to a function for formatting a human
readable error message. Both the error tuple and the formatting
code are controlled by and part of the constraint function.
Constraints now also implement the reverse operation.
When constraint functions only validate, the reverse operation
will be the same as the forward operation. When they also do
some conversion then the reverse operation will reverse it.
Since constraints are now performing 3 different operations
(forward, reverse and format_error), they now take the form
of a function accepting two separate arguments. The operation
is the first argument.
In addition, the return value was changed to take the form
of {ok, Value} | {error, Reason}. The value must be returned
as-is if it was not modified.

Simplify the interface for most cowboy_req functions. They all return
a single value except the four body reading functions. The reply functions
now only return a Req value.
Access functions do not return a Req anymore.
Functions that used to cache results do not have a cache anymore.
The interface for accessing query string and cookies has therefore
been changed.
There are now three query string functions: qs/1 provides access
to the raw query string value; parse_qs/1 returns the query string
as a list of key/values; match_qs/2 returns a map containing the
values requested in the second argument, after applying constraints
and default value.
Similarly, there are two cookie functions: parse_cookies/1 and
match_cookies/2. More match functions will be added in future commits.
None of the functions return an error tuple anymore. It either works
or crashes. Cowboy will attempt to provide an appropriate status code
in the response of crashed handlers.
As a result, the content decode function has its return value changed
to a simple binary, and the body reading functions only return on success.
