Description

The C++ and Ruby bindings have a connection_engine interface: it gathers together the functionality of pn_connection pn_transport and pn_collector to enable handler-style programming against a single connection, with no assumptions about IO or threading.

Some of this can be back-ported to C to make it easier to do reactive programming in C without using the pn_reactor (which forces IO and threading choices on the user)

Create a C version of the C++ io::connection_engine and use it as the implementation of the C++ and Go binding engines.
