rewrite channel pipes to work on windows
the pipe system i was using for simulating an os-level FD (for select) was
retarded. i realized this week that i could just use a single byte in the
pipe to signal "data is ready" and not try to feed all incoming data thru
the pipe -- and then i don't have to try to make the pipe non-blocking (which
should make it work on windows). a lot of duplicate code got removed and now
it's all going thru the same code-path on read.
there's still a slight penalty on incoming feeds and calling 'recv' when a
pipe has been opened (by calling 'fileno'), but it's tiny.
removed a bunch of documentation and comments about things not working on
windows, since i think they probably do now.
don't forget demo_windows.py
update MANIFEST.in to include demo_windows.py and not include the demo
keys (they're in tests/ now). clean up the README to explain the demo
scripts better now, since there are so many of them. then fix up the
demo scripts to look in tests/ for the keys.
demo_windows.py doesn't need to call get_pty() (in fact, i think that's
blowing openssh's mind) and was executing the wrong command.
add forward.py demo script; bump to gyarados
add a demo script to show how to do local port forwarding.
add gyarados to all the docs and bump the version number everywhere.
include tests in manifest
include the tests in the manifest for dist, and remove some outdated notes in
NOTES about the exported API (this is doc'd wayyy better in epydoc now).
fix MANIFEST.in, change version numbers to 0.9-doduo, fix LPGL notices
fixed MANIFEST.in to include the demo scripts, LICENSE, and ChangeLog.
upped everything to version 0.9-doduo.
fixed the copyright notice, and added the LGPL banner to the top of every
python file.
