Also CopyFile() doesn't preserve sparseness.

So, don't use UTF-8 literals when trying to represent invalid byte sequences. Just use standard string literals.

Without ASYNC_LIBS, capnp-test doesn't get linked with Winsock, which is needed.

Not sure how this ever worked.

I wrote these while working on Windows support but they apply to Unix too.

I started from a clone of the Unix version of filesystem-disk.c++, and modified from there. The changes are pretty invasive, so I don't think trying to share implementations would have worked well.

Mostly adding / changing comments. Also some tweaks to consider that Windows uses HANDLEs rather than file descriptors.

Just a random thing I noticed.

Windows support will be implemented in a separate file.

There are two purposes:

1. Convert all the way to/from wchar_t, to make interfacing with Win32 filesystem APIs easier.
2. Use and handle '\\?\'-style paths. This prefix apparently opts into support for longer filenames. This seems like a good idea for any new programs! (It also opts out of support for using forward slashes as path separators and handling of '..', but kj::Path already handles these, so great.)

A parameter type of `String` takes precedence over `StringPtr` when matching a parameter of type `String&` (i.e. an lvalue), but then doesn't work since `String` has no copy constructor. Matching `String&&` instead avoids this problem.

Especially, this adds KJ_WIN32_HANDLE_ERRORS() to parallel KJ_SYSCALL_HANDLE_ERRORS().

Also include the error number in the string even if there is a message, because otherwise looking them up is hard.

Also remove the trailing newline from the message.

Different platforms have different sizes for wchar_t. For example:

* Linux: 32-bit (originally intended as UCS-4, rarely used in practice)
* Windows: 16-bit (originally intended as UCS-2, but now probably treated as UTF-16)
* BeOS: 8-bit (strictly intended to be UTF-8)

For KJ purposes, we'll assume wchar_t arrays use the UTF encoding appropriate to their size, whatever that may be on the target platform.

This is mainly being added because the Win32 API uses wchar_t heavily.

This allows arbitrary char16 arrays to round-trip through UTF-8 without losing information, even if the char16 arrays are not valid UTF-16.

This is necessary e.g. for filesystem manipulation on Windows, where filenames contain 16-bit characters but valid UTF-16 is not enforced.

Invalid UTF-16 represented in UTF-8 is affectionately known as WTF-8: http://simonsapin.github.io/wtf-8/

timer.h takes the place of the old time.h, while time.h itself has been pared down to only non-async-related stuff.

Since async-io.h includes timer.h, I suspect no one will be broken by this change.

I could have instead moved the non-async parts of time.h into a new header to avoid any possibility of breakage, but time.h is the correct name for the core header, and timer.h is the correct name for the async parts (the Timer class)... so I'm risking it.

Extend UnixEventPort with the ability to listen for subprocess exit.

(Later, we should add a nice subprocess API around this, maybe even one that can work on Windows too...)

Improve stack trace accuracy by subtracting 1 from each return address.

This should prevent stack traces from spurriously pointing at the line after the one where the call actually happened.

This leaks due to the old compiler bug:

Previously we only closed immediately after a response finished.

Add TaskSet.onEmpty() to wait until all tasks have completed

Fixes #286.
