    Remove old docs, rename docs_new to docs · 23122b32

    It would be probably good idea to also remove tools/docgen.py and
    asciidoc.mk, but asciidoc.mk is still mentioned under `cloud/doc`, which
    may contain some useful info which we'll need at least to review before
    removing.

  double mg_set_timer(struct mg_connection *c, double timestamp);

Schedule MG_EV_TIMER event to be delivered at timestamp time. timestamp is a UNIX time (a number of seconds since Epoch). It is double instead of time_t to allow for sub-second precision. Return the old timer value.

Example: set connect timeout to 1.5 seconds:

 c = mg_connect(&mgr, "cesanta.com", ev_handler);
 mg_set_timer(c, mg_time() + 1.5);
 ...

 void ev_handler(struct mg_connection *c, int ev, void *ev_data) {
 switch (ev) {
   case MG_EV_CONNECT:
     mg_set_timer(c, 0);  // Clear connect timer
     break;
   case MG_EV_TIMER:
     log("Connect timeout");
     c->flags |= MG_F_CLOSE_IMMEDIATELY;
     break;
