HTTPCLIENT-1942: Add support for Reactive Streams
This contribution adds initial support for the [Reactive Streams
specification](http://www.reactive-streams.org/). The main part of this change
is a pair of non-public classes, the `ReactiveDataProducer` and
`ReactiveDataConsumer`, which are reactive adapters for Apache's
AsyncDataProducer and AsyncDataConsumer interfaces. Two public classes are
built on top of these types:
* `ReactiveEntityProducer`: An `AsyncEntityProducer` implementation backed
by `ReactiveDataProducer` that allows a `Publisher<ByteBuffer>` to be streamed
as a request body
* `ReactiveResponseConsumer`: An `AsyncResponseConsumer` that exposes the
overall HTTP response as a `Message<HttpResponse, Publisher<ByteBuffer>>`,
allowing the body to be consumed by a `Subscriber<ByteBuffer>`
These classes are enough to allow the async Apache client to
straightforwardly integrate with reactive frameworks like
[RxJava](https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxJava), [Akka](https://akka.io/), and
[Vert.x](https://vertx.io/).
