A hearty +1 from me but let me point out that the suggested function
prototype of uv_read() requires that the memory is committed upfront,
bump pointer allocation/release around the actual read won't work.
Adding a second uv_read() function that takes an uv_alloc_cb would
make that use case possible again.

On the other hand, not many libuv users seem to do bump pointer / slab
allocation.  Node.js may have been the only one and it no longer does.

You could take a reactionary approach and not do anything until
someone complains.  It should be fairly trivial to add later on, by
implementing `uv_read(uv_buf_t* bufs)` in terms of
`uv_read_alloc(uv_alloc_cb alloc_cb)`.  Just make sure you leave some
room in the uv_read_t for future additions.
