libuv bindings for Haxe

## Philosophy

This library targets to express unopinionatedly the libuv api in a Haxe fashion (e.g. managed memory allocation, GC-friendly, allow closures, etc). So there should be 1-to-1 mapping for each API. 

## Documentation

The original libuv documentation should generally apply. However, function signatures might be slightly different from the original in order to fit the Haxe language.

## Supported targets

- C++, requires the [`linc_uv`](https://github.com/kevinresol/linc_uv) library

(possible to support other targets in the future)

## Example

```haxe

// create a echo tcp server

var server = Tcp.alloc();

server.bind('0.0.0.0', 7000, 0);

server.listen(128, function(_) {

	var client = Tcp.alloc();

	server.accept(client);

	client.readStart(function(status, bytes) {

		if(bytes != null) client.write(bytes, function(_) trace('echoed')); // echo

		else client.close(function() trace('closed')); // client ended

	});

});

// connect to the server, send a string and print the echo from server

var tcp = Tcp.alloc();

tcp.connect('127.0.0.1', 7000, function(status) {

	tcp.write(Bytes.ofString('Hello World!'), function(_) trace('written')); // write to server

	tcp.shutdown(function(status) trace('shutdown')); // close the outgoing stream

	tcp.readStart(function(status, bytes) {

		if(bytes != null) trace(bytes.toString());

		else tcp.close(function() trace('closed')); // close the tcp socket

	});

});

```
