Rewrite wesnoth network stack using boost::asio.
Additional Information
Currently, wesnoth uses 'sdl net' for network layer. There's a number of issues with it. We want to recode wesnoth network layer (wesnothd server, wesnoth client, stats uploader) using a framework like boost::asio. Features wanted:
- proxy support.
- configurable timeout value for connections.
- ability for wesnoth client to multiplex connections to wesnoth server (allow client to connect to wesnoth server multiple times)
- ability to use wesnoth network client with a different c++ backend (e.g., use wesnoth network client as a library)
