A Cargo feature `runtime` is added, which is enabled by default, that
includes the following:
- The `client::HttpConnector`, which uses `tokio::net::TcpStream`.
- The `server::AddrStream`, which uses `tokio::net::TcpListener`.
- The `hyper::rt` module, which includes useful utilities to work with
the runtime without needing to import `futures` or `tokio` explicity.
Disabling the feature removes many of these niceties, but allows people
to use hyper in environments that have an alternative runtime, without
needing to download an unused one.
- `Client::new()` no longer needs a `Handle`, and instead makes use of
tokio's implicit default.
- Changed `Client::configure()` to `Client::builder()`.
- `Builder` is a by-ref builder, since all configuration is now
cloneable pieces.
BREAKING CHANGE: `Client:new(&handle)` and `Client::configure()` are now
`Client::new()` and `Client::builder()`.
**The `Error` is now an opaque struct**, which allows for more variants to
be added freely, and the internal representation to change without being
breaking changes.
For inspecting an `Error`, there are several `is_*` methods to check for
certain classes of errors, such as `Error::is_parse()`. The `cause` can
also be inspected, like before. This likely seems like a downgrade, but
more inspection can be added as needed!
The `Error` now knows about more states, which gives much more context
around when a certain error occurs. This is also expressed in the
description and `fmt` messages.
**Most places where a user would provide an error to hyper can now pass
any error type** (`E: Into<Box<std::error::Error>>`). This error is passed
back in relevant places, and can be useful for logging. This should make
it much clearer about what error a user should provide to hyper: any it
feels is relevant!

BREAKING CHANGE: `Error` is no longer an enum to pattern match over, or
to construct. Code will need to be updated accordingly.
For body streams or `Service`s, inference might be unable to determine
what error type you mean to return. Starting in Rust 1.26, you could
just label that as `!` if you never return an error.
The original `Connect` trait had some limitations:
- There was no way to provide more details to the connector about how to
connect, other than the `Uri`.
- There was no way for the connector to return any extra information
about the connected transport.
- The `Error` was forced to be an `std::io::Error`.
- The transport and future had `'static` requirements.
As hyper gains HTTP/2 support, some of these things needed to be
changed. We want to allow the user to configure whether they hope to
us ALPN to start an HTTP/2 connection, and the connector needs to be
able to return back to hyper if it did so.
The new `Connect` trait is meant to solve this.
- The `connect` method now receives a `Destination` type, instead of a
`Uri`. This allows us to include additional data about how to connect.
- The `Future` returned from `connect` now must be a tuple of the
transport, and a `Connected` metadata value. The `Connected` includes
possibly extra data about what happened when connecting.
BREAKING CHANGE: Custom connectors should now implement `Connect`
directly, instead of `Service`.
Calls to `connect` no longer take `Uri`s, but `Destination`. There
are `scheme`, `host`, and `port` methods to query relevant
information.
The returned future must be a tuple of the transport and `Connected`.
If no relevant extra information is needed, simply return
`Connected::new()`.
Closes#1428
BREAKING CHANGE: `Method`, `Request`, `Response`, `StatusCode`,
`Version`, and `Uri` have been replaced with types from the `http`
crate. The `hyper::header` module is gone for now.
Removed `Client::get`, since it needed to construct a `Request<B>`
with an empty body. Just use `Client::request` instead.
Removed `compat` cargo feature, and `compat` related API.
