Passing grpc_slice by value and/or returning it can be very costly,
introducing many extra instructions to push the structure to the
stack and poping it.
This CL, wherever possible, changes grpc_slice to be passed by
value.
On a local benchmark, I obserse 4-7% improvements in latency and QPS.
There are still copies to the slice_ref vtable which @arjunroy
is fixing as part of his major effort to use grpc_core::RefCount
for slices and devirtualizing them.
This is to use `grpc_core::RefCount` to improve performnace.
This commit also replaces explicit C vtables, with C++ vtable
with its own compile time assertions and performance benefits.
It also makes use of `RefCountedPtr` wherever possible.
- trace system is now thread safe when run with TSAN
- fix a race in client_auth_filter.c
- allow timer manager to run in single threaded mode for fuzzers
This extends the existing http parser to support requests as well as responses.
httpcli continues to exist and work as it has previously, though in the new
directory src/core/http (to reflect the fact the directory now contains code
relevant to parsing requests, which httpcli would not generally involve itself
in).
