003e6595bf Refactor "timestamp" not to be its own type coupled to token buffers
Really, the uint32_t is only an optimization; any kind of unit
should work fine.  Some users might want to use time_t or
monotime_coarse_t or something like that.

0b40ed5e70 Start re-refactoring the token bucket interface.
Begin by creating a lowest-level triple of the types needed to
implement a token bucket: a configuration, a timestamp, and the raw
bucket itself.

Note that for low-level buckets, the units of the timestamp and the
bucket itself are unspecified: each user can use a different type.

(This patch breaks check-spaces; a later patch will fix it)

03b96882de Rename token_bucket_t to token_bucket_rw_t.
This is a simple search-and-replace to rename the token bucket type
to indicate that it contains both a read and a write bucket, bundled
with their configuration.  It's preliminary to refactoring the
bucket type.

c376200f6a Add a new token-bucket backend abstraction, with tests
This differs from our previous token bucket abstraction in a few
ways:

  1) It is an abstraction, and not a collection of fields.
  2) It is meant to be used with monotonic timestamps, which should
     produce better results than calling gettimeofday over and over.
