Refactord the server to be single-threaded to make SSL work on Linux

SSL didn't work on Linux because of an incompatibility between
non-blocking sockerts and SSL (which wasn't an issue on Mac OS X for
some reason).

I decided to try switching the server to use a single thread.  This
led to a performance improvement for zodbshootout and a lower-level
networking test.  I refactored the server listening logic and kept (at
least for now) both the multi-threaded and the single-threaded
version. (The multi-threaded logic can be used by changing a single
import. Tests pass with both.).

I'm a bit worried about the asyncio server. See

  http://bugs.python.org/issue27386

Tests appear to be less stable using asyncio.server on my Mac. :(

+Each connection is run in it's own thread. Testing serveral years ago
+suggsted that this was a win, but ZODB shootout and another
+lower-level tests suggest otherwise.  It's really unclear, which is
+why we're keeping this around for now.
+
+Asyncio doesn't let you accept connections in one thread and handle
+them in another.  To get around this, we have a listener implemented
+using asyncore, but when we get a connection, we hand the socket to
+asyncio.  This worked well until we added SSL support.  (Even then, it
+worked on Mac OS X for some reason.)
+
+SSL + non-blocking sockets requires special care, which asyncio
+provides.  Unfortunately, create_connection, assumes it's creating a
+client connection. It would be easy to fix this, but it's hard to
+justify the fix to get it accepted, so we won't bother for now.
