Issue 1118 (#1121)

* fix: Correctly emit JSON for --server --json.

Put extra error diagnostic information behind --verbose, to avoid putting
extra "error" members in JSON output.

Fixes #1118.

Enable writing to pidfile in client mode (#1110)

Server select timeout to prevent server to get stuck because of client or network errors (#1101)

fix: include iperf_util.h in main.c (#954)

73b02f9 implemented `daemon(3)` for systems that don't have it, but the
function prototype was never included in `main.c` where it is
referenced.

feat: Authentication failure doesn't count for --one-off. (#877)

Fixes #864.

Implement daemon(3) for systems that don't have it.

Fixes (and based on a patch in) #369, with some reworking by @bmah888 and @pprindeville.

257 Segfault in the signal handler

Add one-off mode, where the server serves exactly one request.

Primarily useful for bwctl integration, this is enabled with the -1
and/or --one-off flags.

Rename locale.{c,h} to iperf_locale.{c,h} to avoid filename collision
with system header <locale.h>.

This apparently fixes problems on an ARM build, but this was generally
broken anyway. It's slightly amazing this didn't cause problems before;
perhaps we never used <locale.h> before?

Addresses #203.

Fix breakage due to iperf.h depending on the autoconf config.h file but
not including it.

To fix this required us to change config.h to iperf_config.h (to
avoid potential filename collisions with this generic name). Then
iperf.h could include this.

Adjust the existing header file inclusions to track this, and also
canonicalize their inclusion to be at the top of *.c files.

Add a few API calls to the client-side example program so we can
exercise recently-added JSON-related functionality.

Revert part of earlier change.

We still want to save the JSON for libiperf consumers that might want it,
but preserve the prior behavior of writing that JSON to stdout. This
maintains (roughly) the behavior of older libiperf, in which libiperf
consumers (such as the iperf3 executable) do not need to explicitly print
the JSON if that's all they're doing with it.

Part of Issue #147.

commit 51a275de9463febc440d41cee9d971fcd381e01c
Author: Bruce A. Mah <[email protected]>

Allow consumers of libiperf3 to get the JSON output for a just-completed test.

This changes the behavior of iperf_json_finish() so that it no longer
outputs JSON output, but saves the rendered output in a NUL-terminated
string buffer. After calling iperf_run_server() or iperf_run_client(),
the client application should check iperf_get_test_json_output() to see
if it returns a non-NULL pointer. If so, there is JSON data available
for it to print or otherwise consume. The buffer is automatically
deallocated when the containing iperf_test structure is deallocated
with iperf_free_test().

Also adds a new API call iperf_get_test_outfile() to find the output
FILE* structure.

Modifies the iperf3 application to use the new API. Users of iperf3
will not notice any functional change.

No effect in "normal" output mode (non-JSON).
