wildcat

A high performance golang HTTP parser.

Baseline benchmarking results:

zero :: evanphx/wildcat> go test -bench . -benchmem

NOTE: these are a bit of lie because wildcat doesn't yet do everything that net/http.ReadRequest does. The numbers are included here only to provide a baseline comparison for future work.
