Use async throughout

This library will probably be used in other applications and so should be async. There are some synchronous fs calls

@Karissa: Do y'all minimalists have a minimalistic lib for helping to manage async using only callbacks without promises or anything? eg it'd be cool to do such things as:

run [a, b, c] in parallel and call cb when all our done
run [a, b, c] in sequence with each taking as input the callback result from the previous

Yes, in fact! run-parallel and run-series and run-waterfall

I made everything async with run-waterfall and run-parallel and stuck to the callback(err, result) convention. For example: https://github.com/jayrbolton/dat-pki/blob/master/lib/checkHandshake.js
