Adds an implementation of SRFI 25 on top of Guile's native arrays. The
implementation does not introduce a disjoint type; Guile arrays and
SRFI-25 arrays can be used interchangably, though with different, partly
conflicting APIs.
* NEWS: Add preliminary, incomplete section on 2.0.12, noting the
addition of SRFI-25.
* doc/ref/srfi-modules.texi (SRFI-25): New node.
* module/srfi/srfi-25.scm: New file.

(*open-sockets*): Add comment. This is now a list of pairs with a
'force-close' procedure in the cdr.
(close-socket!): Add comment noting that it is unsafe to call this
from another thread.
(add-open-socket!): Add 'force-close' argument, and put it in the cdr
of the '*open-sockets*' entry.
(stop-server-and-clients!): Use 'match'. Remove the first element
from *open-sockets* immediately. Call the 'force-close' procedure
instead of 'close-socket!'.
(errs-to-retry): New variable.
(run-server): Add a pipe, used in the 'force-close' procedure to
cleanly shut down the server. Put the server socket into non-blocking
mode. Use 'select' to monitor both the server socket and the pipe.
Don't call 'add-open-socket!' on the client-socket. Close the pipe
and the server socket cleanly when we're asked to shut down.
(serve-client): Call 'add-open-socket!' with a 'force-close' procedure
that cancels the thread. Set the thread cleanup handler to call
'close-socket!', instead of calling it in the main body.
* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi (REPL Servers): Add a caveat to the manual
entry for 'stop-servers-and-clients!'.
* libguile/uniform.h:

Deprecate. This interface lacked both generality and specificity.
The general replacement is array-length, array-ref, and friends on the
scheme side, or the array handle interface on the C side. On the
specific side of things, there are the specific bytevector, srfi-4,
and bitvector interfaces.
* test-suite/tests/arrays.test:
* test-suite/tests/bitvectors.test:
* test-suite/tests/ports.test:
* test-suite/tests/srfi-4.test: Update to use array interfaces.

argument optional, like the weak hash table constructors.
* doc/ref/api-memory.texi (Weak hash tables): Document that 'size'
argument is optional for the weak hash table constructors.
* doc/ref/api-memory.texi (Weak vectors): In 'weak-vector?' entry, don't
claim that weak hash tables are weak vectors. Remove statement that
weak vectors are mainly useful for implementing weak hash tables.
* libguile/weaks.c (scm_is_weak_vector, scm_c_weak_vector_length):
(scm_c_weak_vector_ref, scm_c_weak_vector_set_x): New interfaces for
dealing with weak vectors from C.
(scm_weak_vector_length, scm_weak_vector_ref, scm_weak_vector_set_x):
New Scheme interfaces to weak vectors; to be used instead of
vector-length, vector-ref, etc.
