Refactor http_fetch to reflect the new standard
Partial #4576. The spec is really getting funky now - it's depending more and more on the DOM objects (e.g. prompting the user for authentication using a `Window` object). I think we can just pass in username and password as properties of the `Request` struct though.
I've also added in the async version for http_request.

Clarify servo as parallel browser engine
In the repo title it says servo is a "parallel browser engine" whereas readme says its a "parallel browser". It will be helpful to add a more clear title.

Update string cache
Updated string_cache to 0.2, and updated the dependencies that depend on string_cache.
Removed references to string_cache_plugin.
Import atom! and ns! from string_cache.
Replaced ns!("") by ns!().
Replaced ns!(XML) and co by ns!(xml) and co.
Replaced Atom::from_slice by Atom::from.
Replaced atom.as_slice() by &*atom.

Implement Range#deleteContents
Sadly calling ExtractContents and discarding the result doesn't do the right thing.
It may be worth having a CutContents method that takes an `Option<DocumentFragment>` and switch the behavior based on it, to share the code between DeleteContents and ExtractContents, like what Gecko does. Maybe a followup.

Write animated values into the `ComputedValues` structures when animations complete or are interrupted.
This adds a new pair of reader-writer locks. I measured the performance
of style recalculation on Wikipedia and the overhead of the locks was
not measurable.
Closes#7816.

Remove dependency on regex_macros
This reduces the amount of code using unstable features that we depend on.
The hand-written IP address parser is probably just as fast.
