Some libuv tests

Pretty much the samples from the libuv tutorials. However, completed and with some scant comments.

Found the libuv tutorials rather spotty: missing declarations, unclear description of memory allocations and reclaiming. There are other code samples on WWW; some of them however are coded against older API vesions.

In any event, consider asychronous programming harmful. It makes sense in a browser WEB GUI which is single threaded, but for real systems programming asynchronous event handling leads to messy call-backs, confused memory management and tangled code, IMHO.
