Bug fixes

• Fixed a bug that could sometimes cause a timeout to fire after being cancelled.
• AsyncTestCase once again passes along arguments to test methods, making it compatible with extensions such as Nose’s test generators.
• StaticFileHandler can again compress its responses when gzip is enabled.
• simple_httpclient passes its max_buffer_size argument to the underlying stream.
• Fixed a reference cycle that can lead to increased memory consumption.
• add_accept_handler will now limit the number of times it will call accept per IOLoop iteration, addressing a potential starvation issue.
• Improved error handling in IOStream.connect (primarily for FreeBSD systems)
