Migrated netty to 4.x

[ooasis]

Hi,

I have submitted a pull request for netty migration on master branch. This is the request for "next" branch.

-thanks

Ah, hah, thanks! I was going to ask you to push against next but you beat me to it! I think we should push this in 1.8. 1.7 is almost done (one more bit of code I need) then we can cut it then add netty 4 to next. Would that work for you?

The buffer implementation is now determined by following properties:
io.netty.noPreferDirect: false to prefer off-heap and true for heap allocation. Default to false
io.netty.allocator.type: default to pooled or unpooled on Android platform

Hi there, just to know if there are plans to migrate to netty 4, i guess on the 1.8 version, is that correct?

Rebased to 1.8.0-SNAPSHOT

Any progress on this? We're running into version conflicts now.

Anything I can do to help?

[stoyle]

I saw the branch has merge conflicts, so I tried to resolve them. Feel free to pull these in, if they help speed up the process:

stoyle@35fa206
stoyle@72c263c

One merge commit and one fix up commit, since the merge had logical conflicts.

I do have failing tests, reported by make, but the same tests seem to fail in official asynchbase/next branch.

I've signed the contributor agreement.

Any progress on this PR? Is there something I can help push this task along?
