Support splice in http blind tunnel

1. Add TS_USE_LINUX_SPLICE as a compilation option.
2. Make MIOBuffer and MIOBufferReader polymorphic classes making their member function virtual.
3. Create PipeIOBuffer and PipeIOBufferReader as derived classed, encapsulating Linux pipe.
4. Use dynamic_cast to enable logic switch in state machines and continuations.
