I'm not a committer, so I don't know if my vote counts, but I would
definitely favor using the blocking mode of the socket to determine
the behavior of old functions and removing the *nb() functions.
The only situation where this breaks legacy code is if someone has
improperly set the blocking mode on the socket, so it is really just
exposing a bug in the client code, not showing a regression in libssh2.
