Rick: You're probably the best candidate for this work since I suspect that
there will be a lot of similarities to the socket transport state machine, so
I'm assigning it to you. But Doug and I also discussed the possible unification
of nsIFileSpec and nsIFileChannel, so perhaps there's some work here for him
too.

Here are the tasks:
- implement AsyncWrite
- fix OpenOutputStream to leverage the transport threads rather than opening a
file stream directly -- this allows requests to be fairly scheduled
- allow for simultaneous reading and writing (needed?)
- make sure that the file transport threads are all being utilized
appropriately


I'm going to file a separate bug to:
- implement nsIFileChannel operations like CopyFrom, ResolveLink, etc. (Doug
#10435)
- implement platform-specific async i/o

I've done most of this, but want to make a tweak to OpenInputStream before I
close the bug. I'll take it.
