Add getter/setter functions for the fields of public structs that
might be relevant to e.g. Node.js addons.
Through these methods, ABI compatibility for a subset of the ABI
is easier to achieve, since using them makes code independent
of the exact offsets of these fields.
The intended use case that prompted this are N-API addons for
Node.js, which look for more long-term ABI compatibility guarantees
than typical Node code. With these helper functions, using libuv
directly should no longer be an obstacle for such addons.

Commit 393c1c5 ("unix: set non-block mode in uv_{pipe,tcp,udp}_open")
causes a regression in the io.js cluster module.
The io.js documentation states that `worker.send()` and `process.send()`
are synchronous but they no longer were after upgrading to libuv v1.2.1.
The reason they are synchronous is because of backpressure - or rather,
lack of backpressure: a slow consumer eventually causes a fast producer
to run out of memory because the backlog of pending messages in the
producer can grow unchecked.
Ergo, implement uv_stream_set_blocking() on UNIX platforms to let io.js
enable the old blocking behavior for pipes again.
