/**
* Creates a new event context using an optionally specified implementation
* and/or optionally specified required features.
*
* If you are an application that has already decided on using a particular
* event loop implementation, you should not call this function, but instead
* import the verto-NAME.h header and link against the verto-NAME.so, where
* NAME is the implementation you wish to use.
*
* If you are a library, you should generally avoid creating event contexts
* on your own but allow applications to pass in a verto_ctx you can use.
*
* There are two cases where you should use this function. The first is
* where you have a need to choose an implementation at run time, usually
* for testing purposes. The second and more common is when you simply
* wish to remain implementation agnostic. In this later case, you should
* always call like this: verto_new(NULL, ...). This lets verto choose the best
* implementation to use.
*
* If impl is not NULL, a new context is returned which is backed by the
* implementation specified. If the implementation specified is not
* available or if the required types (reqtypes) are not provided by the
* named implementation, NULL is returned. The parameter 'impl' can specify:
* * The full path to an implementation library
* * The name of the implementation library (i.e. - "glib" or "libev")
*
* If impl is NULL, verto will attempt to automatically determine the
* best implementation to use.
*
* First, verto will attempt to use an existing, previously loaded
* implementation. This is handled automatically by internal caching of either
* the first implementation loaded or the one specified by verto_set_default().
*
* Second, verto will attempt to discern if you are already linked to any
* of the supported implementations (to avoid wasting memory by loading
* extra unnecessary libraries). If you are linked to one supported
* implementation, that implementation will be chosen. If you are linked
* to more than one supported implementation one of the ones linked to
* will be chosen, but the order of the particular choice is undefined.
*
* Third, verto will attempt to load the compile-time default, if defined at
* build time and available at runtime.
*
* Last, verto will attempt to load any implementation installed. The specific
* order of this step is undefined.
*
* In all cases above, if the implementation does not support all the specified
* features (reqtypes), it will be skipped and processing will continue from
* where it left off. This means that if verto_new() returns non-NULL it is
* guaranteed to support the features you specified.
*
* @see verto_set_default()
* @param impl The implementation to use, or NULL.
* @param reqtypes A bitwise or'd list of required event type features.
* @return A new verto_ctx, or NULL on error. Call verto_free() when done.

* This function is essentially a singleton version of verto_new(). However,
* since this function must return the same loop as the *_default() call of
* the underlying implementation (if such a function exists), it is NOT a
* global singleton, but a per-implementation singleton. For this reason, you
* must call verto_free() when you are done with this loop. Even after calling
* verto_free() on the default verto_ctx, you can safely call verto_default()
* again and receive a new reference to the same (internally default) loop.
