Create default stable feature before 1.0 to avoid future breaking changes #417

Hey, this comes from a discussion that happened on reddit after a announcement of this crate, basically it would be nice to split this crate in features in the future, to allow using just a fraction of it. This would make it incredibly easy to integrate this crate with others in the async ecosystem.

But splitting into features is a breaking change, since it will break the crate for whoever uses default-features = false, so either we do it before 1.0, or we will have to wait for 2.0.

There is a trick tho, we can avoid this breaking change if we crate a stable feature right now and put everything stable in it, so default-features = false wouldn't work and they would be forced to select the features from the start.
