TIP 287 by Michael A. Cleverly : Add a 'chan available' Command

Sounds fine, except for the name. 'chan available' sounds like a test

'chan buffered' is probably no better.

chan readable $chan
returns the number of ?bytes? to read or -1 for eof?

( i always wanted [ fileevent exception ] to catch eof, broken pipe .. )
