descriptor-flags: eliminate non-blocking flag, and therefore set-flags#125
Conversation
A blocking or non-blocking read/write is a determined by which method is used on a read/write stream created from a file. Each of these stream methods must be implemened for all files. Therefore, it does not make sense to specify non-blocking at the file level. The set-flags method was only to be used to set or clear the non-blocking flag, so this entire method may now be eliminated.
