til_stream: introduce til_stream_hooks_t et al

There needs to be a way for a meta module like rocket to take
ownership of pipes immediately upon instantiation.  Since the
pipes are created on demand as they become tapped by the modules
using htem, the simplest way to do this is to register some
callbacks with the ability to intercept the pipe creation in
terms of ownership and driving tap control etc.

This commit forms a minimal implementation of that, with the
ability to have a single intercepter hooked into a given stream.
It's a first-come-first-served situation, but that should suffice
for now since the rocket meta module would be the entrypoint for
such constructions.  It then calls into another module to produce
on the stream, after it'll already have its hooks registered.

There might be a need for stacking hooks to let multiple modules
control pipes.  GNU Rocket for instance only deals with
floats/doubles, and doesn't make it particularly easy to work on
higher order concepts like say orbiting a vector around a point
spatially.  It might make sense to allow compositing of editors
where there's rocket controlling the simple floats, and another
doing dimensional/spatial stuff, with separate stacked meta
modules accomodating those editors.  But that's putting the cart
before the horse, let's do the stupid simple thing for now and
see what this is like.
