Dispatch requests in the implementation of the stream, not in the code
creating these requests. The requests might be piled up and invoked
internally in the implementation, so it should know better when it is
the time to dispatch them.

In fact, TLS was doing exactly this thing which led us to...

Fix: #1512

@indutny into v1.x? Shouldn't this target master and then be backported?

Yeah, right. I'm bad at this thing.

Fix: nodejs#1512
Make sure that no WriteItem's callback will be invoked synchronously.
Doing so may lead to the use of uninitialized `req` object, or even
worse use-after-free in the caller code.

Fix: nodejs#1512

#1512 looks to be fixed with the last commit, probaby best to run another CI now. I think this fix may have to go in without a test, unless someone has an idea.

I'll probably do it a better way... will reopen this PR to target a master branch.

Does the target branch really matter? With our manual merge process, it shouldn't have any significance :)

@silverwind means the CI will work properly. (see #1560)
