Similar to fd and timer sources we now also support disabling counter
sources via similar functions.

Similar to the fd_enable/disable functions we now also allow the same
operations on timer sources.

Instead of ignoring epoll errors we should forward them to the caller. The
caller can then still decide to ignore errors.

We sometimes want to be able to enable/disable an fd-source without
allocating memory (for a short period, for instance). Therefore, introduce
two new functions to enable and disable an fd source.

Instead if implementing complex idle sources we now provide a hook so
other subsystems can register callbacks.
This simplifies the code a lot and doesn't drop any major functionality.

Similar to other event sources we now initialize internal data on timer
creation instead of when the source is added to the loop.

When creating a new fd-source you must supply the file descriptor
directly. You cannot delay this to the time when you add the fd to the
event loop.
This simplifies the logic and allows much smoother handling in the event
loop core.

Counter sources are based on the eventfd syscall of linux. Internally, is
uses a 64bit counter which is initialized to 0 and can be increased by the
caller. Whenever the value is non-zero, the fd is marked readable and we
call our callback. We read the 64bit integer (which resets it to 0) and
pass the current value to the callback.
This can be used to implement cross-process notification methods or to
have idle-sources as valid file-descriptors in an epoll set which could be
exported to other applications that are not compliant to our event loop.

This helper returns true if the fd is bound to an eloop object, otherwise
false is returned.

Sometimes one wants to remove all pending events for an fd. The new
ev_eloop_flush_fd() call allows this in a safe way.

Our current signal source has the problem that a single signal event is
only delivered to one random registered source. This is the design of the
signalfd kernel feature. However, for signals like SIGCHLD it is often
desired to have multiple callbacks. Hence, while keeping the old
signal-source, we now also allow a shared signal source. It is registered
the same way as the old signal source but uses a shared hook.
We may remove the old source so we don't use it in the new implementation.
There are still problems when multiple eloops are used in a single
process and you register the same shared-signum in both eloops. However,
such a design is bad anyway, so we don't care.

ev_eloop_run() runs the eloop for a given fixed time. If the dispatcher
returns and the timeout isn't reached, then the dispatcher is called
again.
This also adds the *_exit() function which allows to exit the main-loop
and can be called from anywhere (including the callbacks).

This allows to add one eloop object into another eloop. This is useful if
we want to run a single event source isolated (for instance VT on exit).
The internal epoll-descriptor allows polling so this is a fairly
straightforward implementation.

Add support for dispatching events every given interval. timerfd is used
for hooking up to the event loop, similar to how signalfd is used.
Only relative, monotonic and possibly repeating timer events are
supported. It can be enhanced if there's ever a need.

Idle events are dispatched everytime kmscon_eloop_dispatch() is called. To allow
the callbacks to add/remove/modify all current idle events (including themself),
we need to keep a pointer to the currently dispatched event.
