Epoll based multipoller

This is a multipoller based on epoll rather than poll.

Note that this implementation is aimed at correctness rather than
performance, although it should immediately have better scalability to
large numbers of FDs, both due to epoll's O(1) sized API and due to not
needing to wake up polling threads to do interest set changes.

One notable difference here is that we directly attach a wakeup fd
rather than using the freelisting kick mechanism that the poll() based
implementations use, because modifying the epoll set to use a different
kick fd each time isn't free.
