support removal and addition of i/o file descriptors on the fly.
* detect closed file descriptors
* automatically free waiters of a dead file descriptor
* give the file server the possibility to specify a callback which
notifies of a dead file descriptor
* move loop function to be a property of the mainloop instead of
framebuf (doesn't change effective behaviour)
* add the possibility to configure a timespec parameter which
attempts to call the loop function periodically
* move the event loop functions from the puffs_framebuf namespace
to puffs_framev to differential between pure memory management
functions
framebuf event loop to take n i/o fd's as parameters and also allow
dynamic add/remove of fd's. (not tested except for one fd, but more
changes coming soon)
and event handling mechanisms required in file servers with blocking
I/O backends. puffs_framebuf is built on the concept of puffs_cc
and uses those to multiplex execution where needed.
File systems are required to implement three methods:
* read frame
* write frame
* compare if frame is a response to the given one
Memory management is provided by puffs_framebuf, but the file
systems must still, of course, interpret the protocol and do e.g.
byte order conversion.
As always, puffs_framebuf is work in progress. Current users are
mount_psshfs and mount_9p.
