* In select_fd(): First get the file descriptor, then check whether any
events have to be selected at all. This has the advantage that the
caller can interpret an error return code as invalid FD. Consequently
common_poll() no longer checks FD validity separately -- this was a
race condition.
* common_poll() always selects POLLERR and POLLHUP now, which it has to
do according to the specs.

* Reworked the select support:
- The io_context additionally stores a table of lists of select_infos,
which enables it to deselect events of a pending select() when
closing a FD. This prevents a race condition potentially causing a
write to stale memory.
- The opaque selectsync* passed to FSs is now actually a select_info*.
This was necessary, since the FDs deselect() hook (unlike the
select() hook) doesn't take a "ref" argument and deselecting a
single info (e.g. caused by a premature close()) was not possible.
The select() hook's "ref" argument has become superfluous.
- It should now be relatively easy to implement a poll_on_steroids()
that can also wait for objects other than FDs (e.g. semaphores,
ports, threads etc.).
* Set/reset the signal mask in common_select(). This makes pselect()
work as required.
* Reorganized vfs_resize_fd_table().

that returns 0. Patch by Hugo Santos.
* Removed superfluous memset() of select_sync structures.
* Some cleanup.

* Adapt other sources where needed (the boot loader's RootFileSystem still
used the old implementation).
* Implemented RootFileSystem::Rewind().
