[PATCH lttng-tools 8/9] lttng-ctl: notifications: use epoll()/poll() instead of select()

[Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>]

The select(2) system call is an ancient ABI limited to processes
containing at most FD_SETSIZE file descriptors overall (typically
1024).

Those notification APIs will fail if the target file descriptor
is above FD_SETSIZE in a process containing many file descriptors.

Never use select, use the lttng epoll/poll wrapper instead.

This patch depends on "Change lttng_poll_wait behaviour of compat-poll
to match compat-epoll" posted by Yannick Lamarre.
