This change adds three fields to thread_master and associated code to
use them. The fields are:
* long selectpoll_timeout
This is a millisecond value that, if nonzero, will override the
internally calculated timeout for select()/poll(). -1 indicates
nonblocking while a positive value indicates the desired timeout in
milliseconds.
* bool spin
This indicates whether a call to thread_fetch() should result in a loop
until work is available. By default this is set to true, in order to
keep the default behavior. In this case a return value of NULL indicates
that a fatal signal was received in select() or poll(). If it is set to
false, thread_fetch() will return immediately. NULL is then an
acceptable return value if there is no work to be done.
* bool handle_signals
This indicates whether or not the pthread that owns the thread master
is responsible for handling signals (since this is an MT-unsafe
operation, it is best to have just the root thread do it). It is set to
true by default. Non-root pthreads should set this to false.
