2021-12-01	Page allocator moved from pools to IO loops.	Maria Matejka
	The resource pool system is highly hierarchical and keeping spare pages in pools leads to unnecessarily complex memory management. Loops have a flat hiearchy, at least for now, and it is therefore much easier to keep care of pages, especially in cases of excessive virtual memory fragmentation.
2021-11-30	For safer memory allocations, resources are bound to loops.	Maria Matejka
	Also all loops have their basic resource pool for allocations which are auto-freed when the loop is stopping.

2021-11-22	Converting the former BFD loop to a universal IO loop and protocol loop.	Maria Matejka
	There is a simple universal IO loop, taking care of events, timers and sockets. Primarily, one instance of a protocol should use exactly one IO loop to do all its work, as is now done in BFD. Contrary to previous versions, the loop is now launched and cleaned by the nest/proto.c code, allowing for a protocol to just request its own loop by setting the loop's lock order in config higher than the_bird. It is not supported nor checked if any protocol changed the requested lock order in reconfigure. No protocol should do it at all.
