2019-10-10Fix signalfd polling.Adin Scannell
The signalfd descriptors otherwise always show as available. This can lead programs to spin, assuming they are looking to see what signals are pending. Updates #139 PiperOrigin-RevId: 274017890

Note that the exact semantics for these signalfds are slightly different from Linux. These signalfds are bound to the process at creation time. Reads, polls, etc. are all associated with signals directed at that task. In Linux, all signalfd operations are associated with current, regardless of where the signalfd originated. In practice, this should not be an issue given how signalfds are used. In order to fix this however, we will need to plumb the context through all the event APIs. This gets complicated really quickly, because the waiter APIs are all netstack-specific, and not generally exposed to the context. Probably not worthwhile fixing immediately.
