Simply set the "quit" flag and wake up the thread. This works even if
we're inside this thread. Setting "quit" to a new value without mutex
protection is usually not safe, but good enough here.
Instead of creating a new eventfd for each DeferredMonitor instance,
reuse EventLoop's eventfd, and add a std::list to EventLoop that
manages the list of pending DeferredMonitors. This std::list is
protected by the same mutex as the "calls" list.
The bottom line is: reduced overhead because the per-instance eventfd
was eliminated, slightly added overhead due to Mutex usage (but
negligible), and we're thread-safe now.
This subsystem is now good enough to replace EventLoop::AddCall().
This change adds two configuration options:
--with-eventloop=[glib|internal|auto]
--with-pollmethod=[epoll|auto]
First allows switching between GLib event loop and internal one.
Second chooses backend to use for internal event loop.
Conditional compilation symbols are changed accordingly.
Additional helper macro MPD_OPTIONAL_FUNC_NODEF is added as well.
