There is only one location using PIPE_EVENT_SIGNAL: to synchronize
player_command() with player_command_finished(). Use the "notify"
library instead of the event_pipe here.
event_pipe_emit_fast() is aimed for use in signal handlers: it doesn't
lock the mutex, and doesn't log on error. That makes it potentially
lossy, but for its intended use, that does not matter.
Make the event_pipe (formerly main_notify) send/receive a set of
events, with a callback for each one.
The default event PIPE_EVENT_SIGNAL does not have a callback. It
is still there for waking up the main thread, when it is waiting for
the player thread.
We are going to migrate away from the concept of notifying the main
thread. There should be events sent to it instead. This patch starts
a series to implement that.
