Add a new 'struct epoll' to the userspace eventpoll interface. Buffers
supplied to read() & write() calls on eventpolls are interpreted as
arrays of this structure. The new structure's only functional difference
from epoll_event is it also holds the associated file descriptor (needed
for write() to properly create events but useful information in general).
Also define the ioctl() command macros to set & get the timeout of an
eventpoll.
