[WIP!] kernel: Overhaul select() implementation and surrounding code.

This change does a lot of similar things to hamishm's version, but
in a much cleaner way (or at least I think so :). About 1/5 of the
changes are from that commit, the rest are mine.

Most significantly:
 * The select hooks (with the exception of the legacy driver hooks)
   now take "uint32* events" instead of "uint8 event" as an argument,
   which specifies the events in B_EVENT_* format instead of B_SELECT_*
   format, and then is modified by the calling driver to indicate what
   events there already are. This eliminates the need to invoke the
   notifiers within the select hooks themselves, and cleans up
   a good number of code paths.
 * A number of drivers that did not properly "notify immediately"
   (the socket module is the biggest culprit here ... there are
   some open tickets about this problem, actually) now do so.
 * The select structs have been overhauled and rearranged. There is now
   - select_pool, which holds selectsyncs in a linked list, and has
     utility functions to notify all the selects in it. Its functionalites
     have been tweaked to the point where all other storage mechanisms
     for selectsyncs have been replaced with it (except in userlandfs,
     more on that later.)
   - select_set, which contains a set of selectsyncs, and is what
     select/wait_for_objects/poll use to store their select objects.
     It contains the semaphore used to wake up the waiting thread.
   - selectsync, a single select wait entry which is passed to
     one driver, and is a member of one select_set.
   Only selectsync is defined in a header, and there it is only used
   inside the kernel itself. All other modules interact with these
   via API calls.
 * select_pools now lock themselves independently of the structure they
   are a part of.
 * Double storages of selectsyncs (most notably in VFS) have been
   eliminated. This formally makes the "bottom-most" driver that
   receives the selectsync responsible for storing and dealing with
   it (this was already true in practice, so I'm not sure why VFS
   stored the selectsyncs, anyway.)

TODO/FIXME:
 * hamishm went the route of "deprecating" the fd_deselect hooks but
   not removing them. I've mostly removed them here, as events are
   now deselected directly by removing the selectsync from the
   select_pool it was added to. This breaks userlandfs (I have a
   half baked solution to fix that...) and out-of-tree/BeOS drivers
   using the old no-pool system.

   In thinking about this carefully, I'm not so sure removing the
   deselect hooks is such a good idea. It does remove an awful
   lot of overhead, but it seems like the benefits and clarity
   of having the deselect hooks outweight whatever downsides
   there may be. So depending on what reviewers think, I'll
   revise this patch to reinstate them, most likely (which will
   make the changes to userlandfs much easier, too.)

Tested with the @minimum image. Terminal works, as does curl/ping/etc.
So it seems this is at least functioning as things did before.
