Crate fd_reactor

A reactor for handling file descriptors in a background thread.

Implementation Notes

• The reactor’s background thread is spawned on the first time that the reactor handle is fetched.
• Each file descriptor registers an interest to listen for.
• On registering a new file descriptor, a pipe is used to interrupt the poll operation.
