Summary:
Signalfd is not used in the code anymore, and given that the same functionality can be achieved
with the new MainLoop class, it's unlikely we will need it in the future. Remove all traces of
it.

Summary:
Some old linux versions do not have process_vm_readv function defined. Even older versions do not
have even the __NR_process_vm_readv syscall number. We use cmake to detect these situations and
fallback appropriately: in the first case, we can issue the syscall manually, while it the latter
case, we need to drop fast memory read support completely.
Test Plan: linux test suite passes

Summary:
Memory reads using the ptrace API need to be executed on a designated thread
and in 4-byte increments. The process_vm_read syscall has no such requirements
and it is about 50 times faster. This patch makes lldb-server use the faster
API if the target kernel supports it. Kernel support for this feature is
determined at runtime. Using process_vm_writev in the same manner is more
complicated since this syscall (unlike ptrace) respects page protection settings
and so it cannot be used to set a breakpoint, since code pages are typically
read-only. However, memory writes are not currently a performance bottleneck as
they happen much more rarely.
Test Plan: all tests continue to pass
