The OSE port is no longer supported and this commit removed it
and any changes related to it. The things that were general
improvements have been left in the code.

The old time API is based on erlang:now/0. The major issue with
erlang:now/0 is that it was intended to be used for so many
unrelated things. This tied these unrelated operations together
and unnecessarily caused performance, scalability as well as
accuracy, and precision issues for operations that do not need
to have such issues. The new API spreads different functionality
over multiple functions in order to improve on this.
The new API consists of a number of new BIFs:
- erlang:convert_time_unit/3
- erlang:monotonic_time/0
- erlang:monotonic_time/1
- erlang:system_time/0
- erlang:system_time/1
- erlang:time_offset/0
- erlang:time_offset/1
- erlang:timestamp/0
- erlang:unique_integer/0
- erlang:unique_integer/1
- os:system_time/0
- os:system_time/1
and a number of extensions of existing BIFs:
- erlang:monitor(time_offset, clock_service)
- erlang:system_flag(time_offset, finalize)
- erlang:system_info(os_monotonic_time_source)
- erlang:system_info(time_offset)
- erlang:system_info(time_warp_mode)
- erlang:system_info(time_correction)
- erlang:system_info(start_time)
See the "Time and Time Correction in Erlang" chapter of the
ERTS User's Guide for more information.

The inet driver for OSE has to handle signals instead of selects
and thus the wrappers for ready_input/output are a little bit
different. However the majority of the inet code remains the same.

As any scheduler process can consume any message we have
to make sure that the message is owned by the scheduler
before returning it in erl_drv_ose_get_signal.

This new API has less impact on the check_io code and
also removes the callback from ErlDrvEntry. The downside
is that you have to give the resolve function when creating
each event.
Also the mode if the resolve was removed as this mimics the
win32 code and decreases complexity.

The interface of this module is made to be as generic as possible
in order for other IPC mechanisms to mimic it and allow porting of
code between different os:es.

This port has support for both non-smp and smp.
It contains a new way to do io checking in which erts_poll_wait
receives the payload of the polled entity. This has implications
for all linked-in drivers.
