Currently (OpenBSD 6.2) the kqueu implementation on
opnebsd does not work properly for EOF conditions when
using EV_DISPATCH, so we use the EV_ONESHOT fallback there.

Implementation of true asynchronous signaling between processes
|
|
All uses of async threads in the built-in drivers have been
replaced with dirty IO, so it no longer makes sense to leave the
default at 10.
|
|
Communication between Erlang processes has conceptually always been
performed through asynchronous signaling. The runtime system
implementation has however previously preformed most operation
synchronously. In a system with only one true thread of execution, this
is not problematic (often the opposite). In a system with multiple threads
of execution (as current runtime system implementation with SMP support)
it becomes problematic. This since it often involves locking of structures
when updating them which in turn cause resource contention. Utilizing
true asynchronous communication often avoids these resource contention
issues.
The case that triggered this change was contention on the link lock due
to frequent updates of the monitor trees during communication with a
frequently used server. The signal order delivery guarantees of the
language makes it hard to change the implementation of only some signals
to use true asynchronous signaling. Therefore the implementations
of (almost) all signals have been changed.
Currently the following signals have been implemented as true
asynchronous signals:
- Message signals
- Exit signals
- Monitor signals
- Demonitor signals
- Monitor triggered signals (DOWN, CHANGE, etc)
- Link signals
- Unlink signals
- Group leader signals
All of the above already defined as asynchronous signals in the
language. The implementation of messages signals was quite
asynchronous to begin with, but had quite strict delivery constraints
due to the ordering guarantees of signals between a pair of processes.
The previously used message queue partitioned into two halves has been
replaced by a more general signal queue partitioned into three parts
that service all kinds of signals. More details regarding the signal
queue can be found in comments in the erl_proc_sig_queue.h file.
The monitor and link implementations have also been completely replaced
in order to fit the new asynchronous signaling implementation as good
as possible. More details regarding the new monitor and link
implementations can be found in the erl_monitor_link.h file.

Fix file:change_group/change_owner

A get_map_elements instruction that has a literal map operand
would never be translated to a i_get_map_element instruction.
That would be a problem for the following instruction:
get_map_elements Fail #{} {x,0}, {x,1}
Since the key is not a literal, get_map_element must be used,
since get_map_elements requires that a hash value can be
calculated for each element.
When the instruction is translated to i_get_map_element, the
hash value will be set to 0 and an assertion will trigger in
the debug build.

It wasn't possible to change group/owner separately, and our test
suite lacked coverage for that.

I was running this code in shell and expected it to take default `self()` meta tracer,
and start tracing `erlang:put/2`.
```
F = fun F() -> timer:sleep(5000), erlang:get(unique_field), erlang:put(unique_field, 123), F() end.
erlang:trace_pattern({erlang, put, 2}, [{['$1', '_'], [{'==', '$1', unique_field}], []}], [global]).
erlang:trace_pattern({erlang, get, 1}, [{['_'], [], [{trace, [], [call, timestamp]}]}], [meta]).
Pid = spawn(F).
```
But tracing didn't start:
```
6> flush().
Shell got {trace_ts,<0.70.0>,call,
{erlang,get,[unique_field]},
{1521,118606,753838}}
Shell got {trace_ts,<0.70.0>,call,
{erlang,get,[unique_field]},
{1521,118611,754798}}
Shell got {trace_ts,<0.70.0>,call,
{erlang,get,[unique_field]},
{1521,118616,755705}}
ok
7> erlang:trace_info(Pid, flags).
{flags,[]}
```
Turns out that I had false expectations, that `{trace, _, _}` would enable tracing on that process, inheriting meta tracer process as consumer of trace messages.
Instead it tried to take tracer from executing process (which is pointed out in docs). But there was none, so no tracing was started and flags were simply ignored (which is not that obvious from docs).
Updated docs to point out that there are cases when flags would be simply ignored, and no tracing would start.
