Use signalfd() in io-thread
This patch reworks the IO thread to use signalfd() instead of sigtimedwait()
This will eliminate the need to use SIGIO everywhere.

Replace signalfd with signal handler/pipe. There is no way to interrupt
the CPU execution loop when a file descriptor becomes readable. This
results in a large performance regression in sparc emulation during
bootup.
This patch switches us to signal handler/pipe which was originally
suggested by Ian Jackson. The signal handler lets us interrupt the
CPU emulation loop while the write to a pipe lets us avoid the
select/signal race condition.

It turns out, we're never reading from the signalfd() which is causing it to
remain readable forever. I'll fix this up but I thought I'd commit this fix
in the interim.
