The fdnotifier goroutine alternates between [host] epoll_wait()ing for I/O
readiness events and propagating those events through the sentry, possibly
waking task goroutines blocked in e.g. [application] epoll_wait(). Since woken
goroutines are queued on the runqueue of the waking P (cf. runtime.ready()),
these goroutines will almost always wait to execute until another OS thread
takes them (either directly via runtime.runqsteal(), or indirectly via sysmon
stealing the P and runtime.handoffp()ing it to another thread). Furthermore,
epoll_wait() is most likely to block (new events are least likely to have
arrived) shortly after a previous call (on the same epoll FD) returns events,
so this behavior utilizes the thread's OS-scheduled time slice poorly. Avoid
both of these problems by runtime.goyield()ing between goroutine wakeup and
epoll_wait().

The syscall package has been deprecated in favor of golang.org/x/sys.
Note that syscall is still used in the following places:
- pkg/sentry/socket/hostinet/stack.go: some netlink related functionalities
are not yet available in golang.org/x/sys.
- syscall.Stat_t is still used in some places because os.FileInfo.Sys() still
returns it and not unix.Stat_t.

Our "Preconditions:" blocks are very useful to determine the input invariants,
but they are bit inconsistent throughout the codebase, which makes them harder
to read (particularly cases with 5+ conditions in a single paragraph).
I've reformatted all of the cases to fit in simple rules:
1. Cases with a single condition are placed on a single line.
2. Cases with multiple conditions are placed in a bulleted list.
This format has been added to the style guide.
I've also mentioned "Postconditions:", though those are much less frequently
used, and all uses already match this style.

* Rename syncutil to sync.
* Add aliases to sync types.
* Replace existing usage of standard library sync package.
This will make it easier to swap out synchronization primitives. For example,
this will allow us to use primitives from github.com/sasha-s/go-deadlock to
check for lock ordering violations.

syscall.EPOLLET has been defined with different values on amd64 and
arm64(-0x80000000 on amd64, and 0x80000000 on arm64), while unix.EPOLLET
has been unified this value to 0x80000000(golang/go#5328). ref #63

syscall.POLL is not supported on arm64, using syscall.PPOLL

Current, doPoll copies the user struct pollfd array into a
[]syscalls.PollFD, which contains internal kdefs.FD and
waiter.EventMask types. While these are currently binary-compatible with
the Linux versions, we generally discourage copying directly to internal
types (someone may inadvertantly change kdefs.FD to uint64).
Instead, copy directly to a []linux.PollFD, which will certainly be
binary compatible. Most of syscalls/polling.go is included directly into
syscalls/linux/sys_poll.go, as it can then operate directly on
linux.PollFD. The additional syscalls.PollFD type is providing little
value.
I've also added explicit conversion functions for waiter.EventMask,
which creates the possibility of a different binary format.
