Motivation:
Native.epollCreate(...) fails on systems using a kernel < 2.6.27 / glibc < 2.9 because it uses epoll_create1(...) without checking if it is present
Modifications:
Check if epoll_create1(...) exists abd if not fall back to use epoll_create(...)
Result:
Works even on systems with kernel < 2.6.27 / glibc < 2.9
This also does factor out some logic of ChannelOutboundBuffer. Mainly we not need nioBuffers() for many
transports and also not need to copy from heap to direct buffer. So this functionality was moved to
NioSocketChannelOutboundBuffer. Also introduce a EpollChannelOutboundBuffer which makes use of
memory addresses for all the writes to reduce GC pressure
This transport use JNI (C) to directly make use of epoll in Edge-Triggered mode for maximal performance on Linux. Beside this it also support using TCP_CORK and produce less GC then the NIO transport using JDK NIO.
It only builds on linux and skip the build if linux is not used. The transport produce a jar which contains all needed .so files for 32bit and 64 bit. The user only need to include the jar as dependency as usually
to make use of it and use the correct classes.
This includes also some cleanup of @trustin
