Carl Mastrangelo 1dff107de1 Don't re-arm timerfd each epoll_wait (#7816)
Motivation:
The Epoll transport checks to see if there are any scheduled tasks
before entering epoll_wait, and resets the timerfd just before.
This causes an extra syscall to timerfd_settime before doing any
actual work.   When scheduled tasks aren't added frequently, or
tasks are added with later deadlines, this is unnecessary.

Modification:
Check the *deadline* of the peeked task in EpollEventLoop, rather
than the *delay*.  If it hasn't changed since last time, don't
re-arm the timer

Result:
About 2us faster on gRPC RTT 50pct latency benchmarks.
