This change implements NOTE_ABSTIME flag for EVFILT_TIMER, which
specifies that the data field contains absolute time to fire the
event.
To make this useful, data member of the struct kevent must be extended
to 64bit. Using the opportunity, I also added ext members. This
changes struct kevent almost to Apple struct kevent64, except I did
not changed type of ident and udata, the later would cause serious API
incompatibilities.
The type of ident was kept uintptr_t since EVFILT_AIO returns a
pointer in this field, and e.g. CHERI is sensitive to the type
(discussed with brooks, jhb).
Unlike Apple kevent64, symbol versioning allows us to claim ABI
compatibility and still name the new syscall kevent(2). Compat shims
are provided for both host native and compat32.

It looks like EVFILT_READ and EVFILT_WRITE trigger under the same
conditions as poll()'s POLLRDNORM and POLLWRNORM as described by POSIX.
The only difference is that POLLRDNORM has to be triggered on regular
files unconditionally, whereas EVFILT_READ only triggers when not EOF.
Introduce a new flag, NOTE_FILE_POLL, that can be used to make
EVFILT_READ and EVFILT_WRITE behave identically to poll(). This flag
will be used by cloudlibc's poll() function.

Note that to cancel blocked kevent(2) call, changelist must be empty,
since we cannot cancel a call which already made changes to the
process state. And in reverse, call which only makes changes to the
kqueue state, without waiting for an event, is not cancellable. This
makes a natural usage model to migrate kqueue loop to support
cancellation, where existing single kevent(2) call must be split into
two: first uncancellable update of kqueue, then cancellable wait for
events.
Note that this is ABI-incompatible change, but it is believed that
there is no cancel-safe code that relies on kevent(2) not being a
cancellation point. Option to preserve the ABI would be to keep
kevent(2) as is, but add new call with flags to specify cancellation
behaviour, which only value seems to add complications.

kqueue(2) already supports EVFILT_PROC. Add an EVFILT_PROCDESC that
behaves the same, but operates on a procdesc(4) instead. Only implement
NOTE_EXIT for now. The nice thing about NOTE_EXIT is that it also
returns the exit status of the process, meaning that we can now obtain
this value, even if pdwait4(2) is still unimplemented.
Notes:
- Simply reuse EVFILT_NETDEV for EVFILT_PROCDESC. As both of these will
be used on totally different descriptor types, this should not clash.
- Let procdesc_kqops_event() reuse the same structure as filt_proc().
The only difference is that procdesc_kqops_event() should also be able
to deal with the case where the process was already terminated after
registration. Simply test this when hint == 0.
- Fix some style(9) issues in filt_proc() to keep it consistent with the
newly added procdesc_kqops_event().
- Save the exit status of the process in pd->pd_xstat, as we cannot pick
up the proctree_lock from within procdesc_kqops_event().

- NOTE_TRACK has never triggered a NOTE_TRACK event from the parent pid.
If NOTE_FORK is set, the listener will get a NOTE_FORK event from
the parent pid, but not a separate NOTE_TRACK event.
- Explicitly note that the event added to monitor the child process
preserves the fflags from the original event.
- Move the description of NOTE_TRACKERR under NOTE_TRACK as it is not a
bit for the user to set (which is what this list pupports to be).
Also, explicitly note that if an error occurs, the NOTE_CHILD event
will not be generated.
