bb63e99d78 Page allocator moved from pools to IO loops.
The resource pool system is highly hierarchical and keeping spare pages
in pools leads to unnecessarily complex memory management.

Loops have a flat hiearchy, at least for now, and it is therefore much
easier to keep care of pages, especially in cases of excessive virtual memory
fragmentation.

94eb0858c2 Converting the former BFD loop to a universal IO loop and protocol loop.
There is a simple universal IO loop, taking care of events, timers and
sockets. Primarily, one instance of a protocol should use exactly one IO
loop to do all its work, as is now done in BFD.

Contrary to previous versions, the loop is now launched and cleaned by
the nest/proto.c code, allowing for a protocol to just request its own
loop by setting the loop's lock order in config higher than the_bird.

It is not supported nor checked if any protocol changed the requested
lock order in reconfigure. No protocol should do it at all.
