84c298465f Decoupling loops from threads to allow fixed thread count
On large configurations, too many threads would spawn with one thread
per loop. Therefore, threads may now run multiple loops at once. The
thread count is configurable and may be changed during run. All threads
are spawned on startup.

This change helps with memory bloating. BIRD filters need large
temporary memory blocks to store their stack and also memory management
keeps its hot page storage per-thread.

Known bugs:
* Thread autobalancing is not yet implemented.
* Low latency loops are executed together with standard loops.

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.
