perf bench: Add epoll parallel epoll_wait benchmark
This program benchmarks concurrent epoll_wait(2) for file descriptors
that are monitored with with EPOLLIN along various semantics, by a
single epoll instance. Such conditions can be found when using
single/combined or multiple queuing when load balancing.
Each thread has a number of private, nonblocking file descriptors,
referred to as fdmap. A writer thread will constantly be writing to the
fdmaps of all threads, minimizing each threads's chances of epoll_wait
not finding any ready read events and blocking as this is not what we
want to stress. Full details in the start of the C file.

[ Applied above fixup as per Davidlohr's request ]
[ Use inttypes.h to print rlim_t fields, fixing the build on Alpine Linux / musl libc ]
[ Check if eventfd() is available, i.e. if HAVE_EVENTFD is defined ]
