vcl: support for eventfd mq signaling

- support eventfd based mq signaling. Based on configuration, vcl
epoll/select can use either condvars or epoll on mq eventfds.
- add vcl support for memfd segments
- vpp explicitly registers cut-through segments with apps/vcl
- if using eventfd, make ldp allow one call to libc_epoll_create. Needed
for the message queue epfd
- update svm_queue_t to allow blocking calls with eventfd signaling.
