32220d38c0 Ensure worker threads actually exit when it is time
This includes a small refactoring to use a new enum (workqueue_reply_t)
for the return values instead of just ints.

720a9ccb2f Check for EINTR correctly on windows
(even though these are nonblocking calls and EINTR shouldn't be possible).

Also, log what error we're seing if drain_fn fails.

b3ea3c8e2f Switch order of unblocking threads and releasing the mutex.
According to POSIX, the mutex must be locked by the thread calling the signal
functions to ensure predictable scheduling behavior.

Found the issue using Helgrind which gave the warning `dubious: associated lock
is not held by any thread`.

5d2a23397a Fix a few coverity "Use after NULL check" warnings
Also remove the unit test mocks that allowed get_options() to be
NULL; that's an invariant violation for get_options().

a52e549124 Update workqueue implementation to use a single queue for the work
Previously I used one queue per worker; now I use one queue for
everyone.  The "broadcast" code is gone, replaced with an idempotent
'update' operation.

51bc0e7f3d Isolate the "socketpair or a pipe" logic for alerting main thread
This way we can use the linux eventfd extension where available.
Using EVFILT_USER on the BSDs will be a teeny bit trickier, and will
require libevent hacking.

a82604b526 Initial workqueue implemention, with a simple test.
It seems to be working, but more tuning is needed.
