xread: poll on non blocking fds
The man page of read(2) says: EAGAIN The file descriptor fd refers to a file other than a socket and has been marked nonblocking (O_NONBLOCK), and the read would block. EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK The file descriptor fd refers to a socket and has been marked nonblocking (O_NONBLOCK), and the read would block. POSIX.1-2001 allows either error to be returned for this case, and does not require these constants to have the same value, so a portable application should check for both possibilities. If we get an EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK the fd must have set O_NONBLOCK. As the intent of xread is to read as much as possible either until the fd is EOF or an actual error occurs, we can ease the feeder of the fd by not spinning the whole time, but rather wait for it politely by not busy waiting. We should not care if the call to poll failed, as we're in an infinite loop and can only get out with the correct read().
