ae524e4beb Noux: add timeout handling to select()
Previously there was not actual timeout handling. If a select() call
set an timeout it would be set to zero instead and was always handled
as blocking i/o. While this works fine for file descriptors which
will be triggerd externally (for example vim through terminal i/o) it
does not work at all for socket descriptors and network operations in
general.

So this commit introduces proper timeout handling and changes the
behaviour of SYSCALL_SELECT so that it now returns more than just
one descriptor at a time.

noux/minimal and noux/net now depend on thread and alarm libraries.

6d8a7c0cc4 Initial version of networking support for Noux
Noux/net adds network functionality to noux. Currently most basic
network related system calls including 'accept', 'bind', 'connect',
'listen', 'recv', 'send', 'shutdown', and 'socket' are implemented by
wrapping lwip's network functions.

At the moment noux/net is rarely usable, though it is possible to
use netcat to send a message to a netcat server which listen on a
given port in noux/net.
