Support the AIX operating system

[notgull]

Rust is currently moving to support AIX, see rust-lang/compiler-team#553. AIX uses a system called "pollsets" that is vaguely similar to BSD's kqueue system for efficient polling. We should probably add a backend for this system.

Alternatively, AIX could just use the current poll()-based backend. But I don't think that would be as efficient.

CC @ecnelises I can write the initial implementation, but I don't have an AIX machine to test it on. Would you be able to test it?

I'm not familiar with this crate, but I've written an initial implementation of pollset in mio (tokio-rs/mio#1620).

Unfortunately, I found different behavior between Linux and AIX when pollset_ctling a fd duplicated by fcntl, which is relied on by mio. I'm looking into it but I'm not sure that is related to this crate.

I'll have a look at this crate and try if porting pollset into this works fine.

Thank you!

This crate doesn't have a try_clone() feature, so this hopefully shouldn't be an issue.
