Josef Söntgen 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.

This directory contains ports of popular 3rd-party applications to Genode.

The 'ports' repository follows the line of the 'libports' repository.
For instructions about downloading and building 3rd-party applications,
please refer to 'libports/README'.


Dependencies from other repositories
------------------------------------

Application provided by the 'ports' repository typically expect a rich
runtime environment, including shared libraries provided by the 'libports'
repository. Hence, 'ports' depends on 'libports'. Furthermore, applications
may require additional repositories. For example, the Arora web browser depends
on the 'qt4' repository.
