[PATCH 2/2] alfred: Switch to epoll for socket handling

The select syscall has various problems when working with many sockets:

* only a fd less than FD_SETSIZE (usually 1024) is supported * it is necessary to register all relevant fds manually before each select call * when events are received, all the fds must be checked again the returned data

This can be solved by using epoll. File descriptors are only registered once and only the relevant file descriptors are returned. And epoll will also take care of walking in a round-robin fashion through all relevant file descriptors in case a lot of file descriptors could be returned by the kernel.
