Ingo Weinhold d5cbcd91b7 * Use condition variables instead of semaphores for blocking readers and
writers.
* Removed the optimization for piping data between two threads of the
  same team. This greatly simplifies the code. It seems to me the case
  is very uncommon; it could be added back later, though.
* Basically rewrote reading from and writing to the pipe:
  - A blockable writer can now write more than what is currently
    available in the ring buffer.
  - Writing respects the PIPE_BUF non-interleaving limit, though our
    headers don't seem to define PIPE_BUF anywhere.
  - Unblock writers, when the last reader is gone and send those that
    haven't written anything yet a SIGPIPE. Fixes bug #1476.
* Correctly implemented select() support. We were only notifying
  writers. We manage two separate select sync pools per pipe now: one
  for the reader end and one for the writer end.
* Reading/writing from the root dir does no longer end in KDL.
