vm*: doubly-linked list from ccan to manage vm->living_threads
A doubly-linked list for tracking living threads guarantees
constant-time insert/delete performance with no corner cases of a
hash table. I chose this ccan implementation of doubly-linked
lists over the BSD sys/queue.h implementation since:
insertion and removal are both branchless
locality is improved if a struct may be a member of multiple lists
(0002 patch in Feature 9632 will introduce a secondary list
for waiting FDs)
This also increases cache locality during iteration: improving
performance in a new IO#close benchmark with many sleeping threads
while still scanning the same number of threads.
vm_thread_close 1.762
vm_core.h (rb_vm_t): list_head and counter for living_threads
(rb_thread_t): vmlt_node for living_threads linkage
(rb_vm_living_threads_init): new function wrapper
(rb_vm_living_threads_insert): ditto
(rb_vm_living_threads_remove): ditto
vm.c (rb_vm_living_threads_foreach): new function wrapper
thread.c (terminate_i, thread_start_func_2, thread_create_core,
thread_fd_close_i, thread_fd_close): update to use new APIs
Apologies for the size of this commit, but I think a good
doubly-linked list will be useful for future features, too.
This may be used to add ordering to a container_of-based hash
table to preserve compatibility if required (e.g. feature 9614).
