Temporary hotfix until we have integrated avahi into our new event
loop.

Implement an event loop without GLib.

Fixes regression from commit 018f4155.

Prepare for migrating away from GLib.

Unsigned and portable.

Handle timeout internally.

Simplify the API, don't use GLib specific integer type.

Remove a GLib dependencies from class EventLoop and DatabaseLock.

Replaces io_thread_call().  This approach is more generic and easier
to use due to std::function.

Track which thread runs the EventLoop and provide a check whether
we're currently inside.

Prepare for adding more code.

Merge with CommitEventFlags().

Migrate all callers to use Path directly, instead of doing the
conversion in each caller.

ReusableBuffer is more generic.
