Eelco Dolstra 49fe9592a4 nix-daemon: Use a thread instead of SIGPOLL to catch client disconnects
The thread calls poll() to wait until a HUP (or other error event)
happens on the client connection. If so, it sends SIGINT to the main
thread, which is then cleaned up normally. This is much nicer than
messing around with SIGPOLL.
