david 5008078dac Add a non-blocking workaround for pcaps that buffer packets.
This is designed to solve the following problem: On Solaris 10 (maybe other
platforms), doing a select on a pcap fd works, in that it returns true when
there are frames available to be read. However, after finding the fd selectable
and calling pcap_dispatch (or pcap_next, etc.), libpcap may read more than one
frame and buffer them internally. This means that later calls to select will
return false. So there may be a frame to be read, but you can't know without
calling pcap_dispatch to check, and that blocks indefinitely (on Solaris) if
you're wrong.

The way this works is that we do a non-blocking read on the pcap fd to see if
there is anything available. If not, we do a select with a timeout as usual.
(The select is to enforce the timeout and prevent spinning CPU by repeatedly
trying non-blocking reads.)

I don't know if this phenomenon affects other platforms than Solaris 10
(more specifically, platforms using DLPI for libpcap). This same thing may be
safe or necessary on other platforms. But I have limited it to Solaris for now.
Solaris 11 uses BPF, not DLPI, for libpcap, but we can unconditionally follow
this code path on Solaris because BPF pcap fds can't be selected on.
