Introduce latches. A latch is a boolean variable, with the capability to

wait until it is set. Latches can be used to reliably wait until a signal
arrives, which is hard otherwise because signals don't interrupt select()
on some platforms, and even when they do, there's race conditions.

On Unix, latches use the so called self-pipe trick under the covers to
implement the sleep until the latch is set, without race conditions. On
Windows, Windows events are used.

Use the new latch abstraction to sleep in walsender, so that as soon as
a transaction finishes, walsender is woken up to immediately send the WAL
to the standby. This reduces the latency between master and standby, which
is good.

Preliminary work by Fujii Masao. The latch implementation is by me, with
helpful comments from many people.

* unix_latch.c
* Routines for inter-process latches
*
* A latch is a boolean variable, with operations that let you to sleep
* until it is set. A latch can be set from another process, or a signal
* handler within the same process.
*
* The latch interface is a reliable replacement for the common pattern of
* using pg_usleep() or select() to wait until a signal arrives, where the
* signal handler sets a global variable. Because on some platforms, an
* incoming signal doesn't interrupt sleep, and even on platforms where it
* does there is a race condition if the signal arrives just before
* entering the sleep, the common pattern must periodically wake up and
* poll the global variable. pselect() system call was invented to solve
* the problem, but it is not portable enough. Latches are designed to
* overcome these limitations, allowing you to sleep without polling and
* ensuring a quick response to signals from other processes.
*
* There are two kinds of latches: local and shared. A local latch is
* initialized by InitLatch, and can only be set from the same process.
* A local latch can be used to wait for a signal to arrive, by calling
* SetLatch in the signal handler. A shared latch resides in shared memory,
* and must be initialized at postmaster startup by InitSharedLatch. Before
* a shared latch can be waited on, it must be associated with a process
* with OwnLatch. Only the process owning the latch can wait on it, but any
* process can set it.
*
* There are three basic operations on a latch:
*
* SetLatch - Sets the latch
* ResetLatch - Clears the latch, allowing it to be set again
* WaitLatch - Waits for the latch to become set
*
* The correct pattern to wait for an event is:
*
* for (;;)
* {
* ResetLatch();
* if (work to do)
* Do Stuff();
*
* WaitLatch();
* }
*
* It's important to reset the latch *before* checking if there's work to
* do. Otherwise, if someone sets the latch between the check and the
* ResetLatch call, you will miss it and Wait will block.
*
* To wake up the waiter, you must first set a global flag or something
* else that the main loop tests in the "if (work to do)" part, and call
* SetLatch *after* that. SetLatch is designed to return quickly if the
* latch is already set.
*
*
* Implementation
* --------------
*
* The Unix implementation uses the so-called self-pipe trick to overcome
* the race condition involved with select() and setting a global flag
* in the signal handler. When a latch is set and the current process
* is waiting for it, the signal handler wakes up the select() in
* WaitLatch by writing a byte to a pipe. A signal by itself doesn't
* interrupt select() on all platforms, and even on platforms where it
* does, a signal that arrives just before the select() call does not
* prevent the select() from entering sleep. An incoming byte on a pipe
* however reliably interrupts the sleep, and makes select() to return
* immediately if the signal arrives just before select() begins.
*
* When SetLatch is called from the same process that owns the latch,
* SetLatch writes the byte directly to the pipe. If it's owned by another
* process, SIGUSR1 is sent and the signal handler in the waiting process
* writes the byte to the pipe on behalf of the signaling process.
