epoll or kqueue
* fix reading stdin as input (-f option to scamper) when using
epoll (catch EPOLLHUP)

* HEADSUP: if you previously used -e pidfile to record the pid of a
running scamper process, there is a good chance that the pidfile is
owned by root. scamper now attempts to write this file using the uid
that started scamper, and will not be able to write it if scamper is
not started by root (it should not be, rather the scamper binary
should be setuid root). Please delete the existing pidfile, or change
its ownership, prior to restarting scamper, or scamper will not start.
* scamper:
* write a process ID that the user that started scamper can kill
in the pidfile when using privsep.
* when using privsep, exit the unprivileged process if the privileged
process exits (is killed)
* run as real uid from the start of scamper, for both privsep and
not-privsep.
* fix bug where attempting to open an unsupported datalink would
leave a freed scamper_fd_t in the fd_tree and fd_list, leading to
a crash.
* fix double free triggered when a user provides an invalid dealias
command.
* fix memory leak if the payload was specified twice to ping or trace
* rework pollfunc selection logic, use kqueue/epoll by default.
* remove _malloc_options = "AJ" as this only works on unsupported
versions of FreeBSD.
* add additional paramaters to attach command to allow the user
to override list and cycle parameters, documented in manual page.
* catch EAGAIN/EINTR from select/kqueue/epoll to allow gdb to attach
and detach without flagging errors.
* for DNS replies for host command, record reply flags and rcode.
* add support for SOA and NS queries in host.

- scamper:
* use a random source port / ICMP ID in trace if -s 0.
* better parallelize pings to a single destination that use
udp-dport, tcp-ack-sport, or tcp-syn-sport probe methods.
* document default value of source port consistently for all
measurements that take a source port parameter in the man page.
- sc_wartscat:
* print useful error messages when encountering an error.

/etc/resolv.conf, or no nameserver lines in an /etc/resolv.conf
but a measurement or scamper-internal task wants to resolve a
name

- warts/json:
* in JSON output for ping, print the TCP/UDP src/dst ports or
ICMP id/seq used in individual probe packets,

probes (or sequence number in SYN packets). do not randomly
generate sequence and ack values for each TCP ping.
* rework options handling to allow for long long values.
* set the window size in TCP probes to 65535, instead of advertising a
