Otherwise it often forgets to inform about event loop interrupts. Add a flag to the per thread context, set it in the signal function, then check / reset it in the service method.

rx flow control needs to handle the situation that it is draining from
a previous rx flow control period, and the user code reasserts rx flow
control partway through that.
The accounting for the used rx then boils down to only trimming the
rxflow buflist we were "replaying" to consume however much we managed
to deliver of that this time before the rx flow control came again.
"Normal" rx consumption is wrong in this case, since we accounted for
it entirely in the rxflow cache buflist.
The patch recognizes this situation, does the accounting in the cache
buflist, and then lies to the caller that there was no rx consumption
to be accounted for at his level.
If you're providing a unix socket service that will be proxied / served by another
process on the same machine, the unix fd permissions on the listening unix socket fd
have to be managed so only something running under the server credentials
can open the listening unix socket.
lws has been able to proxy h2 or h1 inbound connections to an
h1 onward connection for a while now. It's simple to use just
build with LWS_WITH_HTTP_PROXY and make a mount where the origin
is the onward connection details. Unix sockets can also be
used as the onward connection.
This patch extends the support to be able to also do the same for
inbound h2 or h1 ws upgrades to an h1 ws onward connection as well.
This allows you to offer completely different services in a
common URL space, including ones that connect back by ws / wss.
With SMP as soon as we add the new sockfd to the fds table, in the
case we load-balanced the fd on to a different pt, service on it
becomes live immediately and concurrently. This can lead to the
unexpected situation that while we think we're still initing the
new wsi from our thread, it can have lived out its whole life
concurrently from another service thread.
Add a volatile flag to inform the owning pt that if it wants to
service the wsi during this init window, it must wait and retry
next time around the event loop.
