Simplified and improved sendfile() code on Linux. The ngx_linux_sendfile() function is now used for both normal sendfile() and sendfile in threads. The ngx_linux_sendfile_thread() function was modified to use the same interface as ngx_linux_sendfile(), and is simply called from ngx_linux_sendfile() when threads are enabled. Special return code NGX_DONE is used to indicate that a thread task was posted and no further actions are needed. If number of bytes sent is less that what we were sending, we now always retry sending. This is needed for sendfile() in threads as the number of bytes we are sending might have been changed since the thread task was posted. And this is also needed for Linux 4.3+, as sendfile() might be interrupted at any time and provides no indication if it was interrupted or not (ticket #1174).
