  In my occasional and continuing campaign against realloc, this patch
changes event-loop.cc to use std::vector to keep track of pollfd
objects.  Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 38.

This LGTM.

I almost commented to say that the `num_fds` could be removed, that you
could use the vector size instead.  But then I saw that num_fds is also
used as the max fd number when using select.  I then saw that I had an
old draft patch that would remove the select code in event-loop.cc and
elsewhere.  The problem is that I don't remember the rationale for
starting such a patch.  Probably that all platforms we support have
something better than select for event handling, but I don't know for
sure.  But it would certainly help clean things up if we could remove
the select support.

A noble quest surely
