    Don’t include sys/select.h from sys/types.h.
    
    This is supposedly present for BSD compatibility, but the current
    generation of BSDs is not consistent about it: FreeBSD does, OpenBSD
    doesn’t, NetBSD exposes only fd_set and the FD_* macros.  Programs
    that need to wait for any of multiple I/O events have several
    alternatives to select nowadays, so I think it makes sense to expose
    select only to programs that specifically want it.
    
    Only a few places within our own code are affected.  A few test
    programs need to include sys/select.h explicitly, as does rpc/svc.h.
    sysdeps/nptl/thread_db.h needs to declare sigset_t, and
    sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pselect.c was including sys/poll.h instead of
    sys/select.h, which is probably a copy-and-paste error.  sys/socket.h
    needs to forward-declare struct timespec under __USE_GNU, because
    recvmmsg has a struct timespec * argument; I’m open to the possibility
    of having it fully declare struct timespec.
    
    I considered taking sys/select.h out of sys/time.h as well, but POSIX
    not only explicitly allows this inclusion, it requires sys/time.h to
    declare almost everything that sys/select.h declares.  It doesn’t seem
    worth creating another bits header just to prevent sys/time.h from
    declaring pselect, sigset_t, and struct timespec.
    
    	* posix/sys/types.h: Don’t include sys/select.h.
    	* scripts/check-obsolete-constructs.py: Remove whitelist entry
    	for sys/types.h -> sys/select.h.  Adjust commentary re
    	sys/time.h -> sys/select.h.
    
    	* socket/sys/socket.h: When __USE_GNU, forward-declare struct timespec.
    	* misc/tst-fdset.c, nptl/tst-cancel4.c, scripts/check-c++-types.sh
    	* sunrpc/rpc/svc.h: Include sys/select.h.
    	* sysdeps/nptl/thread_db.h: Include bits/types/sigset_t.h.
    	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pselect.c: Include sys/select.h,
    	not sys/poll.h.
