Selector abstract base class.
A selector supports registering file objects to be monitored for specific
I/O events.
A file object is a file descriptor or any object with a `fileno()` method.
An arbitrary object can be attached to the file object, which can be used
for example to store context information, a callback, etc.
A selector can use various implementations (select(), poll(), epoll()...)
depending on the platform. The default `Selector` class uses the most
efficient implementation on the current platform.
