Small cleanup/improvement to epoll creation

[David Lloyd]

Since glibc 2.9 (released at the end of 2008), there has been an
improved function for EPoll creation.  I would suggest the following
cleanup, which uses the "epoll_create1" function to set the FD to
close-on-exec (which is generally just good practice AFAICT, even if
it's not exactly one that has been universally adopted by OpenJDK thus
far).  It's more useful than passing in an ignored integer at any
rate.

Here's the suggested change:

diff --git a/src/java.base/linux/native/libnio/ch/EPoll.c
