Olivier Fourdan 274c600599 build: Move epoll dependency check
DragonFly and OpenBSD rely on epoll-shim to provide eventfd.

Move the check for epoll dependency to the root meson.build script so
that we can use that for the <sys/evenfd.h> check as well.

This is preparation work for the following commits, no functional change
intended at this point.

X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the following article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_server
