* ccan/container_of/container_of.h (container_of_or_null): added
[ccan 7ec5b8e06b2fd5fa98b1fcde1158c286d2d429d8] (David Gibson)
It's quite common to have a pointer which could be either a pointer to a
structure member, or NULL. This needs special casing with container_of(),
or it will convert NULL into something strange.
This patch adds container_of_or_null(), which will return NULL if passed
(an appropriately typed) NULL, or the containining structure as
container_of() otherwise.

A doubly-linked list for tracking living threads guarantees
constant-time insert/delete performance with no corner cases of a
hash table. I chose this ccan implementation of doubly-linked
lists over the BSD sys/queue.h implementation since:
1) insertion and removal are both branchless
2) locality is improved if a struct may be a member of multiple lists
(0002 patch in Feature 9632 will introduce a secondary list
for waiting FDs)
This also increases cache locality during iteration: improving
performance in a new IO#close benchmark with many sleeping threads
while still scanning the same number of threads.

[ruby-core:61871][Feature 9632 (part 1)]
Apologies for the size of this commit, but I think a good
doubly-linked list will be useful for future features, too.
This may be used to add ordering to a container_of-based hash
table to preserve compatibility if required (e.g. feature 9614).
