Fix: Racy event validation in tests

This pattern is fundamentally racy:

$TESTAPP_BIN $NR_ITER $NR_USEC_WAIT >/dev/null 2>&1 &

[...]

while [ -n "$(pidof $TESTAPP_BIN)" ]; do
   sleep 1
done
pass "Wait for application end"

[...]

tracing_teardown

validate_trace $EXACT_EVENT_COUNT

It is possible that the check for "pidof $TESTAPP_BIN" occurs _before_
the execve() of the applications (starting the applications in background
with & is basically a clone() + execve()). The consequence is that the check
succeed, never waiting for any applications to finish and then the tracing
sessions are prematurely teared down. Thus the resulting trace contains only
some events. We then validate for a fixed number of events and thus the test
fails caused by this racy scheduling situation.

The fix is to start the applications in foreground instead of background.

Backported to glibc 2.8

This patch enables lttng-tools to run on top of glibc 2.8.
Overall it fixes 2 things:
1. No support for epoll_create1(..) and EPOLL_CLOEXEC.
2. No support for htobe/betoh

For 1, we revert back to epoll_create() and then sets CLOEXEC through
fcntl instead.

For 2, we define htobe/betoh as part of the compat/endian.h and make
sure that any users of those functions actually include compat/endian.h
instead of implicit include of system endian.h

Fix: add JUL filter to UST event on logger_name

This is to avoid having the JUL event copied in each sessions. See
ticket description for more details.

To achieve this, JUL filtering has been added to fix that bug.

Fixes #773
