The *zmq_pollitem_t* array must only be used by the thread which
will/is calling _zmq_poll_.
If a socket is contained in multiple *zmq_pollitem_t* arrays, each owned by a
different thread, the socket itself needs to be thead-safe (Server, Client, ...).

Like most other 0MQ objects, a poller is not thread-safe. All operations must
be called from the same thread. Otherwise, behaviour is undefined.
In addition to that, if you want to add a socket to multiple existing poller
instances, the socket itself needs to be thread-safe (Server, Client, ...).
Otherwise, behaviour is undefined.
RETURN VALUE
------------
_zmq_poller_new_ returns a valid pointer to a poller, or NULL in case of a failure.
