polling thread is never joined

Thanks again for your feedback.
You're right, we need to join the polling thread, but the code as it is needs refactoring.
Active sockets and sockets involved in a deferred operation will be closed automatically on erlzmq:term, but passive sockets are not handled this way yet, so there's still the risk having zmq_term blocking.
We need to keep track of passive sockets so that we can close them on erlzmq:term too, and safely join the polling thread without risking blocking the VM.

Ok, I am glad that I wasn't missing something. I am happy to work on refactoring the passive socket code. Is anybody else currently working on it whose feet I might step on?
