Description

Some of the member functions of EventDispatcher are implementation specific, for example AddEpollOut.

We need to change that specific function name and adopt more general name then we can easily support brpc to more platforms.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the EventDispatcher class in the source code, likely in `src/brpc/event dispatcher.cpp`. Identify all occurrences of the function `AddEpollOut` and understand its platform specific context. Propose a generic name such as `AddPollableFd` or `AddEvent`, then rename the function and update all references. Check the issue comments for any prior discussion on naming conventions or preferred alternatives.
