[LTP] [PATCH v2 2/2] poll: add test for POLLNVAL on invalid fd

[Jinseok Kim <always.starving0@gmail.com>]

Add a poll() test to verify that POLLNVAL is reported for invalid file
descriptors.

The test closes one end of a pipe and passes the closed descriptor to
poll(). poll() is expected to return successfully and set POLLNVAL in
revents.

This verifies poll() handling of invalid file descriptors without
triggering an error return.
