feat: implement a Selector for channels (#8150)
This PR is a follow up to #8055 and implements a Selector for
`Std.Channel` in order to allow
 multiplexing using channels.

There is one subtlety to the implementation: Suppose we are in a
situation where we run `select` in a loop on two channels. One of the
channels is always quiet while the other has data available occasionally
(however not always as this would trigger the `tryFn` fast path and hide
the issue). In this situation the select receivers that are enqueued on
the silent channel would usually just remain there indefinitely as
nothing ever happens, causing a memleak. To avoid this we want to make a
channel select clean up after itself, even if it fails.

In an imperative programming language we could implement the receive
queue as a doubly linked list and simply make each receive select
maintain a pointer to its element in the queue and then remove itself in
`O(1)` upon failure. As that is not possible in Lean trivially we
decided to go for another approach for now: simply filter the queue for
selects that have failed in `unregisterFn`. While this approach is
`O(n)` we expect the amount of receivers enqueued on a channel to not be
terribly large and thus this to be a reasonably fast operation compared
to the remaining overhead. If it ever ends up becoming an issue, we
could switch to an approach that uses a `TreeMap` with numbered
receivers instead at a certain wait queue size and go to `O(log(n))`.
