Event Loop guide article improvement
I think the part about pending callbacks and poll phases is quite ambiguous in this article, I had confusion between these 2 phases, I read many articles and watched many videos but almost all of them contradict or give wrong information about these 2 event loop phases in particular, or sometimes they deal with it as one phase. After reading nodejs guide, and libuv design overview, I came to a conclusion about the distinction between these 2 phases, and I want to make sure if I got that right, and whether the current guide needs more elaboration. Here is what I understood: Most of the I/O related callbacks are executed in this poll phase. However, some other callbacks (like TCP error handling callback) will be deferred by re-queueing them to the queue of 'pending callbacks` phase which will be responsible for executing them in the next iteration of the event loop.
