Previsouly, the following commands hangs:
mintty -e timeout 1 dash -c 'yes aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa | cat'
The mechanism is as follows.
When the child process (timeout) is terminated, mintty seems to stop
reading pty master even if yes or cat still alive.
If the the pipe used to transfer output from pty slave to pty master
is full due to lack of master reader, WriteFile() to the pipe is
blocked. WriteFile() cannot be canceled by cygwin signal, therefore,
pty slave hangs.
This patch avoids hanging by checking pipe space before calling
WriteFile() and prevents writing data more than space.

If ldd is run against a DLL which links to the Cygwin DLL, ldh will end
up loading the Cygwin DLL dynamically, much like cygcheck or strace.

To avoid race issues, pthread::once() uses pthread_mutex. This caused
the handle leak which was fixed by the commit 2c5433e5da. However,
this fix introduced another race issue, i.e., the mutex may be used
after it is destroyed. This patch fixes the issue. Special thanks to
Bruno Haible for discussing how to fix this.

While commit 0321fb5736 ("Cygwin: glob: convert wchar_t to wint_t")
switched the entire glob mechanism from wchar_t to wint_t, the globify
function calling glob on a DOS command line did not catch up and only
checked for the next character constituting a 16 bit wchar_t. This
broke reading surrogate pairs from incoming DOS command lines if the
string had to go through glob(3).
Check for an entire 32 bit unicode char instead.

If FILE_DIRECTORY_FILE is given, FILE_OPEN_NO_RECALL is not allowed,
otherwise NtCreateFile returns STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER.
Drop FILE_OPEN_NO_RECALL where FILE_DIRECTORY_FILE is specified.
