When `cygwin-console-helper.exe` is either missing, or corresponds to a
different Cygwin runtime, we currently wait forever while setting up
access to the pseudo console, even long after the process is gone that
was supposed to signal that it set up access to the pseudo console.
Let's handle that more gracefully: if the process exited without
signaling, we cannot use the pseudo console. In that case, let's just
fall back to not using it.

The cast to generate the return value uses a DWORD variable
as test and set value. The error case is the constant -1.
Given the type of the other half of the conditioal expression,
-1 is cast to DWORD as well.
On 64 bit, this results in the error case returning a 32 bit
-1 value which is equivalent to (ssize_t) 4294967295 rather
than (ssize_t) -1.
Add a fixing cast.

The implicit assumption seemed to be that any subsequent occurence of
the same setting in nsswitch.conf is supposed to rewrite the previous
ones completely. This was not the case if the third or any further
schema was previously defined and the last line defined less than that
(but at least 2), for example:
```
db_home: windows cygwin /myhome/%U
db_home: cygwin desc
```
Let's document this behavior as well.

If the cygdrive prefix is /, then the following happens right now:
$ ln -s /tmp/foo .
$ ls -l foo
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user group 12 Apr 15 23:44 foo -> /mnt/tmp/foo
Fix this by skipping cygdrive prefix conversion to WSL drive
prefix "/mnt", if the cygdrive prefix is just "/". There's no
satisfying way to do the right thing all the time in this case
anyway. For a description and the alternatives, see
https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin-developers/2020-April/011859.html
Also, fix a typo in a comment.

PMEM_EXTENDED_PARAMETER is defined in the local winlean.h as long
as mingw-w64 doesn't define it (in winnt.h). ntdll.h needs the
definition for declaring NtMapViewOfSectionEx. cygpath.cc and ps.cc
both include ntdll.h but not winlean.h, so they complain about the
missing definition.

So far Cygwin was jumping through hoops to restrict memory
allocation to specific regions. With the advent of VirtualAlloc2
and MapViewOfFile3 (and it's NT counterpart NtMapViewOfSectionEx),
we can skip searching for free space in the specific regions
and just call these functions and let the OS do the job more
efficiently and less racy.
Use VirtualAlloc2 on W10 1803 and later in thread stack allocation.

Windows 10 1803 introduced an extended memory API allowing
to specify memory regions allocations are to be taken off.
In preparation of using this API, define the struct
MEM_EXTENDED_PARAMETER and friends. Declare and allow to
autoload the functions VirtualAlloc2 and NtMapViewOfSectionEx.
Introduce a wincap flag has_extended_mem_api.

Unfortunately Windows doesn't understand WSL symlinks,
despite being a really easy job. NT functions trying
to access paths traversing WSL symlinks return the status
code STATUS_IO_REPARSE_TAG_NOT_HANDLED. Handle this
status code same as STATUS_OBJECT_PATH_NOT_FOUND in
symlink_info::check to align behaviour to traversing
paths with other non-NTFS type symlinks.

The descriptions of symlink handling are a bit dated, so
revamp them and add the new WSL symlink type.
Signed-off-by: Corinna Vinschen <corinna@vinschen.de>
WSL symlinks are reparse points containing a POSIX path in UTF-8.
On filesystems supporting reparse points, use this symlink type.
On other filesystems, or in case of error, fall back to the good
old plain SYSTEM file.

Commit 4a36897af3 allowed to convert /mnt/<drive> path
prefixes to Cygwin cygdrive prefixes on the fly. However,
the patch neglected WSL symlinks pointing to the /mnt
directory. Rearrange path conversion so /mnt is converted
to the cygdrive prefix path itself.

This reverts commit 082f2513c7.
Turns out, Linux as well as BSD really only wait for the smaller
number, MIN or # of requested bytes.
Signed-off-by: Corinna Vinschen <corinna@vinschen.de>
Per termios, read waits for MIN chars even if the number of requested
bytes is less. This requires to add WaitCommEvent to wait non-busily
for MIN chars prior to calling ReadFile, so, reintroduce it.

Sharing the OVERLAPPED struct and event object in there between
read and select calls in the fhandler might have been a nice
optimization way back when, but it is a dangerous, not thread-safe
approach. Fix this by creating per-fhandler, per-call OVERLAPPED
structs and event objects on demand.

- make sure event object is reset
- set read_ready to true if WaitCommEvent returns success

tcsetattr checks if the VTIME and VMIN values changed and only
calls SetCommTimeouts if so. That's a problem if tcsetattr
is supposed to set VTIME and VIMN to 0, because these are the
start values anyway. But this requires to set ReadIntervalTimeout
to MAXDWORD, which just doesn't happen.
Fix this by dropping the over-optimization of checking the old
values before calling SetCommTimeouts,
