Ken Brown 0a3f77c316 Cygwin: FIFO: support opening multiple readers
Although we can have multiple readers open because of dup/fork/exec,
the current code does not support multiple readers opening a FIFO by
explicitly calling 'open'.

The main complication in supporting this is that when a blocking
reader tries to open and there's already one open, it has to check
whether there any writers open.  It can't rely on the write_ready
event, whose state hasn't changed since the first writer opened.

To fix this, add two new named events, check_write_ready_evt and
write_ready_ok_evt, and a new method, check_write_ready().

The first event signals the owner's reader thread to call
check_write_ready(), which polls the fc_handler list to check for
connected writers.  If it finds none, it checks to see if there's a
writer in the process and then sets/resets write_ready appropriately.

When check_write_ready() finishes it sets write_ready_ok_evt to signal
the reader that write_ready has been updated.

The polling is done via fifo_client_handler::pipe_state().  As long as
it's calling that function anyway, check_write_ready() updates the
state of each handler.

Also add a new lock to prevent a race if two readers are trying to
open simultaneously.
