According to POSIX and the Linux man page, select(2) is supposed to
report read ready if a file is at EOF. In the case of a FIFO, this
means that the pipe is empty and there are no writers. But there
seems to be an undocumented exception, observed on Linux and other
platforms: If no writer has ever been opened, then select(2) does not
report read ready. This can happen if a reader is opened with
O_NONBLOCK before any writers have opened.
This commit makes Cygwin consistent with those other platforms by
introducing a special EOF test, fhandler_fifo::select_hit_eof, which
returns false if there's never been a writer opened.
To implement this we use a new variable '_writer_opened' in the FIFO's
shared memory, which is set to 1 the first time a writer opens. New
methods writer_opened() and set_writer_opened() are used to test and
set this variable.

This reverts commit 0390cc85727b0165b5cdfcff7578cac94ae3371d.
There's no indication what exact situation this patch was supposed to
solve, and local testing doesn't show any such problems. However, this
patch itself introduced a new problem, as outlined by

- When open fails, archetype stored in archetypes[] is not cleared.
This causes double free when next open fail. This patch fixes the
issue.

32 bit Cygwin still exports function calls to support old applications.
E. g., when switching from 16 to 32 bit uid/gid values, new function
like getuid32 have been added and the old getuid function still only
provides 16 bit values. Newly built applications using getuid are
actually calling getuid32.
However, this link magic isn't performed inside Cygwin itself, so if
newlib functions call getuid, they actually call the old getuid, not
the new getuid32. This leads to truncated uid/gid values.
https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2022-January/250453.html reports
how this leads to problems in posix_spawn.
Fix this temporarily. i686 support will go away soon in Cygwin and the
fix can be dropped.

get_posix_access() creates DEF_*_OBJ aclent_t entries from Windows ACEs
with INHERIT flags set, independent of the file type. These flags only
make sense on directory objects, but certain Windows functions don't
check the file type and allow INHERIT ACE flags even on non-directories.
As a fix, make sure to ignore the INHERIT flags on non-directory ACLs
and don't propagate the matching DEF_*_OBJ aclent_t entries to callers.

NtQueryInformationProcess(ProcessHandleInformation) can return
STATUS_SUCCESS with invalid handle data for certain processes
("minimal" processes on Windows 10). This can cause a crash when
there's an attempt to access that data. Fix that by setting
NumberOfHandles to zero before calling NtQueryInformationProcess.

- This patch fixes the bug that input is wrongly sent to io_handle_nat
rather than io_handle when neither read() nor select() is called
after the cygwin app is started from non-cygwin app. This happens
only if psuedo console is disabled.

- When symlink_info::check() is called with the path having drive
letter and UNC path is mounted to the drive, the path is replaced
with UNC path. With this patch, UNC path prefix is converted back
to drive letter. This fixes the issue:
