examples: Don't call select() to sleep on windows

Browse Source 
Windows does not support using select() for sleeping without a dummy
socket. Instead use Windows' Sleep() and sleep for 100ms which is the
minimum suggested value in the curl_multi_fdset() doc.

Prior to this change the multi examples would exit prematurely since
select() would error instead of sleeping when called without an fd.
