Since the previous complex select function with initial support for
non-socket file descriptors, did not actually work correctly for
Console handles, this change simplifies the whole procedure by using
an internal waiting thread for the stdin console handle.
The previous implementation made it continuously trigger for the stdin
handle if it was being redirected to a parent process instead of
an actual Console input window.
This approach supports actual Console input handles as well as
anonymous Pipe handles which are used during input redirection.
It depends on the fact that ReadFile supports trying to read zero bytes
which makes it wait for the handle to become ready for reading.
WINSOCK only:
Since FD_CLOSE is only signaled once, it may trigger at the same
time as FD_READ. Data actually being available makes it impossible
to detect that the connection was closed by checking that recv returns
zero. Another recv attempt could block the connection if it was
not closed. This workaround abuses exceptfds in conjunction with
readfds to signal that the connection has actually closed.
The new read and write wrapper functions support reading from stdin
and writing to stdout/stderr on Windows by using the appropriate
Windows API functions and data types.
This commit fixes support for sockets that are ready to accept
a new connection and have previously been put into listening mode.
It also includes changes which are the result of investigation
regarding Windows STDIN. These changes are the preparation for further
improvements regarding support for reading data from STDIN on Windows.
Open issue: WaitForMultipleObjectsEx does not support PIPE handles
which are returned by GetStdHandle while running without a GUI.

WinSock select() does not support standard file descriptors,
it can only check SOCKETs. The following function is an attempt
to create a select() function with support for other handles.
Some torture tests left FTP test server in an unresponsive state, resulting
in torture tests that actually completed following unexpected code paths.
Changes in this commit solely address this issue and some adjustments for
ftpserver.pl logging relative to data channel establishment and tear down.
Pending NODATACONN relative adjustments reserved for a further commit.
