uv_if_indextoname() is used to convert an IPv6 scope_id
to an interface identifier string such as %eth0 or %lo.
uv_if_indextoiid() returns an IPv6 interface identifier.
On Unix it calls uv_if_indextoname(). On Windows it uses
snprintf() to return the numeric interface identifier as
a string.

Cygwin and MSYS2 are POSIX layers implemented on top of Windows.
Use our POSIX `poll(2)` implementation of our poll abstraction.
For most other components we already have dedicated sources
implementing them in terms of APIs available on Cygwin or
providing non-implementations of components not supported.
This leaves only three components that need Cygwin-specific
implementations:
* uv_uptime: implement using sysinfo
* uv_resident_set_memory: add a placeholder returning UV_ENOSYS
* uv_cpu_info: add a placeholder returning UV_ENOSYS
Update our test suite to account for features not available
due to Cygwin platform limitations or our placeholders.

Passing or returning structs as values makes life hard for people that
work with libuv through a foreign function interface. Switch to a
pointer-based approach.
Fixes#684.
This commit changes the libuv API to return error codes directly rather
than storing them in a loop-global field.
A code snippet like this one:
if (uv_foo(loop) < 0) {
uv_err_t err = uv_last_error(loop);
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
}
Should be rewritten like this:
int err = uv_foo(loop);
if (err < 0)
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
The rationale for this change is that it should make creating bindings
for other languages a lot easier: dealing with struct return values is
painful with most FFIs and often downright buggy.
