Since on Windows HANDLEs are not the same as file descriptors,
confusing the two meant that almost all APIs in libuv had to go through
a thin compatibility layer, adding needless complication.
This removes that layer of external indirection and instead
works with the native Win32 API directly.

The cygwin runtime library fails to connect a socket client to a
listening server within the same thread. Test cases that use
this approach hang while waiting for the connection to complete.
This can be reproduced independent of libuv in a simple example
using both socket/bind/listen and socket/connect in a single
thread.
Avoid this problem in our test suite by skipping such tests on cygwin.

After 4ed29c2498 got fixed, when a CRT fd
is handed off to a pipe handle using uv_pipe_open libuv will close it
properly, so it's an error to do so ourselves.

libuv has multiple functions which return buffers. Make them consistent
with the following rules: the returned size *does not* include the null
byte, but the buffer *is* null terminated.
There is only one exception to the above: Linux abstract sockets,
because null bytes are not used as string terminators in those.

This implements locking around the blocking call to ReadFile to get
around a Windows kernel bug where a blocking ReadFile operation on a
stream can deadlock the thread. This allows uv_read_stop to immediately
cancel a pending IO operation, and allows uv_pipe_getsockname to
"pause" any pending read (from libuv) while it retrieves the
sockname information.
If unsupported by the OS (pre-Vista), this reverts to the old
(e.g. deadlock-prone) behavior
