1) No performance degradation in pty output for cygwin process.

2) Free from the problem caused by difference of behaviour of control

5) cygwin-console-helper is not necessary for the pseudo console

6) The codes for pseudo console support are much simpler than that
of the previous one.
Disadvantages:
1) The cygwin program which calls console API directly does not work.
2) The apps which use console API cannot be debugged with gdb. This
is because pseudo console is not activated since gdb uses
CreateProcess() rather than exec(). Even with this limitation,
attaching gdb to native apps, in which pseudo console is already
activated, works.
3) Typeahead key inputs are discarded while native console app is
executed. Simirally, typeahead key inputs while cygwin app is
executed are not inherited to native console app.
4) Code page cannot be changed by chcp.com. Acctually, chcp works
itself and changes code page of its own pseudo console. However,
since pseudo console is recreated for another process, it cannot
inherit the code page.
5) system_printf() does not work after stderr is closed. (Same with
cygwin 3.0.7)
6) Startup time of native console apps is about 3 times slower than
previous implemenation.

Cygwin: posix_spawn: add Cygwin-specific code fixing process synchronisation
Newlib's posix_spawn has been taken from FreeBSD. The code relies on
BSD-specific behaviour of vfork, namely the fact that vfork blocks
the parent until the child exits or calls execve as well as the fact
that the child shares parent memory in non-COW mode.
This behaviour can't be emulated by Cygwin. Cygwin's vfork is
equivalent to fork. This is POSIX-compliant, but it's lacking BSD's
vfork ingrained synchronization of the parent to wait for the child
calling execve, or the chance to just write a variable and the parent
will see the result.
So this requires a Cygwin-specific solution. The core function of
posix_spawn, called do_posix_spawn is now implemented twice, once using
the BSD method, and once for Cygwin using Windows synchronization under
the hood waiting for the child to call execve and signalling errors
upstream. The Windows specifics are hidden inside Cygwin, so newlib
only calls internal Cygwin functions.
Use the already existing stub files if possible. These files are
necessary to override the stub implementation with the machine-specific
implementation through the build system.

is open (via the write_ready event). But when a second reader wants
to open, all writers might have closed.
To check this, use a new '_nwriters' member of struct fifo_shmem_t,
which keeps track of the number of open writers. This should be more
reliable than the previous method.
Add nwriters_lock to control access to shmem->_nwriters, and remove
reader_opening_lock, which is no longer needed.
Previously only readers had access to the shared memory, but now
writers access it too so that they can increment _nwriters during
open/dup/fork/exec and decrement it during close.
Add an optional 'only_open' argument to create_shmem for use by
writers, which only open the shared memory rather than first trying to
create it. Since writers don't need to access the shared memory until
they have successfully connected to a pipe instance, they can safely
assume that a reader has already created the shared memory.
For debugging purposes, change create_shmem to return 1 instead of 0
when a reader successfully opens the shared memory after finding that
it had already been created.
Remove check_write_ready_evt, write_ready_ok_evt, and
check_write_ready(), which are no longer needed.
When opening a writer and looping to try to get a connection, recheck
read_ready at the top of the loop since the number of readers might
have changed.
To slightly speed up the process of opening the first reader, take
ownership immediately rather than waiting for the fifo_reader_thread
to handle it.

Cygwin: FIFO: fix problems finding new owner
When the owning reader closes and there are still readers open, the
owner needs to wait for a new owner to be found before closing its
fifo_client handlers. This involves a loop in which dec_nreaders is
called at the beginning and inc_nreaders is called at the end. Any
other reader that tries to access shmem->_nreaders during this loop
will therefore get an inaccurate answer.
Fix this by adding an nreaders method and using it instead of
dec_nreaders and inc_nreaders. Also add nreaders_lock to control
access to the shmem->_nreaders.
Make various other changes to improve the reliability of finding a new
owner.
If __HAVE_LOCALE_INFO__ is not defined, then the locale in the
locale-specific ctype functions is ignored. In the previous
implementation this resulted in compiler warnings. For example:
gcc -Wall main.c
main.c: In function 'main':
main.c:6:11: warning: variable 'locale' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
6 | locale_t locale;
| ^~~~~~

Cygwin: make sure failed sockets always signal writability
Since FD_CONNECT is only given once, we manually need to set
FD_WRITE for connection failed sockets to have consistent
behaviour in programs calling poll/select multiple times.
