    Refine size constraints applied to win32pstatus ELF notes
    
    Don't reject any win32pstatus notes smaller than minimum size for a
    NOTE_INFO_THREAD.
    
    This only happens to work because the Cygwin dumper tool currently
    writes all these notes as the largest size of the union, (which wastes
    lots of space in the core dump).
    
    Instead, apply the appropriate size constraint for each win32pstatus
    note type.

            * elf.c (elfcore_grok_win32pstatus): Don't apply size constraint
            for NOTE_INFO_THREAD to all win32pstatus ELF notes, instead apply
            appropriate size constraint for each win32pstatus note type.
