    Cygwin: open_shared: always bump next_address
    
    The new loop in open_shared has a subtil performance problem.
    Next_address is bumped only if mapping at this address
    failed.  Every subsequent call to open_shared has a high probability
    having to call MapViewOfFileEx twice, because next_address is still
    set to the address of the last successful mapping.
    
    Avoid this by bumping next_address every time.
    
    While at it, fix a comment.
