    Cygwin: console: Fix open() failure when the console owner calls exec().
    
    Currently, open() tries to attach to the console which is owned by
    the console owner process. However, when the owner process calls
    exec(), AttachConsole() to dwProcessId may sometimes fail due to
    unlucky timing. With this patch, open() tries to attach also to
    exec_dwProcessId if attaching to dwProcessId fails. That is, open()
    tries to attach to both the stub process and target process to
    prevent the above situation.
    
    Fixes: 3721a756b0d8 ("Cygwin: console: Make the console accessible from other terminals.")
