I reverted the inclusion of sys/select.h in sys/types.h.  I know it's
done on FreeBSD, but it's not done on NetBSD nor on Linux.  It's also
questionable from a POSIX POV.

Given that sys/select.h was never included from sys/types.h before in
newlib, there's no code relying on this yet.  OTOH it potentially breaks
backward compatibility and in an existing case it actually breaks
building Gnulib on Cygwin.

Hope that's ok.  If not we can discuss this further next year.
