2017-08-18	__ntapi_ipc_create_pipe(): refine, change polling strategy.	midipix	2	-20/+18
	The canonical way of polling an i/o handle by requesting a zero-byte read/write operation and then waiting on the event (or apc routine) that was specified for that i/o operation fails to work on the writing end of a byte-stream pipe. Specifically, the request completes immediately, therefore not allowing us to employ it for a controlled poll operation. Following this patch, the writing end of the pipe is opened with the NT_FILE_SYNCHRONOUS_IO_ALERT flag set. With this flag set, zero-byte writes block, which makes them perfectly suitable for a polling operation, but less so for non-blocking i/o. With some effort, however, the latter can be achieved and be both robust and reliable.
