Implement named pipes for windows, touch up unix
* Implementation of pipe_win32 filled out for libnative
* Reorganize pipes to be clone-able
* Fix a few file descriptor leaks on error
* Factor out some common code into shared functions
* Make use of the if_ok!() macro for less indentation

Closes #11201

+//! Named pipes implementation for windows
+//!
+//! If are unfortunate enough to be reading this code, I would like to first
+//! apologize. This was my first encounter with windows named pipes, and it
+//! didn't exactly turn out very cleanly. If you, too, are new to named pipes,
+//! read on as I'll try to explain some fun things that I ran into.
+//!
+//! # Unix pipes vs Named pipes
+//!
+//! As with everything else, named pipes on windows are pretty different from
+//! unix pipes on unix. On unix, you use one "server pipe" to accept new client
+//! pipes. So long as this server pipe is active, new children pipes can
+//! connect. On windows, you instead have a number of "server pipes", and each
+//! of these server pipes can throughout their lifetime be attached to a client
+//! or not. Once attached to a client, a server pipe may then disconnect at a
+//! later date.
+//!
+//! # Accepting clients
+//!
+//! As with most other I/O interfaces, our Listener/Acceptor/Stream interfaces
+//! are built around the unix flavors. This means that we have one "server
+//! pipe" to which many clients can connect. In order to make this compatible
+//! with the windows model, each connected client consumes ownership of a server
+//! pipe, and then a new server pipe is created for the next client.
+//!
+//! Note that the server pipes attached to clients are never given back to the
+//! listener for recycling. This could possibly be implemented with a channel so
+//! the listener half can re-use server pipes, but for now I err'd on the simple
+//! side of things. Each stream accepted by a listener will destroy the server
+//! pipe after the stream is dropped.
+//!
+//! This model ends up having a small race or two, and you can find more details
+//! on the `native_accept` method.
+//!
+//! # Simultaneous reads and writes
+//!
+//! In testing, I found that two simultaneous writes and two simultaneous reads
+//! on a pipe ended up working out just fine, but problems were encountered when
+//! a read was executed simultaneously with a write. After some googling around,
+//! it sounded like named pipes just weren't built for this kind of interaction,
+//! and the suggested solution was to use overlapped I/O.
+//!
+//! I don't realy know what overlapped I/O is, but my basic understanding after
+//! reading about it is that you have an external Event which is used to signal
+//! I/O completion, passed around in some OVERLAPPED structures. As to what this
+//! is, I'm not exactly sure.
+//!
+//! This problem implies that all named pipes are created with the
+//! FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED option. This means that all of their I/O is
+//! asynchronous. Each I/O operation has an associated OVERLAPPED structure, and
+//! inside of this structure is a HANDLE from CreateEvent. After the I/O is
+//! determined to be pending (may complete in the future), the
+//! GetOverlappedResult function is used to block on the event, waiting for the
+//! I/O to finish.
+//!
+//! This scheme ended up working well enough. There were two snags that I ran
+//! into, however:
+//!
+//! * Each UnixStream instance needs its own read/write events to wait on. These
+//!   can't be shared among clones of the same stream because the documentation
+//!   states that it unsets the event when the I/O is started (would possibly
+//!   corrupt other events simultaneously waiting). For convenience's sake,
+//!   these events are lazily initialized.
+//!
+//! * Each server pipe needs to be created with FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED in addition
+//!   to all pipes created through `connect`. Notably this means that the
+//!   ConnectNamedPipe function is nonblocking, implying that the Listener needs
+//!   to have yet another event to do the actual blocking.
+//!
+//! # Conclusion
+//!
+//! The conclusion here is that I probably don't know the best way to work with
+//! windows named pipes, but the solution here seems to work well enough to get
+//! the test suite passing (the suite is in libstd), and that's good enough for
+//! me!
