make Child::try_wait return io::Result<Option<ExitStatus>>
This is much nicer for callers who want to short-circuit real I/O errors
with `?`, because they can write this

    if let Some(status) = foo.try_wait()? {
        ...
    } else {
        ...
    }

instead of this

    match foo.try_wait() {
        Ok(status) => {
            ...
        }
        Err(err) if err.kind() == io::ErrorKind::WouldBlock => {
            ...
        }
        Err(err) => return Err(err),
    }

The original design of `try_wait` was patterned after the `Read` and
`Write` traits, which support both blocking and non-blocking
implementations in a single API. But since `try_wait` is never blocking,
it makes sense to optimize for the non-blocking case.
