- The slowing down issue of X11 forwarding using ssh -Y, reported
in https://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2019-12/msg00295.html,
is due to the change of select() code for pty in the commit
915fcd0ae8. cygthread::detach()
takes at most about 10msec because Sleep() is used in the thread.
For this issue, this patch uses cygwait() instead of Sleep() and
introduces an event to abort the wait. For not only pty, but pipe
and fifo also have the same problem potentially, so this patch
applies same strategy to them as well.
