Ken Brown fe937e21ad Cygwin: FIFO: Revert "take ownership on exec"
This reverts commit 39a9cd9465.

There is no need to explicitly take ownership in fixup_after_exec; if
ownership transfer is needed, it will be taken care of by
fhandler_fifo::close when the parent closes.  Moreover, closing the
parent's fifo_reader_thread can cause problems, such as the one
reported here:
