f09592a5d1 io: Implement process wait timeouts
This implements set_timeout() for std::io::Process which will affect wait()
operations on the process. This follows the same pattern as the rest of the
timeouts emerging in std::io::net.

The implementation was super easy for everything except libnative on unix
(backwards from usual!), which required a good bit of signal handling. There's a
doc comment explaining the strategy in libnative. Internally, this also required
refactoring the "helper thread" implementation used by libnative to allow for an
extra helper thread (not just the timer).

This is a breaking change in terms of the io::Process API. It is now possible
for wait() to fail, and subsequently wait_with_output(). These two functions now
return IoResult<T> due to the fact that they can time out.

Additionally, the wait_with_output() function has moved from taking `&mut self`
to taking `self`. If a timeout occurs while waiting with output, the semantics
are undesirable in almost all cases if attempting to re-wait on the process.
Equivalent functionality can still be achieved by dealing with the output
handles manually.

6ac34926a4 std: User a smaller stdin buffer on windows
Apparently windows doesn't like reading from stdin with a large buffer size, and
it also apparently is ok with a smaller buffer size. This changes the reader
returned by stdin() to return an 8k buffered reader for stdin rather than a 64k
buffered reader.

Apparently libuv has run into this before, taking a peek at their code, with a
specific comment in their console code saying that "ReadConsole can't handle big
buffers", which I presume is related to invoking ReadFile as if it were a file
descriptor.

Closes #13304
