    setup_pseudoconsole(): handle missing/incorrect helper gracefully
    
    When `cygwin-console-helper.exe` is either missing, or corresponds to a
    different Cygwin runtime, we currently wait forever while setting up
    access to the pseudo console, even long after the process is gone that
    was supposed to signal that it set up access to the pseudo console.
    
    Let's handle that more gracefully: if the process exited without
    signaling, we cannot use the pseudo console. In that case, let's just
    fall back to not using it.
