    Cygwin: FIFO: fix timing issue with owner change
    
    fhandler_fifo::take_ownership() tacitly assumes that the current
    owner's fifo_reader_thread will be woken up from WFMO when
    update_needed_evt is signaled.  But it's possible that the the current
    owner's fifo_reader_thread is at the beginning of its main loop rather
    than in its WFMO call when that event is signaled.
    
    In this case the owner will never see that the event has been
    signaled, and it will never update the shared fifo_client_handlers.
    The reader that wants to take ownership will then spin its wheels
    forever.
    
    Fix this by having the current owner call update_shared_handlers at
    the beginning of its loop, if necessary.
