    Revert "Cygwin: fstat_helper: always use handle in call to get_file_attribute"
    
    This reverts commit 76dca77f049271e2529c25de8a396e65dbce615d.  That
    commit was based on the incorrect assumption that get_stat_handle,
    when called on a FIFO in fstat_helper, would always return a handle
    that is safe to use for getting the file information.
    
    That assumption is true in many cases but not all.  For example, if
    the call to fstat_helper arises from a call to fstat(2) on a FIFO that
    has been opened for writing, then get_stat_handle will return a pipe
    handle instead of a file handle.
