unix: fix non-OSX builds

uv__stream_osx_interrupt_select was only defined on OS X, but is used
elsewhere on all platforms. The intention was to implement it as a
no-op on other platforms, but the entire definition was inside
"#ifdef __APPLE__", so this didn't actually work.

Fix: move it above the #ifdef.

stream: fix uv__stream_osx_select

Relying on `readable`/`writable` when polling will lead to the select
thread spinning in the loop and calling `uv_async_send()`, because
stream may never become not `readable`/`writable`.

We should rely on `uv__io_active()` instead and interruprt select thread
every time it changes.

Revert "pipe: allow queueing pending handles"

The commit is quite broken and must be refactored before going into.

osx: Fix a possible segfault in uv__io_poll

In our build infrastructure, I've seen a lot of segfaults recently that
were all only happening on OSX. Upon inspecting the coredumps, it
appearded that all segfaults happened at the same instruction, and upon
translating the assembly back to the source, I found that an array could
be indexed with a -1 index before the index was checked to be not -1.

As concrete evidence, here is the situation that I found caused the
segfault. The instruction in question along with the relevant register
values was:

mov (%r8,%r15,8),%r12

r8 = 0x7fb0ba800000
r15 = 0xffffffffffffffff

r8 + r15 * 8 == 0x7fb0ba7ffff8

It appears that the base of loop->watchers was page aligned, and by
going back one word I guess that the page wasn't mapped, causing our
segfaults.

test: make test-pipe-server-close pass on linux

When a server and a client are both part of the same event loop, and
the client connects to the server, the order in which the connect
callback and the connection callback are called is unspecified.
Apparently on linux the connection callback sometimes happens first,
which is not a bug, and should not make this test fail.

windows: avoid assertion failure when pipe server is closed

When a pipe server is closed, all pending accept requests and their
associated HANDLEs are closed to force windows to cancel the
ConnectNamedPipe IRP. The returned request has the `pipeHandle` field
set to INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE, which trips an assert in
uv_pipe_process_accept_req. This patch fixes that.

unix: fix a possible memory leak in uv_fs_readdir

Some scandir implementations allocate the dirent struct even if the
directory is empty, so if `scandir` returns 0 there may still be memory
that needs to get deallocated. I have altered uv__fs_readdir to go to
the "deallocation exit area" when 0 files are found in the directory
and continue to return early on a return value of -1.

I went to add a test for this functionality, but it appears that one
already exists (reading an empty directory), so I imagine that the
valgrind builds must only be happening on linux instead of OSX as well?
I have confirmed manually that a program without this fix will
infinitely leak memory, and with this fix the memory usage stays
constant.
