Log message (14 lines):
New piece of Windows infrastructure: winhandl.c takes Plink's
thread-based approach to stdin and stdout, wraps it in a halfway
sensible API, and makes it a globally available service across all
network tools.

There is no direct functionality enhancement from this checkin:
winplink.c now talks to the new API instead of doing it all
internally, but does nothing different as a result.

However, this should lay the groundwork for several diverse pieces
of work in future: pipe-based ProxyCommand on Windows, a serial port
back end, and (hopefully) a pipe-based means of communicating with
Pageant, which should have sensible blocking behaviour and hence
permit asynchronous agent requests and decrypt-on-demand.
