This patch makes a number of improvements to the Pipe interface.
1) An interface (PipeBase) is provided which exposes pure virtual
methods for any implementation of Pipe to override. While not
strictly necessary, this helps catch errors where the interfaces
are out of sync.
2) All methods return lldb_private::Error instead of returning bool
or void. This allows richer error information to be propagated
up to LLDB.
3) A new ReadWithTimeout() method is exposed in the base class and
implemented on Windows.
4) Support for both named and anonymous pipes is exposed through the
base interface and implemented on Windows. For creating a new
pipe, both named and anonymous pipes are supported, and for
opening an existing pipe, only named pipes are supported.
New methods described in points #3 and #4 are stubbed out on posix,
but fully implemented on Windows. These should be implemented by
someone on the linux / mac / bsd side.

Python one-line execution was using ConnectionFileDescriptor to do
a non-blocking read against a pipe. This won't work on Windows,
as CFD is implemented using select(), and select() only works with
sockets on Windows.
The solution is to use ConnectionGenericFile on Windows, which uses
the native API to do overlapped I/O on the pipe. This in turn
requires re-implementing Host::Pipe on Windows using native OS
handles instead of the more portable _pipe CRT api.
