Bug#41860: Without Windows named pipe
The problem was that the patch for Bug#10374 broke named pipe
and shared memory transports on Windows due to a failure to
implement a dummy poll method for transports other than BSD
sockets. Another problem was that mysqltest lacked support
for named pipe and shared memory connections, which lead to
misleading test cases that were supposed run common queries
over both transports.
The solution is to properly implement, at the VIO layer, the
poll and is_connected methods. The is_connected method is
implemented for every suppported transport and the poll one
only where it makes sense. Furthermore, support for named pipe
and shared memory connections is added to mysqltest as to
enable testing of both transports using the test suite.
The problem is that the read and write methods of the shared
memory transport (protocol) didn't react to asynchronous close
events, which could lead to a lock up as the client would wait
(until time out) for a server response that will never come.
The solution is to also wait for close events while waiting
for I/O from or to the server.
