poll: honor the timeout on Win32
Ensure that when passing a pipe, the gnulib poll replacement will not
return 0 before the timeout has passed.
Not obeying the timeout (and merely returning 0) causes pathological
behavior when preparing a packfile for a repository and taking a
long time to do so. If poll were to return 0 immediately, this would
cause keep-alives to get sent as quickly as possible until the packfile
was created. Such deviance from the standard would cause megabytes (or
more) of keep-alive packets to be sent.
GetTickCount is used as it is efficient, stable and monotonically
increasing. (Neither GetSystemTime nor QueryPerformanceCounter have
all three of these properties.)
