[PATCH] CYGWIN: Use a TCP socket for pipe()

["Torsten Bögershausen" <tboegi@web.de>]

Work around issues that git hangs when doing fetch or pull under
various protocols under CYGWIN.

Replace pipe() with a socket connection using a TCP/IP.
Introduce a new function socket_pipe() in compat/socket_pipe.c

Re-define the pipe() function into socket_pipe() for CYGWIN.

(This redefinition does not work for MinGW, because here a socket can
not be mixed with a file handle)
