The initial implementation was changing the pipe state created by GLib
to PIPE_NOWAIT, but it turns out it doesn't work (read/write returns an
error). Since reading may return less than the requested amount, it
seems to be non-blocking already. However, the IO operation may block
until the FD is ready, I can't find good sources of information, to be
safe we can just poll for readiness before.
Alternatively, we could setup the FDs ourself, and use UNIX sockets on
Windows, which can be used in blocking/non-blocking mode. I haven't
tried it, as I am not sure it is necessary.
