Attempting to open a file fails with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED if the file is flagged for deletion but not yet actually gone (another in a long list of reasons why Windows is broken, if you ask me). This seems likely to explain a lot of irreproducible failures we see in the buildfarm. This state generally persists for only a millisecond or so, so just wait a bit and retry. If it's a real permissions problem, we'll eventually give up and report it as such. If it's the pending deletion case, we'll see file-not-found and report that after the deletion completes, and the caller will treat that in an appropriate way. In passing, rejigger the existing retry logic for some other error cases so that we don't uselessly wait an extra time when we're not going to retry anymore. Alexander Lakhin (with cosmetic tweaks by me). Back-patch to all supported branches, since this seems like a pretty safe change and the problem is definitely real.

libpgport
=========
libpgport must have special behavior. It supplies functions to both
libraries and applications. However, there are two complexities:
1) Libraries need to use object files that are compiled with exactly
the same flags as the library. libpgport might not use the same flags,
so it is necessary to recompile the object files for individual
libraries. This is done by removing -lpgport from the link line:
# Need to recompile any libpgport object files
LIBS := $(filter-out -lpgport, $(LIBS))
and adding infrastructure to recompile the object files:
OBJS= execute.o typename.o descriptor.o data.o error.o prepare.o memory.o \
connect.o misc.o path.o exec.o \
$(filter strlcat.o, $(LIBOBJS))
The problem is that there is no testing of which object files need to be
added, but missing functions usually show up when linking user
applications.
2) For applications, we use -lpgport before -lpq, so the static files
from libpgport are linked first. This avoids having applications
dependent on symbols that are _used_ by libpq, but not intended to be
exported by libpq. libpq's libpgport usage changes over time, so such a
dependency is a problem. Windows, Linux, and macOS use an export list to
control the symbols exported by libpq.
