Thomas Munro d41a178b3a Fix waitpid() emulation on Windows. 
Our waitpid() emulation didn't prevent a PID from being recycled by the
OS before the call to waitpid().  The postmaster could finish up
tracking more than one child process with the same PID, and confuse
them.

Fix, by moving the guts of pgwin32_deadchild_callback() into waitpid(),
so that resources are released synchronously.  The process and PID
continue to exist until we close the process handle, which only happens
once we're ready to adjust our book-keeping of running children.

This seems to explain a couple of failures on CI.  It had never been
reported before, despite the code being as old as the Windows port.
Perhaps Windows started recycling PIDs more rapidly, or perhaps timing
changes due to commit 7389aad6 made it more likely to break.

Thanks to Alexander Lakhin for analysis and Andres Freund for tracking
down the root cause.

Back-patch to all supported branches.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
