dup tty error.

["Chris January" <chris at atomice dot net>]

Normally i would expect to see this error, say, 1 in 2 times I click the
Cygwin icon. But yesterday I clicked it about 30 times and I keep getting
the same error.
Error follows:
      3 [main] bash 776 fhandler_base::dup: dup(/dev/tty) failed, handle B,
Win32 error 87
readline: warning: rl_prep_terminal: cannot get terminal settings←]0;~

See this thread for more details:

Attached is a patch which fixes the bug, by giving the console window title
more time (up to 1 second) to change. FindWindow is called in a loop, so for
the normal execution path there is no extra overhead.

 * tty.cc (tty_list::allocate_tty): retry FindWindow if it fails.
