stdio: add machinery to identify failed stdout/stderr writes

Mercurial currently fails to notice failures to write to stdout or
stderr. A correctly functioning command line tool should detect
this and exit with an error code.

To achieve this, we need a little extra plumbing, which we start
adding here.
