 {{{

 revision="c2a1fa7aec426727be6df79f3db109183e42cfdc"
 base: Fix fdReady() potentially running forever on Windows.

 This fixes #13497 for Windows -- at least for the `if (isSock)` part; I
 haven't investigated the case where it's not a socket yet.

 Solved by copying the new current-time based waiting logic from the
 non-Windows implementation above.
