#4296: Trivial issues in tor_spawn_background()/tor_check_port_forwarding()

 Some things I noticed while coding #3472 stuff:

 * In tor_spawn_background():
 {{{
   retval = pipe(stderr_pipe);
   if (-1 == retval) {
 }}}
 if pipe() fails, the file descriptors of `pipe(stdout_pipe)` above are
 never closed.

 * In the tor_check_port_forwarding() code or in the Windows version of
 tor_read_all_handle() the stdout/stderr handles are not CloseHandle()d on
 stream error.

 I'll prepare a patch.
