Provide the correct POSIX return value for POSIX::dup2() on Win32.
Microsoft, in their wisdom, chose to ignore the POSIX spec when implementing
their dup2(), and have theirs return 0 on success, instead of the file
descriptor. It seems that no other vendor is this, um, "special", so code
the exception directly, as we don't run Configure on Win32, so there's
little
point probing for this.
This resolves RT #98912.

Convert POSIX::sleep to an XS wrapper for PerlProc_sleep().
Previously it was a Perl wrapper for CORE::sleep, converting CORE::sleep's
return value of elapsed time slept into the POSIX return value of seconds
remaining. However, that approach could sometimes return a negative result
if CORE::sleep had slept for more than a second longer than the requested
time.
