xz: Create separate is_tty() function.

The new is_tty() will report if a file descriptor is a terminal or not.
On POSIX systems, it is a wrapper around isatty(). However, the native
Windows implementation of isatty() will return true for all character
devices, not just terminals. So is_tty() has a special case for Windows
so it can use alternative Windows API functions to determine if a file
descriptor is a terminal.

This fixes a bug with MSVC and MinGW-w64 builds that refused to read from
or write to non-terminal character devices because xz thought it was a
terminal. For instance:

    xz foo -c > /dev/null

would fail because /dev/null was assumed to be a terminal.
