platform: implement readpipe()

Reading all available data from a pipe has a platform-dependent
implementation.

This patch establishes platform.readpipe() by copying the
inline implementation in sshpeer.readerr(). The implementations
for POSIX and Windows are currently identical. The POSIX
implementation will be changed in a subsequent patch.
