tests: check that procutil.std{out,err}.write() returns correct result
On Windows, we currently don’t fully test the case when the stream is connected
to a TTY, but we test the child process side by connecting them to NUL, which
is recognized as a TTY by Python. To make the large write test a bit more
useful besides checking that it doesn’t crash, we can check that the write()
method returns the correct result.

tests: add tests for when stdout or stderr is connected to `os.devnull`
The original motivation was that creating PTYs on Windows is not possible, but
`NUL` is recognized as a TTY, so we can have at least some test coverage for
the TTY case. I think it doesn’t hurt to run the test cases on all systems.
