This patchset is an extension of the patch submitted here: https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin-patches/2021q1/011060.html
That patch is included as the first patch in this set. The change to OPEN_MAX still needs testing to see if it has too much impact on the performance of tcsh. I've make a first attempt to implement the suggestion of adding a new <cygwin/limits.h> header. At this writing I'm not completely sure that I fully understand the purpose of that. My choice of which macros to define in it might need to be changed.
