ash: Add a very small timeout to nonblocking wait
A nonblocking waitpid was implemented using WaitForMultipleObjects with a timeout of 0. This was to fix an issue where builtin commands in a foreground shell were blocked while a background command was running. However, this caused the shell to consume 100% CPU. A workaround seems to be to use a very small (1ms) timeout.
