mingw: replace isatty() hack

Git for Windows has carried a patch that depended on internals
of MSVC runtime, but it does not work correctly with recent MSVC
runtime. A replacement was written originally for compiling
with VC++. The patch in this message is a backport of that
replacement, and it also fixes the previous attempt to make
isatty() tell that /dev/null is *not* an interactive terminal.
