mingw: use real pid

The Windows port have so far been using process handles in place
of PID. However, this is not work consistent with what getpid
returns.

PIDs are system-global identifiers, but process handles are local
to a process. Using PIDs instead of process handles allows, for
instance, a user to kill a hung process with the Task Manager,
something that would have been impossible with process handles.

Change the code to use the real PID, and use OpenProcess to get a
process-handle. Store the PID and the process handle in a linked
list protected by a critical section, so we can safely close the
process handle later.
