1) pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket(): WaitForMultipleObjectsEx now called with
finite timeout (100ms) in case of FP_WRITE and UDP socket. If timeout occurs

WaitForMultipleObjectsEx again.

2) pgwin32_send(): add loop around WSASend and pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket().

pgwin32_waitforsinglesocket() isn't guarantee that socket is still free,
it can become busy again and following WSASend call will fail with
