bpo-41586: Add pipesize parameter to subprocess & F_GETPIPE_SZ and F_SETPIPE_SZ to fcntl. (GH-21921)
* Add F_SETPIPE_SZ and F_GETPIPE_SZ to fcntl module
* Add pipesize parameter for subprocess.Popen class

This will allow the user to control the size of the pipes.
On linux the default is 64K. When a pipe is full it blocks for writing.
When a pipe is empty it blocks for reading. On processes that are
very fast this can lead to a lot of wasted CPU cycles. On a typical
Linux system the max pipe size is 1024K which is much better.
For high performance-oriented libraries such as xopen it is nice to
be able to set the pipe size.

The workaround without this feature is to use my_popen_process.stdout.fileno() in
conjuction with fcntl and 1031 (value of F_SETPIPE_SZ) to acquire this behavior.
