dan b49beb2c86 make logtap notice sooner when the shipper dies
fifo(7) says

       Under Linux, opening a FIFO for read and write will succeed both
       in blocking and nonblocking mode.  POSIX leaves this behavior
       undefined.  This can be used to open a FIFO for writing while
       there are no readers available.

       When a process tries to write to a FIFO that is not opened for
       read on the other side, the process is sent a SIGPIPE signal.

but ... that doesn't match what I saw, which was that it carried on
writing until the buffer filled and then it blocked or returned -1
(depending on O_NONBLOCK)

Switch to opening O_WRONLY | O_NONBLOCK and retrying periodically
if it fails
