Description
This PR fixes a race condition where file descriptors are inherited by child processes (such as "gzip"), which causes some operations, such as renaming buckets to fail with a "file in use" error.
The fix here is to move to Windows 7+ APIs, that allow to whitelist which descriptors to pass to the child process, in our case we only need the descriptor for standard output.
