Mark Mentovai 90054edf62 win: De-flake hanging_program.exe
hanging_program.exe is used by crash_other_program.exe, which is in turn
used by end_to_end_test.py. It hangs by loading loader_lock_dll.dll,
which squats in its entry point function while the loader lock is held.

hanging_program.exe needs to do some work in its Thread1() before the
loader lock is taken (a SetThreadPriority() call), and needs to do some
work in its main thread once the loader lock is held (it needs to signal
crash_other_program.exe that it’s successfully wedged itself).
Previously, proper synchronization was not provided. A 1-second Sleep()
was used to wait for the loader lock to be taken. Thread1() pre-work was
only achieved before the loader lock was taken by sheer luck. Things
didn’t always work out so nicely.

This uses an event handle to provide synchronization. An environment
variable is used to pass the handle to loader_lock_dll.dll, because
there aren’t many better options available. This eliminates both flake
and the unnecessary 1-second delay in hanging_program.exe, and since
this program runs twice during end_to_end_test.py, it improves that
test’s runtime by 2 seconds.
