Apparently the issue is caused by Node opening pipe sockets in RW mode by default.

One point to consider is whether the pipe should be open()ed synchronously - however I'm pretty sure opening a named pipe is always instantaneous. Swapping it for an asynchronous open means initial writes would have to be buffered somewhere first.

I've also added a test that fails on Node 14 with vanilla node-pty right now.

Fixes #457

Nice find, @Eugeny - this fixes my usage of node-pty on NodeJS v14 as well - thank you!
