ptyfwd: before deciding that a pty is fully drained, ask the kernel again

Apparently there's no guarantee that EPOLLIN is immediately propagated
from a pty slave to the master when data is written to it, hence it's
not sufficient to check EPOLLIN to decide whether the pty device is
drained.

Let's fix this by asking the kernel directly through SIOCINQ + SIOCOUTQ,
if there's anything buffered left.

Fixes: #7531
