[PATCH] Cygwin: dtable: Delete old kludge code for /dev/tty.

This old kludge code assigns fhandler_console for /dev/tty even
if the CTTY is not a console when stat() has been called. Due to
this, the problem reported in
https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2023-June/253888.html
occurs after the commit 3721a756b0d8 ("Cygwin: console: Make the
console accessible from other terminals.").

This patch fixes the issue by dropping the old kludge code.
