[PATCH v2 5/7] Cygwin: signal: Drop unnecessary queue flush

Previously, the retry flag was always set when pending_signal::pending()
was called. However, if the queue is empty sig thread tries to flush
the queue even though it is not necessary. With this patch, the retry
flag is set only if the queue is not empty.

Fixes: 5e31c80e4e8d ("(pending_signals::pending): Force an additional loop through wait_sig by setting retry whenever this function is called.")
