Currently, the first transfer_input() after Ctrl-C does not work
because discard_input flag remains asserted. This can cause loosing
typeahead input for non-cygwin app after Ctrl-C. With this patch,
the discard_input flag is cleared on master write() because the
input is new valid input after discarding input.

Fixes: 4e16e575db04 ("Cygwin: pty: Discard input already accepted on interrupt.")
