Wez Furlong 9d8839a6d9 pty: adjust examples for macOS Catalina
Seems that you need to have read everything you want before you
call waitpid, otherwise the pending data seems to be snipped and
prevented from being read.

//! This is a conceptually simple example that spawns the `whoami` program
//! to print your username. It is made more complex because there are multiple
//! pipes involved and it is easy to get blocked/deadlocked if care and attention
//! is not paid to those pipes!
