xz: Don't fail if stdin doesn't support O_NONBLOCK.
It's a problem at least on OpenBSD which doesn't support O_NONBLOCK on e.g. /dev/null. I'm not surprised if it's a problem on other OSes too since this behavior is allowed in POSIX-1.2008. The code relying on this behavior was committed in June 2013 and included in 5.1.3alpha released on 2013-10-26. Clearly the development releases only get limited testing.
