stty: support -I, --immediate to not wait for pending transmission
In some cases an initial drain may block indefinitely as discussed at:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2016-01/msg00007.html
* src/stty.c (main): Use TCSANOW rather than TCSADRAIN if -I specified.
(usage): Document the new option.
* doc/coreutils.texi (stty invocation): Likewise.
* tests/misc/stty.sh: Ensure -I is supported.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
