[Nut-upsdev] [Nut-upsuser] Upssched 100% CPU after updating Debian 12

So... determining that FD is to be reaped proved hard. Internet lore
suggests fcntl() and poll() on the FD, but it just seems valid to them. The
errno is also usually not raised (once I saw a "111: Connection refused"
though).
So the best dumb idea so far is to bail out if we spent the whole loop (128
attempts) and only got zero-sized read replies and no errors.
