Console.ReadKey should not throw when read returns 0 records (dotnet#…
…98684) This change fixes a problem where Console.ReadKey inappropriately throws an InvalidOperationException. The Console.ReadKey function can throw an InvalidOperationException when the "application does not have a console or when console input has been redirected". That makes sense. However, there is *another* case where it throws an InvalidOperationException, which happens when there are multiple processes attached to the same console, which are waiting for input, and one dies or is killed. In this case, the native read function returns a "success" return code, but the "out" parameter indicating the number of records read is 0, and in this case, Console.ReadKey is throwing, but it should not be. Note that this behavior of the underlying platform is "almost certainly" a bug (microsoft/terminal#15859); however, it is longstanding behavior, so we would like to avoid blowing up apps who have the misfortune of stumbling into this situation. More details in the linked Issue: Fix dotnet#88697
