[RFC][PATCH] Read/print contents of fifo.

To test that checkpoint/restart of pipes is working, read
one byte at a time from the pipe and write to stdout.

After checkpoint, both the checkpointed application and the
restarted application should continue reading from the checkpoint.

The '-e' option to the program, tests with an empty pipe.
