On Windows, don't cancel I/O when disabling the device.

I have observed cases where disable_device() can get stuck on the
GetOverlappedResult() call, especially when the computer is waking up
from sleep. This is problematic when combined with DeviceStandby=yes:

    other_side (1.2.3.4 port 655) didn't respond to PING in 5 seconds
    Closing connection with other_side (1.2.3.4 port 655)
    Disabling Windows tap device
    <STUCK>

gdb reveals the following stack trace:

This is with TAP-Win32 9.0.0.9. I suspect driver bugs related to sleep.
In any case, this commit fixes the issue by cancelling I/O only when the
entire tinc process is being gracefully shut down, as opposed to every
time the device is disabled. Thankfully, the driver seems to be
perfectly fine with this code issuing TAP_IOCTL_SET_MEDIA_STATUS ioctls
while there are I/O operations inflight.
