StdinReader: Remove throttling on exception
Introducing the throttling unfortunately has a negative side-effect: it delays all stdin processing, including EOF detection, which can cause confusion the previous commit tries to fix. The only benefit of the throttling is to prevent 100% CPU usage when a lot of garbage is provided on xmobar stdin. We still don't know where that garbage comes from in https://github.com/jaor/xmobar/issues/438, or rather why there's more than a handful of lines of such garbage. @psibi has since fixed his setup to not produce that garbage, and no one else ever reported such a problem, so it's probably safe to ignore it for now. Should anyone ever encounter that again, feel free to ping me, even in the middle of the night, to help debug this. Fixes: 7759df11f746 ("StdinReader: Improve exception handling") Fixes: b7a3d6745817 ("Avoid busy looping by not catching all exceptions")
