When reading commands from stdin, we would read too much before
starting to run them:
# git master (second line is read by python)
% print -l python2 'print "%s"%"hi"' | zsh
hi
# git master with 1640457f475 reverted
# zsh consumes all input, python does nothing, exits, then we run the
2nd line as zsh code
% print -l python2 'print "%s"%"hi"' | Src/zsh
%s%hi

See also "0:Non-interactive shell command input is line buffered" in
A01 added in that commit.
