Research direction

Start with the latest repeatable report linked from the xonsh issue comment and reproduce the Bad file descriptor failure while prompt-toolkit is used with xonsh. Trace the relevant prompt-toolkit terminal or file-descriptor handling, then verify that the reported repeatable cases no longer fail.

Description

Hey!
I see many stable repeatable cases when prompt-toolkit shows the Bad file descriptor error.
It makes xonsh shell users sad.

You can find the latest most repeatable report in this comment.

Please help to fix this.

Thanks!
