[issue36488] BSD/OSX: os.sendfile() does not return bytes sent on EINTR

[Giampaolo Rodola']

New submission from Giampaolo Rodola' :

>From "man sendfile" on both OSX and FreeBSD:

<<[EINTR] A signal interrupted sendfile() before it could be completed. If 
specified, the number of bytes successfully sent will be returned in *len.>>

Right now we catch EINTR and simply retry. Instead we should only retry is no 
bytes were sent, else we should return those bytes, similarly to what we do on 
EAGAIN and EBUSY:
