[issue12044] subprocess.Popen.__exit__ doesn't wait for process end

Hm, yeah, not sure what I was thinking there.

I'm thinking there's not a lot we can do here, but also not a lot that we should do here. We don't want to wait, and we don't want to close, so maybe we should just document that the usage should be limited only to expecting the open handles to be closed?
