EPIPE error on Windows runs

See original GitHub issue

Bug

Cypress v3.0.1
Windows
Node 10.1.0
npm 6.1.0

Saw this error on AppVeyor Windows CI https://ci.appveyor.com/project/cypress-io/cypress-example-todomvc/build/1.0.169

events.js:167
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^
Error: shutdown EPIPE

Emitted 'error' event at:

    at emitErrorAndCloseNT (internal/streams/destroy.js:50:3)
    at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:63:19)
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
npm ERR! @ cypress:run: `cypress run`

Maybe

a long request that’s still in flight and being proxied when the server shuts down (since the tests pass)
shutting down the http-server when there are open connections
killing the child processes (?)

Need to debug with DEBUG=cypress:* to isolate the problem
