Standard input via '-' not working

[ijmitch]

https://www.nano-editor.org/dist/latest/nano.1.html says:

As a special case: if instead of a filename a dash (-) is given, nano will read data from standard input.

But I get:

:>echo "foo" | nano -
Standard input is not a terminal

I can reproduce the issue, investigating

File nano.c will try to open /dev/stdin, which is non existent on omvs. If we change this to /dev/fd0 it works. Patch below will fix this issue. Working on integrating it into formal patch.
