Happily, this issue *wasn't* a bug in the I/O refcounting code. The 
failed assertion (which is new in Emacs 30 and exists for exactly this 
reason) just revealed a bug in another part of Eshell. Fix attached 
(plus fixing another issue mentioned in the code comments) with some 
regression tests.

Let me know if this works for you, or if you see any further issues.
