Returning a pidfd allows a process to keep a race-free handle to a child
process, otherwise the caller will need to either use pidfd_open (which
still might be subject to TOCTOU) or keep the old racy interface base
on pid_t.

The implementation makes sure that kernel must support the complete
pidfd interface, meaning that waitid (P_PIDFD) should be supported
(added on Linux 5.4).  It ensures that non racy workaround is required
(such as reading procfs fdinfo pid to use along with old wait interfaces).

These interfaces are similar to the posix_spawn and posix_spawnp, with
the only different diferent being it returns a process file descriptor
(int) instead of process ID (pid_t).  Their prototypes are:

  int pidfd_spawn (int *restrict pidfd,
 		   const char *restrict file,
  		   const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *restrict facts,
  		   const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp,
  		   char *const argv[restrict],
  		   char *const envp[restrict])

  int pidfd_spawnp (int *restrict pidfd,
 		    const char *restrict path,
  		    const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *restrict facts,
  		    const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp,
  		    char *const argv[restrict_arr],
  		    char *const envp[restrict_arr]);

A new symbol is used instead of a posix_spawn extension to avoid possible
issue with language bindings that might track the return argument
lifetime.  Although, on Linux pid_t and int are interchangeable, POSIX
only state that pid_t should be a signed interger.

Both symbols reuse the posix_spawn posix_spawn_file_actions_t and
posix_spawnattr_t, to void rehash posix_spawn API or add a new one.
It also mean that both interfaces support the same attribute and
file actions, and a new flag or file actions on posix_spawn is also
added automatically for pidfd_spawn.

Also, using posix_spawn plumbering allows to reuse most of the current
testing with some changes:

  - waitid is used instead of waitpid, since it is a more generic
    interface.

  - tst-posix_spawn-setsid.c is adapted to take in consideration that
    caller can check for session id directly.  The test now spawn itself
    and write the session id a file instead.

  - tst-spawn3.c need to know where pidfd_spawn is used so it keep
    an extra file description ununsed.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu on Linux 4.15 (no CLONE_PID or waitid
support), Linux 5.15 (only clone support), and Linux 5.19 (full
support including clone3).
