posix: Consolidate fork implementation
The Linux nptl implementation is used as base for generic fork implementation to handle the internal locks and mutexes. The system specific bits are moved a new internal _Fork symbol. (This new implementation will be used to provide a async-signal-safe _Fork now that POSIX has clarified that fork might not be async-signal-safe [1]). For Hurd it means that the __nss_database_fork_prepare_parent and __nss_database_fork_subprocess will be run in a slight different order. [1] https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=62
