implement forkall
this is a "nonstandard" function that was "rejected" by POSIX, but
nonetheless had its behavior documented in the POSIX rationale for
fork. it's present on solaris and possibly some other systems, and
duplicates the whole calling process, not just a single thread. glibc
does not have this function. it should not be used in programs
intending to be portable, but may be useful for testing,
checkpointing, etc. and it's an interesting (and quite small) example
of the usefulness of the __synccall framework originally written to
work around deficiencies in linux's setuid syscall.
