adjust posix_spawn dup2 action behavior to match future requirements
the resolution to Austin Group issue #411 defined new semantics for the posix_spawn dup2 file action in the (previously useless) case where src and dest fd are equal. future issues will require the dup2 file action to remove the close-on-exec flag. without this change, passing fds to a child with posix_spawn while avoiding fd-leak races in a multithreaded parent required a complex dance with temporary fds. based on patch by Petr Skocik. changes were made to preserve the 80-column formatting of the function and to remove code that became unreachable as a result of the new functionality.
