[issue20104] expose posix_spawn(p)

[Danek Duvall]

Danek Duvall added the comment:

Oh, for what it's worth, Solaris added setsid support to posix_spawn a few years ago, as a result of this conversation.  I still think it would be worthwhile supporting this in the stdlib, since we keep running into processes which have a lot of memory reserved and can't fork some small program because they're running in a memory-limited environment.
