[issue35537] use os.posix_spawn in subprocess

STINNER Victor <vstinner at redhat.com> added the comment:

If someone wants to implement a runtime check for musl, here is an heuristic based on ldd output and libc filenames:

https://github.com/lovell/detect-libc/blob/master/lib/detect-libc.js

var GLIBC = 'glibc';
var MUSL = 'musl';

    // Try ldd
    var ldd = spawnSync('ldd', ['--version'], spawnOptions);
    if (ldd.status === 0 && ldd.stdout.indexOf(MUSL) !== -1) {
      family = MUSL;
      version = versionFromMuslLdd(ldd.stdout);
      method = 'ldd';
    } else if (ldd.status === 1 && ldd.stderr.indexOf(MUSL) !== -1) {
      family = MUSL;
      version = versionFromMuslLdd(ldd.stderr);
      method = 'ldd';
    } else {
      // Try filesystem (family only)
      var lib = safeReaddirSync('/lib');
      if (lib.some(contains('-linux-gnu'))) {
        family = GLIBC;
        method = 'filesystem';
      } else if (lib.some(contains('libc.musl-'))) {
        family = MUSL;
        method = 'filesystem';
      } else if (lib.some(contains('ld-musl-'))) {
        family = MUSL;
        method = 'filesystem';
      } else {
        var usrSbin = safeReaddirSync('/usr/sbin');
        if (usrSbin.some(contains('glibc'))) {
          family = GLIBC;
          method = 'filesystem';
        }
      }
}
