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.
