Refactor Linux ARCH_FORK implementation
This patch refactors the ARCH_FORK macro and the required architecture
specific header to simplify the required architecture definitions
to provide the fork syscall semantic and proper document current
Linux clone ABI variant.

Instead of require the reimplementation of arch-fork.h header, this
patch changes the ARCH_FORK to an inline function with clone ABI
defined by kernel-features.h define.  The generic kernel ABI meant
for newer ports is used as default and redefine if the architecture
requires.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.  Also with a build
for all the afected ABIs.
