When in a unity-build GCC 13 sees the implementation of
forkfd_wait4(), called dfrom forkfd_wait(), it can prove that there
are paths that do not initialize *info: Those paths are the returns
following fcntl() in system_forkfs_wait() in forkd_linux.c and read()
in forkfd_wait4().
To work around the issue and unbreak unity-builds, initialize info = {}.

On FreeBSD, the environ variable doesn't come from libc, but is instead
inserted during linking. See ccf74b592809e0c5a613eff27d6431a4c659e368
(5.6) for more information.
But instead of allowing undefined symbols in QtCore, let's use a weakref
to environ so this one symbol is allowed to be undefined. It won't be,
but the linker doesn't know.
FreeBSD appears to be the only BSD to require this. We used to apply the
same linker option to OpenBSD in Qt 5, but neither the OpenBSD or nor
the NetBSD ports trees[1][2] carry a patch for this, so I don't think
it's necessary.

I've investigated the functions we call in the child side of a vfork()
for implementations that do more than simply place the system
call. Where wrappers exist, they are usually related to handling of Unix
signals or PThread cancellation. The implementations investigated are:
- Bionic (Android)
- FreeBSD
- glibc (Linux)
- MUSL (Linux)
- NetBSD
- OpenBSD
Relating to thread cancellation, NetBSD implements it with an internal
API that does not include Unix signals and Bionic doesn't implement
thread cancellation at all. Their wrapper functions are harmless.
The rest do use Unix signals to implement thread cancellations (called
SIGCANCEL everywhere except OpenBSD, where it's SIGTHR). Therefore, they
all block the application attempts to mask this signal or change its
handler (if they're not buggy). FreeBSD's and MUSL's do some locking in
their implementations[1][2] we really want to bypass, therefore we must
bypass their sigaction() wrappers.
The investigation also showed that the glibc[3] and NetBSD[4] abort()
implementations to be slightly unsafe, but we don't use them
ourselves. We're also adding QProcess::failChildProcessModifier() so
users won't have to resort to abort().

There are two types of stack unwinding that can happen on Unix systems:
C++ exceptions and PThread cancellations (on some systems, like Linux,
PThread cancellations can be caught in catch(...) statements). We call a
variety of PThread cancellation functions from inside the child stub,
like close(). To avoid problems, we disable PThread cancellations
completely before fork() or vfork().
The C++ exception case is simpler, because we can be sure of catching
them with the catch (...) statement and simply transform them into an
error message. This is also testable, which the PThread cancellation
isn't.
The error message isn't ideal because we're string-frozen. I'll improve

This reverts commit d6bf71123d3ef073f25610345cb5dc920e4fb783 and the
docs from commit 82b75570f099911076ad0e144927862e8e359fbd
("QProcess/Linux: fix file descriptor leak in case of failed child
start").
Despite the title of the commit being reverted, the actual consequence
is slightly different: we always use the forkfd() function, but we
change whether we force the use of the fork() library function by use of
the FFD_USE_FORK flag.
Commit 97645478de3ceffce11f58eab140c4c775e48be5 (5.15) first added the
FFD_USE_FORK flag with a hack to detect whether the setupChild() virtual
might have been overwritten. A configure-time feature to force the flag
was added in commit 2ed99ff5ca338ac02f71c347b1449d4662e6c221 (6.0).
Before the 6.0 release, commit d6bf71123d3ef073f25610345cb5dc920e4fb783
removed the conditional use of FFD_USE_FORK, with the changelog message
saying "pthread_atfork() callbacks are consistently not invoked".
We've also since added vfork()-like behavior. We tried it for Qt 5.15
and reverted shortly afterwards because we had got the memory semantics
wrong. Commit e1a787a76ed462e4ed49db78a40c6d7e272182d7 (6.5) finally got
it right, for Linux, which revealed another set of problems with
functions used in the child process modifier.
Therefore, we're going to make vfork() and clone() usage opt-in if the
child process modifier is active. This commit is the first part:
disabling their use by default. The flag to opt in will come in Qt 6.6.
[ChangeLog][QtCore][QProcess] Reverted a change from Qt 6.0 that made

be added to Qt 6.6.

fork() works by implementing Copy-On-Write for all pages that either the
parent or the child process write to. So if the parent process continues
running while the child is between fork(2) and execve(2), then it will
keep causing page faults and requiring the OS to duplicate those pages,
which may be expensive (page table updates, TLB flushes, etc.). This
problem is aggravated if the parent process is multithreaded, as the
simple act of running in the parent will cause those threads' stacks to
cause page faults.
The BSD solution for that was vfork(), which has two differences in
behavior: (1) it blocks the parent from running and (2) it shares memory
with it. But it's always been tricky, so POSIX.1-2001 deprecated it and
2008 removed its definition completely. Still, it is available somewhat
widely, and on Linux that can be achieved with clone(2) and the
CLONE_VFORK and CLONE_VM flags, for those two behaviors respectively.
Because of (2), we can't return from the forkfd() function in the child
(as that would trash the stack in the parent process), so to implement
this functionality vforkfd() adds a callback of the same signature as
glibc's clone(2) wrapper (something that hadn't occurred to me when we
attempted to use CLONE_VFORK last time).
On Linux, (1) is no problem, as clone(2) has native forkfd support. But
on other OSes, forkfd() requires the parent to run before the child
execve()s, in order to save the child PID in the list of children we're
going to handle SIGCHLD for in a non-racy way. Investigating if it is
possible to use vfork() anyway is left as an exercise for the reader.

This should have been SIG_DFL, as we're about to execute a child
process. It's the child's responsibility to ignore SIGPIPE if it wants
to, or get killed by it when it writes to an pipe with no readers.
Qt itself does this for its own purposes (see qt_ignore_sigpipe() [until
I can get some time to teach Linux about O_NOSIGPIPE]). Therefore, we
ought to reset what we've done.

That qWarning cannot be in the child process (we don't know if a user
logger is fork-no-exec-safe) and the failure to chdir() should be
reported as a failure in QProcess::startDetached() instead.

That only created an opportunity for qWarning(), which should never be
in the child process in the first place.
