Summary: Implement fork using longjmp
Description:
I'm using busybox on a single process embedded system that does not have
the fork system call. This patch implements fork using longjmp when
CONFIG_FEATURE_IMPLEMENT_FORK_USING_LONGJMP is selected in the
configuration.

This appears to be a "vfork in userspace". Wow. But we already have
