selftests/harness: Fix interleaved scheduling leading to race conditions
Fix a race condition when running several FIXTURE_TEARDOWN() managing
the same resource. This fixes a race condition in the Landlock file
system tests when creating or unmounting the same directory.
Using clone3() with CLONE_VFORK guarantees that the child and grandchild
test processes are sequentially scheduled. This is implemented with a
new clone3_vfork() helper replacing the fork() call.
This avoids triggering this error in __wait_for_test():
Test ended in some other way [127]
