util-lib: Add sparc64 support for process creation (#3348)

The current raw_clone function takes two arguments, the cloning flags and
a pointer to the stack for the cloned child. The raw cloning without
passing a "thread main" function does not make sense if a new stack is
specified, as it returns in both the parent and the child, which will fail
in the child as the stack is virgin. All uses of raw_clone indeed pass NULL
for the stack pointer which indicates that both processes should share the
stack address (so you better don't pass CLONE_VM).

This commit refactors the code to not require the caller to pass the stack
address, as NULL is the only sensible option. It also adds the magic code
needed to make raw_clone work on sparc64, which does not return 0 in %o0
for the child, but indicates the child process by setting %o1 to non-zero.
This refactoring is not plain aesthetic, because non-NULL stack addresses
need to get mangled before being passed to the clone syscall (you have to
apply STACK_BIAS), whereas NULL must not be mangled. Implementing the
conditional mangling of the stack address would needlessly complicate the
code.

raw_clone is moved to a separete header, because the burden of including
the assert machinery and sched.h shouldn't be applied to every user of
missing_syscalls.h

+ *
+ * Uses the clone system call to create a new process with the cloning
+ * flags and termination signal passed in the flags parameter. Opposed
+ * to glibc's clone funtion, using this function does not set up a
+ * separate stack for the child, but relies on copy-on-write semantics
+ * on the one stack at a common virtual address, just as fork does.
+ *
+ * To obtain copy-on-write semantics, flags must not contain CLONE_VM,
+ * and thus CLONE_THREAD and CLONE_SIGHAND (which require CLONE_VM) are
+ * not usabale.
+ * Additionally, as this function does not pass the ptid, newtls and ctid
+ * parameters to the kernel, flags must not contain CLONE_PARENT_SETTID,
+ * CLONE_CHILD_SETTID, CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID or CLONE_SETTLS.
+ *
+ * Returns: 0 in the child process and the child process id in the parent.
