core: use raw_clone instead of fork in signal handler
fork() is not async-signal-safe and calling it from the signal handler could result in a deadlock when at_fork() handlers are called. Using the raw clone() syscall sidesteps that problem. The tricky part is that raise() does not work, since getpid() does not work. Add raw_getpid() to get the real pid, and use kill() instead of raise(). https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86604
