bug#33154: 27.0.50; create_process on Darwin should not invoke setsid() after vfork() [PATCH]

[Filipp Gunbin]

Well, my initial patch fixed the pipe case, but broke the pty case.
That became visible after make bootstrap.

This new patch seems to work.  It attempts to handle all cases:

- When not on Darwin, just do vfork() and setsid()

- When on Darwin and pipe mode, do the same as call_process(): vfork(),
  then detach from the current controlling terminal via TIOCNOTTY

- When on Darwin and pty mode, do fork() and later setsid().  We should
  create new session to be able to use just allocated tty.

I'll use it for some time, then report the result.
