all: add syz_clone() and syz_clone3() pseudo calls
As was pointed out in #2921, the current approach of limiting the number
of pids per process does not work on all Linux-based kernels.
We could just treat fork, clone and clone3 in a special way (e.g. exit
on a zero return). However, in that case we also need to sanitize the
arguments for clone and clone3 - if CLONE_VM is passed and stack is 0,
the forked child processes (threads) will become nearly unindentifiable
and will corrupt syz-executor's memory. While we could sanitize clone's
arguments, we cannot do so for clone3 - nothing can guarantee that they
will not be changed concurrently.
Instead of calling those syscalls directly, introduce a special pseudo
syscall syz_clone3. It copies and sanitizes the arguments and then
executes clone3 (or fork, if we're on an older kernel) in such a way so
as to prevent fork bombs from happening.
Also introduce syz_clone() to still be able to fuzz it on older systems.
