causes child processes after fork to fall completely silent, which can
make the output a lot less confusing. In addition it is pretty much
essential in XML output mode, so as to avoid mixing up any child XML
output with the parent's.

suggested in #119404.
Prior to this commit, if the current traced process attempted to
execve a setuid executable, an error was always returned. The revised
behaviour is:
If the current (traced) process attempts to execve a setuid
executable:
* If --trace-children=yes is not in effect, the execve is allowed.
* If --trace-children=yes is in effect, the execve is disallowed
(as at present), but an error message is printed (unless in XML mode),
so at least the execve does not fail silently any more.
As per discussion on #119404 we could probably do a lot better, but
these changes are at least simple, useful and uncontroversial.

- track SysRes changes
- track VG_(am_find_nsegment) const-ness change
- increase number of client syscall args supported from 6 to 8
- simplify type SyscallStatus. Simply hold a copy of the SysRes
for the syscall rather than have this be a data structure
incorporating something very similar to the fields of a SysRes,
and more besides. Change various macros in priv_types_n_macros.h
to match.
- syswrap-main.c: instantiate the various impedance-matching
functions for AIX.

interface, except for the syscall numbers, into that. Mostly this
means moving include/vki-*.h to include/vki/vki-*.h.
include/pub_tool_basics.h previously dragged in the entire kernel
interface. I've done away with that, so that modules which need to
see the kernel interface now have to include pub_{core,tool}_vki.h
explicitly. This is why there are many modified .c files -- they have
all acquired an extra #include line.
This certainly breaks all platforms except x86. Will fix shortly.

trash some other segment as a result of the expansion. This fixes
#129866. I don't know if it is a good solution though. Causes
none/tests/mremap{,2} to fail now, although I think it is still OK.
mremap really is a semantic disaster area.

limit of the brk segment.
Because VG_(brk_limit) is the first address beyond the end of the
memory available to the caller of brk() we need to allow it to grow
up to and including the address one page below the end of the space
valgrind has reserved.

checking of programs done in these two places are combined, which avoids
duplicate code and greatly reduces the number of cases in which exec()
fails causing Valgrind to bomb out.
Also, we can now load some programs we could not previously, such as scripts
lacking a "#!" line at the start. Also, the startup failure messages for
bad programs match the shell's messages very closely.
And I added a whole bunch of regtests to test all this.
