adjust posix_spawn dup2 action behavior to match future requirements
the resolution to Austin Group issue #411 defined new semantics for
the posix_spawn dup2 file action in the (previously useless) case
where src and dest fd are equal. future issues will require the dup2
file action to remove the close-on-exec flag. without this change,
passing fds to a child with posix_spawn while avoiding fd-leak races
in a multithreaded parent required a complex dance with temporary fds.
based on patch by Petr Skocik. changes were made to preserve the
80-column formatting of the function and to remove code that became
unreachable as a result of the new functionality.
