zed: protect against wait4()/fork() races to the launched process tree

As soon as wait4() returns, fork() can immediately return with the same
PID, and race to lock _launched_processes_lock, then try to add the new
(duplicate) PID to _launched_processes, which asserts

By locking before wait4(), we ensure, that, given that same
unfortunate scheduling, _launched_processes_lock cannot be locked by the
spawner before we pop the process in the reaper, and only afterward will
it be added

This moves where the reaper idles when there are children from the
wait4() to the pause(), locking for the duration of that single syscall
in both the no-children and running-children cases; the impact of this
is one to two syscalls (depending on _launched_processes_lock state)
per loop
