наб 0bb2a48ee6 zed: protect against wait4()/fork() races to the global PID table
This can be very easily triggered by adding a sleep(1) before
the wait4() on a PID-starved system: the reaper thread would wait
for a child before its entry appeared, letting old entries accumulate:

  Invoking "all-debug.sh" eid=3021 pid=391
  Finished "(null)" eid=0 pid=391 time=0.002432s exit=0
  Invoking "all-syslog.sh" eid=3021 pid=336
  Finished "(null)" eid=0 pid=336 time=0.002432s exit=0
  Invoking "history_event-zfs-list-cacher.sh" eid=3021 pid=347
  Invoking "all-debug.sh" eid=3022 pid=349
  Finished "history_event-zfs-list-cacher.sh" eid=3021 pid=347
                                              time=0.001669s exit=0
  Finished "(null)" eid=0 pid=349 time=0.002404s exit=0
  Invoking "all-syslog.sh" eid=3022 pid=370
  Finished "(null)" eid=0 pid=370 time=0.002427s exit=0
  Invoking "history_event-zfs-list-cacher.sh" eid=3022 pid=391
  avl_find(tree, new_node, &where) == NULL
  ASSERT at ../../module/avl/avl.c:641:avl_add()
  Thread 1 "zed" received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.

By employing this wider lock, we atomise [wait, remove] and [fork, add]:
slowing down the reaper thread now just causes some zombies
to accumulate until it can get to them
