/// Spawning and manipulation of children processes.
///
/// The child module provides a set of functions to spawn subprocesses with
/// different settings, and the corresponding set of classes to interact with
/// said subprocesses. The interfaces to fork subprocesses are very simplified
/// and only provide the minimum functionality required by the rest of the
/// project.
///
/// Be aware that the semantics of the fork and wait methods exposed by this
/// module are slightly different from that of the native calls. Any process
/// spawned by fork here will be isolated in its own process group; once any of
/// such children processes is awaited for, its whole process group will be
/// terminated. This is the semantics we want in the above layers to ensure
/// that test programs (and, for that matter, external utilities) do not leak
/// subprocesses on the system.
