The spawn proxy thread is a special existence in NuttX, usually some developers
spend a lot of time on stack overflow of spawn proxy thread:
https://github.com/apache/nuttx/issues/9046https://github.com/apache/nuttx/pull/9081
In order to avoid similar issues, this PR will remove spawn proxy thread to simplify
the process of task/posix_spawn().
1. Postpone the related processing of spawn file actions until after task_init()
2. Delete the temporary thread of spawn proxy and related global variables

If address environments are in use, it is not possible to simply
memcpy from from one process to another. The current implementation
of env_dup does precisely this and thus, it fails at once when it is
attempted between two user processes.
The solution is to use the kernel's heap as an intermediate buffer.
This is a simple, effective and common way to do a fork().
Obviously this is not needed for kernel processes.
Resolution of Issue 619 will require multiple steps, this part of the first step in that resolution: Every call to nxsem_wait_uninterruptible() must handle the return value from nxsem_wait_uninterruptible properly. This commit is only for those files under graphics/, mm/, net/, sched/, wireless/bluetooth.
Still to do: Files under fs/, drivers/, and arch. The last is 116 files and will take some effort.
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_post() which is identical to sem_post() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_post in the OS to nxsem_post().
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_destroy() which is identical to sem_destroy() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_destroy() in the OS to nxsem_destroy().
libc/semaphore and sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_getprotocol() and nxsem_setprotocola which are identical to sem_getprotocol() and set_setprotocol() except that they never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_setprotocol in the OS to nxsem_setprotocol(). sem_getprotocol() was not used in the OS
