* Name: task_spawn
*
* Description:
* This function marshals task_spwan() parameters and invokes the
* nx_task_spawn() system call.
*
* task_spawn() and posix_spawn() are NuttX OS interfaces. In PROTECTED
* and KERNEL build modes, then can be reached from applications only via
* a system call. Currently, the number of parameters in a system call
* is limited to six; these spawn function have seven parameters. Rather
* than extend the maximum number of parameters across all architectures,
* I opted instead to marshal the seven parameters into a structure.
*
*
* Input Parameters:
* file_actions - The address of the posix_spawn_file_actions_t to be
* initialized.
*
* Returned Value:
* On success, these functions return 0; on failure they return an error
* number from <errno.h>.
