[PATCH v2 1/2] Cygwin: pinfo: stop remember doing reattach


During fork, the child process requires the process table to be
initialized for fixup_shms_after_fork, while still allowing subsequent
dlls.load_after_fork to fail silently (for when the "forkable" hardlinks
are not created yet).
pinfo::remember not performing reattach anymore requires explicit
pinfo::reattach now where appropriate.

Prepares to improve "Cygwin: fork: Remember child not before success."
commit f03ea8e1c57bd5cea83f6cd47fa02870bdfeb1c5, which leads to fork
problems if cygserver is running:
