Added feature to exec external command after x sec
This feature makes libfaketime execute an arbitrary system
command, such as a shell script, after a program has been
running for X seconds or has made Y time-related function
calls.
It is controlled by three environment variables.
FAKETIME_SPAWN_TARGET is the full path + file name +
command line arguments to the user-specified system
command.
FAKETIME_SPAWN_SECONDS is the number of seconds (after
program start / program's first time function call) after
which FAKETIME_SPAWN_TARGET will be executed.
FAKETIME_SPAWN_NUMCALLS can be used as an alternative
to ..._SECONDS.
