command: avoid leaking fds across fork

Since libvirt is multi-threaded, we should use FD_CLOEXEC as much
as possible in the parent, and only relax fds to inherited after
forking, to avoid leaking an fd created in one thread to a fork
run in another thread.  This gets us closer to that ideal, by
making virCommand automatically clear FD_CLOEXEC on fds intended
for the child, as well as avoiding a window of time with non-cloexec
pipes created for capturing output.

* src/util/command.c (virExecWithHook): Use CLOEXEC in parent.  In
child, guarantee that all fds to pass to child are inheritable.
(getDevNull): Use CLOEXEC.
(prepareStdFd): New helper function.
(virCommandRun, virCommandRequireHandshake): Use pipe2.
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c (qemuBuildCommandLine): Simplify caller.
