NOFORK
NOFORK applet should work correctly if another applet simply runs
<applet>_main(argc,argv) and then continues with its business (xargs,
find, shells can do it). This poses much more serious limitations
on what applet can/cannot do:
<applet>_main(argc,argv) and then continues with its business.
xargs, find, shells do it (grep for "spawn_and_wait" and
"run_nofork_applet" to find more users).
This poses much more serious limitations on what applet can do:
* all NOEXEC limitations apply.
* do not ever exit() or exec().

Any NOFORK applet is also a NOEXEC applet.
Relevant CONFIG options
FEATURE_PREFER_APPLETS
BB_EXECVP(cmd, argv) will try to exec /proc/self/exe
if command's name matches some applet name
applet tables will contain NOFORK/NOEXEC bits
spawn_and_wait(argv) will do NOFORK/NOEXEC tricks
FEATURE_SH_STANDALONE (needs FEATURE_PREFER_APPLETS=y)
shells will try to exec /proc/self/exe if command's name matches
some applet name
shells will do NOEXEC trick on NOEXEC applets
FEATURE_SH_NOFORK (needs FEATURE_PREFER_APPLETS=y)
shells will do NOFORK trick on NOFORK applets
