    A future patch wants the DAC security manager to be able to safely
    get the supplemental group list for a given uid, but at the time
    of a fork rather than during initialization so as to pick up on
    live changes to the system's group database.  This patch adds the
    framework, including the possibility of a pre-fork callback
    failing.
    
    For now, any driver that implements a prefork callback must be
    robust against the possibility of being part of a security stack
    where a later element in the chain fails prefork.  This means
    that drivers cannot do any action that requires a call to postfork
    for proper cleanup (no grabbing a mutex, for example).  If this
    is too prohibitive in the future, we would have to switch to a
    transactioning sequence, where each driver has (up to) 3 callbacks:
    PreForkPrepare, PreForkCommit, and PreForkAbort, to either clean
    up or commit changes made during prepare.
    
    * src/security/security_driver.h (virSecurityDriverPreFork): New
    callback.
    * src/security/security_manager.h (virSecurityManagerPreFork):
    Change signature.
    * src/security/security_manager.c (virSecurityManagerPreFork):
    Optionally call into driver, and allow returning failure.
    * src/security/security_stack.c (virSecurityDriverStack):
    Wrap the handler for the stack driver.
    * src/qemu/qemu_process.c (qemuProcessStart): Adjust caller.
