Subject: [PATCH v2 8/9] selftests/harness: Share _metadata between forked processes

Unconditionally share _metadata between all forked processes, which
enables to actually catch errors which were previously ignored.

This is required for a following commit replacing vfork() with clone3()
and CLONE_VFORK (i.e. not sharing the full memory) .  It should also be
useful to share _metadata to extend expectations to test process's
forks.  For instance, this change identified a wrong expectation in
pidfd_setns_test.
