fork: Suspend other threads if both RFPROC and RFMEM are not set

Description

fork: Suspend other threads if both RFPROC and RFMEM are not set

Otherwise, a multithreaded parent process may trigger races in
vm_forkproc() if one thread calls rfork() with RFMEM set and another
calls rfork() without RFMEM.

Also simplify vm_forkproc() a bit, vmspace_unshare() already checks to
see if the address space is shared.
